Well I'm not much into tele.. I'm more of a regular-wideangle guy :rolleyes: but still..that thing is heavy(thank god my d7000 is metal.. when I used it on my plastic analog and mounted the tripod, I was afraid that the mount would fall off :eek: yes no tripod mount for that lens )

And here comes the question: magnesium alloy weather sealed and really expensive

Or cheap plastic knock off?

I guess I'll pay a visit to the local photo stores to find out..

2. 50mm f1.8

3. 17-50mm f2.8 (crop. Equivelant 25.5-70mm)

4. 28-80mm f3.3-5.6 (crap. Good only for vacation snapshots)

5.70-300mm f4-5.6 ( no stabilization and heavy)
[Off-topic] jaszek:
I'd take 1, 2, 3, and 5. And if a 70-300 is heavy, then idk what my 70-200 f/2.8 IS is.
[Off-topic] dexter93:
I was thinking the same.. except for the 5. I can barely shot at 100 on hand.. I might have to carry around a tripod
[Off-topic] jaszek:
Is that the Sigma 70-300 or Nikkor?

And a tripod wont help you if the models are moving. If you want, I can take a photo of all the gear I took to the boxing fight last night. And I only used 2 lenses. Now I have to go see a chiropractor. lol
[Off-topic] dexter93:
Nikkor... Just like my primes and the 28-80 . The other one is tamron. Since its going to be a shooting, I don't think that they will move much ;)

I made the previous shooting with my 50 (70 on crop) and it was quite good... I'll see... But show me your stuff.. hey this is xda pornography thread :p

I can't imagine how that would feel like.. get well soon

Lol, It's not that bad. The back pain will be gone by tomorrow. I wonder how one of the boxers is doing lol. Once my friend sends it to me, I'll show you a photo of him with me about 3 hours after the fight. And I'll try to do it tomorrow. I have to find all my gear.

I have a huge dilema. My friend from Poland tells me he gave my number to this lady who needs a photographer for may 5th for a bday party...ON ****ING PARK AVENUE. For those who don't know, places on park ave. Are expensive, so that means she has money. I can easily charge her $500+. But here is where the problem is. Its on may 5th. That is a sat. I have to take a day off from regular weekend work (average $150 for the night), but I was going to take a day off anyway, TO GO TO A CONCERT OF ONE OF MY FAVORITE BANDS FROM POLAND. She will probably call me tomorrow, so I guess I have to tell her I can only shoot for two hours, so I can get to the concerts to catch the main event (which I would be shooting of course). So the dilema is ditch the concert and make $500 or go to concert, hook up with chicks, and drink ungodly amounts of beer. I think I just made my decision though. Guess I will sleep tonight afterall.

After I wrote "ungodly amounts of beer" I realized which one I'll do. Ill update tomorrow when/if she calls me.

Why'd they do that?
[Off-topic] jaszek:
Discovery has physically been in space. Entreprise was used for atmospheric tests. It has no engines and was used to test landings after it was released in air from a Boeing 747. And the smithsonian wanted Discovery since it being the National Air and Space museum. Also many people say NYC should't have gotten the shuttle, since it wasn't really part of the space program. Instead they want Huston to get one, since thats where the whole space mission control was. lol

And here is you short cold war era lesson of the day. Next topic, the badass SR-71. lol

I know, I can't believe Houston didn't get one. I think the air and space museum should have one also. But dam, Houston didn't get one.

Did you see the video where jeremy clarkson from top gear was in one of them? Amazing. Also I love the space shuttle, because its so amazing how we can get something so huge, into outer space. And also it looks so majestic, which is a look that no space rocket can match. SpaceX's Falcon Heavy reminds me of a penis.

You like aerospace?

That's what I was going to college for. There was a Boeing plant just outside the city I went to high school at. My junior yr, me and a bud were 2 of like 300 selected to work there. We were paid interns in the engineering dept. They were going to pay my way to Texas A&M's College of Aerospace Engineering. Then my senior yr, 911 happened and lost all funding after the plant I worked at shutdown.

But in the interview, the guy asked me what my dream job was. I said to work in the Skunk Works program of Lockheed Martin. He looked dishuffled and said they have a great R&D program. I laughed and started talking about the V-22 and how the engineers couldn't even write it into the planes programs not to let the rotors tilt faster than 11 seconds (that's why all the crashes at first), then about the vertical take off and landing space ship they had and how it never could get all 4 legs down, it crashed many many times. And went on and on about their program. He said you know your stuff. Said, it's what I want to do, build **** and blast it to outer space. Better know it.

Well a couple yrs later is when I got hooked up with a guy who was working on the Hercules program and they were setting records with their rockets on payloads being lifted to space. I met him through his son after a school fair at UNT. He tried getting me on with them and they were going through budget cuts after the economy went down. Never got funding from them.

Missed every chance I had to go to school for it. Kinda glad now that I didn't looking back. I've had alot of fun and wouldn't have been able to do it if I had worked in the field. Plus now I get Dilbert. And it ain't no joke. That's real. I like working with my hands and can't stand getting paid to sit at computer.
[Off-topic] TheSkinnyDrummer:

Yup, the original plan was to make Enterprise space worthy, but too much had changed between it and the rest of the fleet to be financially viable so they made Challenger out of spare parts and an earlier test airframe.

Along with Blackbird another great bird that no longer flies is Concorde.

I really wish I'd had a chance to fly on her.

My manager at NTL had enough air miles to either fly himself and his wife economy+ to NY and back, or send her economy class and fly out Concorde (returning economy class with his wife). When he mentioned it to her she instantly said he should do it, I just hope he did before they withdrew it from service (should have been given to Virgin rassumfrassum BA gits)
