I'm back to the real world finally. Got a 5dii and have the hugest pic dump to edit/upload.

Anyone have a 24-105 they want to trade for a mint 17-40+cash?

 

 

Went to the tCruise event today.

 

new tc? front looks a bit like my wifes honda accord

 

Jon, your pics made it look so much better than it really is.

 

 

To be completely honest, I don't think they topped the 1st gen. This car is more of a side step.

 

the front and sides i can imagine has a good remedy by changing bumper or lip kits but the rear i cant imagine anything can be done to it.. the tails and the hatch i just cant stand it, i dont even know why they a have to make a new uglier one lol

 

I reallllyyy want a D7000 now. Can anyone speculate how low the price will be at a cheaper retailer once released?

 

Looks like a XD front behind lol

 

Wait until after Christmas. Because right now you're going to pay MSRP. I read on Nikon Cafe that the day Nikon released it, all the pre-orders made it shoot up to the #1 most popular DSLR on Amazon.

 

Carbon, awesome shot of carcillo. The stache is back.

 

Jon, I'm PMing you about the D90. I have a thousand questions about it now but one or two I'd like to ask you since you use one daily...

 

 

^ I can't figure out what that is lol..

EDIT: Oh.. peeped the flickr. I got it now.

Anyone want to suggest what I should upgrade to from the D40? I'd like to stay under $1000 and also get some nice HD video recording. I'm currently thinking about the D3100 (even though it has no remote feature), the D5000, the D90, and maybe even picking up the Canon 500D. Suggestions appreciated. :D

 

D7000 if your going to be able to find one. Or as soon as the D7000 comes out grab a cheap D90. I upgraded from the D40 to the D90 and never regretted it. Only thing I wish the D90 has was continuous AF for video. But Its not worth upgrading to the D7000 for it.

And yeah, the pictures above is the valvetrain from a big block. Huge stainless valves, Double/honeycomb valve springs. 454 bored to a 496. Fairly large cam. Going into a 72 Chevelle. Should be running next weekend.

 

^ more pics on your new project?

 

Its not mine. It my best friend's dad's car (hes like my Dad though lol) Those are all the recent pictures. I'll have more this weekend when she gets running.

 

serious question, 7d vs. 16-35. Which one would you get?

 

^ what body are you using currently?
