Thanks, guys. What ever works...I just didn't want to overwhelm one thread with a bunch of images :) A couple were shot with the MP-E, most...

Many Nikon shooters are hoping for a lower res FF body, and a 24mp D600 may certainly answer many prayers, assuming it's spec'd well in other...
I've had mine for a couple weeks now and, apart from the small form factor, it's one of (if not the) best cameras I've ever used. Overall the feel...
Just out of curiosity, why not? While I'm sure Corsair makes fine products (I've got a 750 in my home rig) the 430 you listed has got the same...
I was thinking about an APEVIA ATX-CW500WP4 500W, which is really cheap ($20) and relatively quite. I'm open to suggestions though.
I understand that, but an on-board gpu isn't going to float when it comes to gaming, will it? I hate consoles, so I'd really like to use the HTPC...
Like I said, I'm just looking for some light gaming--MW2 and the like, nothing super intensive. I'd really like to keep it at or under $150, but...
What about the HIS H467QR1GH Radeon HD 4670? Adding that and making the above changes brings the rig to right around $1200...
Woops! That was my fault--the i3-2100 is listed right above the i3-550 on newegg. Re. the SSD: that was the idea :) I was thinking about using my...
Alright, so say I sub the i5 for an i3-550, which GPU should I look at? I need something relatively small to fit comfortably in the case. As for...
I've been thinking about building one for the past few weeks but I can't really get around the cost. I'm basically looking at right around $1400...
Since those are the only two Micro Nikkor 105/2.8 lenses I know of that predate the 105VR I'd assume so.
I already did that for him...
I actually prefer 1, and not just slightly, but by a landslide, even though I find the composition to be off. If there was a bit more headroom I...
The lens Greg bought does only go to 1:2. Lookey here. This is the 105 (non-VR) version that does 1:1. And I hate to include this but there is...
FWIW the Sigma 50/1.4 was the most finicky and frustrating lens I've ever used let alone owned, which sucks because it has so much potential. I...
It's actually 80mm FF equiv. on APS-C ;) But yes, I agree--best to try them for yourself if possible.
The 50/1.4 is better than the 50/1.8 is every aspect--it's built better (good, not great), it focuses faster and more accurately (again, not...
