Tripod or Flash?

[ddt0725]

Hi Brendan!


I just bought myself a 300 f/4 and was facing the same exact question this week...flash or tripod? The flash won and I should have the 580 EX II in a few days [].


So of course, take one off the list put one on the list ...abetter general purposelens or tripod? My budget is forcing meto look at more of the "gently used" merchandise for awhile.


Does it ever end?? [:P]

P.S. I hope you are enjoying your new lens as much as I am! []

Maybe Bryan should start a 12-step program for us on this site!



Hi, my name is Denise and I suffer from GAS! [:P]


Anyway, I chose the flash over the tripod figuring what goodis a tripod if my photos are lacking a great deal from the internal flash I've been using. For me, the tripod could wait until the ice & snow melt in Wisconsin and I do more outdoor shooting in the spring but yes, it is definitely next on my list.


Even though I didn't practice what I preach ...maybe you should go with the 430 which is also really nice and put the cash saved toward your future tripod.
