Starting my own business. Any tips on how to name it?

[LoneSierra]

So I should end up with...


Canon 10-22mm 3.5-4.5 IS, Tamron 17-50mm 2.8 IS EX Di II, Sigma 30mm 1.4, Canon 24-105mm 4.0 L, Canon 70-200 2.8 IS L, and Canon 100-400 L. I will probably pick up the Canon 100mm 2.8 Macro and eventually the Canon MP-E 65mm x1-5 Macro lens. And THEN I'll consider the 50 and 85mm 1.2 L's...


I really need to do some research and start to do what you're doing.

Yeah, I'm kinda waiting to hear about that new 100-400....see if it comes to fruition or not. If it does, I don't want to have already purchased the older one!


The 10-22mm doesn't have IS though. I'm debating on the macro lens. I want the magnification of the 100....but I want to be able to use the lens for other things due to the nice aperture, and the 60mm is more hand holdable. So, I'm still up in the air about it.

Oh jeez...


I've been kinda mushy headed lately (allergies) and I've lumped "IS" in with it's "EF-S" description in my head. People are going to think I don't know what the heck I'm talking about with that lens. [8-|]

It doesn't matter. We're all kind of mushy-headed, one way or another.


I wouldn't mind having an EF-S 60mm macro for the benefit of it's compactedness. Very easy to carry around. Having working distance is nice. Little weight and volume is nice too though.


I want a 135mm f/2 more.... 17th street photo coudln't exchange my defective copy, as they were out of it.... Where's B&amp;H!?

[Cory]

B&amp;H is only (so far as I know) in New York. I just mail order from them being on the opposite side of the country (every once in a while I find someone cheaper - well, that I think is legit - but not often enough to bother anymore).


Here's one of the 2.5 second hand held shots I took with the 10-22mm...

I'm impressed you got something we can recognize from that scenario!

[LoneSierra]

You took that hand held for two and a half seconds?? If so, that's honestly ridiculous....were you leaning on something to stabilize yourself?

[Cory]

Yes, I was laying on my back, elbows on the ground.


Here's an interior shot taken in-flight (hard to stay steady) at 1.0 second. You're looking at the top of the ball turret, ammo feeding into it. Not quite sure what the yellow 'tank' is. Possibly either simply for oxygen or maybe oil for the machine guns?
