[TJ]

Keen to see what everyone here owns and uses for thier pics

Ill begin:

nikon d70s ,with 18 - 70mm , and 70 - 300mm lens

4 times 1 gig CF cards, and 2 Batteries. Hasnt let me down yet battery wise.

Bugger, I was going to say Easton aluminium baseball bat, but wrong sorta "weapon" :D

My weapon of choice? Bring TJ with me to take photos ;)

[Remix]

Nikon D70s with 18-70mm f/3.5-4.5g IF-ED lens, Velbon Tri-pod and 512mb CF.

Future upgrade would be to grab hold of a 200 or 300mm lens capable of an aperture of f/2.8 (the prices of these scare the **** outta me!) and a suitable macro lens.

I use a Panasonic FZ-30 which is a fixed lens 8mp camera. The lense is equivelent of a 35-420mm lens (12x optical). I have a circular polarised 55mm filter for it and a 512mb SD card

For years and years and years: Sony DSC F707

Now: Canon 30D. Need more lenses though :(

[Remix]

Time to fork out dude :(

Those prices on the 200mm+ f2.8... Ughh.

[FranZ]

Good thing I don't use a Nikon. Saying that, 70-200m L series with IS isn't cheap! :(

[Remix]

Franz, Have you used a lens with IS? Is the focus improvement worth it?

[FranZ]

Yes and IMO it is; especially when slowing the shutter speed down.

Canon 350D with the usual twin lens kit...in retrospect I should have got a 30D cause I do a lot of stuff at the drags but the 350D suits my needs fine really.

Check www.wadragracing.com for some stuff.

as of yesterday i also own a canon 350d twin lens kit :) am very happy with it so far.
