So lots going on, but Ill drag it out over time as I can.

Sold off the Nikon D300 and switched up to a Canon 5D mark II. This means selling all my Nikon gear and picking up some Canon stuff. A few intersting things I noticed...

My photography is at a point where I own and shoot with a medium format film camera (Hasselblad 503cx), have learned enough about lighting to deconstruct photos fairly well, and really dont care about camera brand anymore. I'm at a stage where composition and creativity mean more than anything else.

So, I wrote my favorite Nikon author and asked him for some reccomdations for Canon authors to which he replied "And there’s never really been as much there [Canon] as with Nikon, anyway." Wow, I guess the brand wars go deeper than I thought.Scratch off favorite tech author for future Canon advice. =^)
 
 So, Im loving the camera so far. It hasnt actually been that big a switch not like moving to a hasselblad. Next move I make if I do will be to a H3D or something like that. Ive always eyed this Rolleiflex. But, that can all wait. Ive purchased a new camera and have shedded some of the gear fever that can run so rampant. Now, I just want it to work smoothly. Funny thing is, thats why I bought a mac! hahaha. Even funnier, I get paid to work on Windows!
