I know, I read it wrong. I thought you said you saw it hold all of his stuff and all of your stuff.

I just wanted to shamelessly say how big my lenses were, even though they're not.

dude u should definitley get the filters. No lens should be without a UV filter at least and the polarizer is just an all around amazing filter.

Make sure they're quality filters though. Cheap ones will make your pics look like poo.

they are the good stuff. I've checked all the gear personally. I wouldn't advertise something that I wouldn't buy myself.

Make sure they're the right sizes first. Your 18-55mm needs 52mm filters.

The 52mm filters would be good for all your basic starter lenses, 18-55mm, 55-200mm, and 50mm. So those lenses are pretty versatile.

I understand the reason for it. I'm the same way about giving details on my rear seat delete. I figured out how to make it, measure it, etc. Even after selling it, I've only told one person about it, and that's because he asked and then respected me for not giving the info out. ____ the others who laughed at the reason for not giving the info out, I laugh at them for being too stupid to figure out how to make it.

its the amount of work you put in to it! Setting up the rig takes about 20min then the actual shooting time is around 10min, then you gotta repeat the whole process again for a different angel. then you got all the PP work to deal with. its a lot of work!

Exactly. And people expect you to just cough up all that work for nothing lol. It only takes a little imagination on how to build it and is VERY simple to make.

why do you carry so many lenses that basically cover the same length??

Never know what I'll really need. I'm going possibly replace the 18-55mm, 55-200mm, and 18-135 with an 18-200mm.

wouldnt be a bad idea. i want to replace my 18-55 and my 55-250 with the 70-200. then pick up an old 20-35 for wide angle. has anyone used those old 20-35's?

also, i found a 20D for 200$ it was a backup body for a local photographer. i am going to inquire about it, but is there any pros to replacing it with my rebel? the higher fps is nice, but everything else?
