DIGITAL PHOTOGRAPHY what's your gear.

Ok boys and Girls...many in here, i'm sure, do also photography. i found that poeple who tend to do good lighting in CG, have some sort of photography history. SO, with digital technology came digital cameras and digital SLR specialy wich made me VERY happy.... So take a minutes and tell us what you're using.

Mine. i'm a Nikon guy.

Nikon D200 with MBD200.
NIkon SB-600 flash.
Nikon 18-35 f3.5 ED
Nikon 28-105 F3.5 ED. Micro
Nikon 80-200 f2.8 ED

Courtney 2000 Flash heads (two)
Minolta IV Flash meter.
LightForm Lightbox System
Flash Stands...a ton of them..

AND..next purchase, soon i hope, the Nikon 105m Macro F2.8.

When you love a pet, loosing it is like loosing a part of your soul. I lost part of mine on Feb 12 2008. Never will it be the same again.

Hehe, my stuff is rediculously crap in comparison

Fujifilm Finepix S5600, a mini tripod and a polarising filter...

Thats it

Hoping to splash out on a new camera and proper gear sometime later this year.

Fuji S9000 9.0MP 10X Optic, 2X digital, 1GB CF card
Quite a step up from a crappy 3MP I had before. This camera is an in-between. (Has several features of a DSLR, w/o having removable lens)

So far I've been very happy, except for a few flash issues (had to send it back to be replaced. Flash was shooting downwards)
I especially like the macro functions

Other than that, just have a tripod (STILL can't find the damn shoe for it), a monopod for tight spaces, and a mini-pod for spur of the moment shots.

I'm actually getting my first digital SLR for my birthday, a canon EOS 400.

I do actually have a diploma in photography, so I'm certainly better qualified than some so called photographers around.

I used to do quite a few glamour shoots in the early nineties, I had a friend who owned a hairdressing salon and we had some fun, oh yeah....
