The nifty-fifty would be nice as I just got myself one recently (yesterday).I have to admit, I went loco within a few minutes I had it on my rebel. [:)] I'm really looking forward for occassions to learn more of the strengths of this nifty-fifty lens!
Keith,
I keep seeing the Bill Me Later thing with no interest, no payments, but who offers this? It sounds like a pretty neat deal. I "need" a couple of pieces, one of which is currently "with rebate", for my little start-up business.

It is great no problems just make sure you can pay for it in thim or else you have to pay the accumulated interest.
As I said above, you can buy a lens use it for 6 months use, then sell if you choose and then pay off and have lost less than you would have for renting it. Like right now I just bought the 35 1.4L, but I have found that I love it and will keep it, so my least used lens will have to go in the coming months unless things really kick up soon.

So you can only use it when purchasing items on eBay? Doesn't that limit your options as to what you can buy?
No. B&H, Adoram, J&R all take it. Walmart even takes it.
Bill Me Later Electronics
I'd Stay Away from bill Me later. You can get hooked into a impossible situation with effectively a 100% interest.
