The Nikon D70 may
be built better but
the XT has better
image quality and
lower noise.
And you have the
option of getting
a battery Grip
XT can be kinda small
so with this you can
take better vertical
shots and stabalize
your camera better.
You can shoot all day
when you add two
batteries.
A great all around
lens that can shoot
in low light and take
amazing portraits.
Excellent quality,
pro quality lens.23
Gives you an equivilent
of 16-35mm.
Get that photojournal-
istic look with this lens.
A must for a pro.
A must for a pro.
One of Canon's best
lenses. If you got an
extra $400 get the IS
version.
A must for reception
or event photography

One of the best "point and
shoot" cameras on the
market.
Literally the size of a credit
card but
1/2" thick. 2" LCD
screen in nice too.
Takes great
movies.
Rugged metal case.
Dollar for dollar the
best pro quality
camera. I like to use
two of the same type
camera so I can buy
two of these for the
price of one MKII.123
Gives you a more
stable grip when
taking pictures.
The new 580ex is
probably a tad better
but also a $100 more.
If cash is not an issue
buy the 580ex. If you
need to buy more than
one strobe, like myself
(I use three) then the
550ex is a good
solution. When I buy
three, I saved $300.
If you own a DSLR,
you need a decent
flash.
This one is great at
a reasonable price.
For $70 this is great
lens for portraits! and
for low light situations.
It will cost you
$200 more for the
F1.4 but it will let
in almost 2x the
amount of available
light.
A great printer for quick
snaps from your Point
and Shoot digital.
Great for scrapbooker. Fade
resistant, unlike Canon
inkjet printers.
I like this over Epson
because the unit cost per
4x6 is a lot
less, only 24 cents.
Great to take to parties,
very, very small footprint.
A poor man's
85mm F1.2 but at
1/4 the price.
Great for low light
situations or
awesome portraits.23
Great "one lens fits
all" amazing range.
Decent quality, for a
pro, this lens is good
for back up purposes.
Great for family pics,
etc.
A poor man's G6.
Sensor size is twice
the size of a SD400
for superior image
quality. Able to
attach wireless flash
for better indoor pics.
Can use add on lenses
for more wide or
tele options.
Manual Mode for
creativity
A must for any pro
or serious photog.
see your photos in
their true glory and
send your edited
photos to your lab
with confidence-
WYSIWYG23
Show off your pictures
and use this as your
portable portfolio.
Can display video or pics
on any monitor with
RCA inputs.
It also can act as a photo
bank- direct upload from
your camera, no computer
necessary. Great when
traveling. Note: upload
speed is SLOW, should
not be used for pro
applications.
A poor man's Epson
2400. Great BW prints
and archival.
13x19 prints.123
If you want to be your
own printing lab get
this printer, the cost
per print is about
$1 per square foot.
Excellent BW prints.
Museum quality
16x20 prints.123
A must for studio
work or for a
portable wireless
system to fire your
strobes.
A great tool for
studio portraiture
or reliable light
readings.
Good for learning
about light.
Low cost, lightweight
alternative vs. a
Quantum. Recycles
flash quickly,
1sec.
Without a power
pack, your flash
may
take 6 sec to
recycle.
A must for a
pro.
Good lightweight
tripod for ocassional
use.
Gary Fong
one on each
flash.
For portraits using a
little reflected light
works wonders and
if you are in bright
sun, the diffuser is
a life saver.
Good light stand
to mount strobes.
Give your flash
photos a studio
look with natural
looking light.
Best diffuser in the
world!
a must to own.
Great lens for group
photos and wide
angle photos.
One of my new favorite lenses!
This is the best tool
to adjust your camera
on a tripod to get it
leveled or reposition
the camera easily
and quickly.
