I did not like the 50mm 1.8, I had it for a week, and I just didn't like it, so I returned it and my 85mm 1.8 is in the mail to be

here on Wednesday. Have you considered the 85mm? It is supposed to have lovely bokeh... I don't know if I'm any help,

everyone is different, maybe you could find a way to test these lens and find out which suits you best.. :)

Congrats on your huge upgrade! I have the 50mm 1.8 and I'm not thrilled with it. However I've seen some excellent shots

done with it.

I went from the XT to the XSI, and I totally love it! I know it's not the XTI but the upgraded models are great. But like M.

Scott said, if the camera is working well I would work on upgrading your lenses first..

I don't know what the *best* color is, but mine is green :) (like a pine needles or sage-y green). Then again it was an office

before I turned it into my home studio, so... I'm guessing people might say white.

I would agree with John, take your "digi negatives" and either get someone else to do the album for you, or make your own.

There are really cool ways to make albums these days like having them printed into a hardcover book album. Just

something to think about! :)

No worries David, it was helpful- it reminded me to check the past posts. I think I agree with you on the "which lens"

posts..however it never stops me from reading them-hehe :). Steve C. I was at the store and saw the CDs you can print on

and was totally confused on how you print on a cd lol! Your post really cleared that up for me. Thanks! :)

Sorry Dave! I was trying to solve a "discussion" I was having on the matter when I posted, and I didn't even think to look

back at older posts! I'll remember next time. Thank you David W., Neil, Rick and Stephen for your input on the matter! :)

Hello! I'm not sure if this is exactly where I should post this, but here it goes. For those of you who give clients CD's of their images with

their package, how do you label the CD? Do you use the sticker labels, Lightscribe, or other methods? I'm just curious to know what

methods others use. Thank you in advance for your responses! :)

Do you mean kind of like how they make baby/ children books, with the hard pages? I googled it and found a few options,

but I don't know the quality...

I don't know if it just my computer or not, but the photograph looks kind of hazy... if you want it to be right without fixing in

photoshop you probably need better lighting, there are thousands of posts about that on PN, but without knowing your set

up, we can't give the best info... :)

There's Floyd Lamb Park, it's like 20 miles from the strip, it's a really pretty park with peacocks, geese and ducks, Red

Rock Canyon, Mt. Charleston.. there are tons of parks around too if you google it. I live here so the ones I mentioned are

some of my faves. Also on the strip there are unique features that are neat, like the Bellagio Conservatory, Bellagio

fountains, the "Welcome to Las Vegas" sign....etc.. I hope this helps! :)

That's odd, I about wiped my monitor too, it looks very much like dust. I have an Xsi and I've never seen anything like this

in my photos... Sorry, I can't help, but maybe to know it's not the norm is of some help...

At my wedding we didn't have groomsmen...but our photographer had my husband's guy friends lined up and my husband

slightly in front and in the center. There was one were they all did "cool guy" poses (arms crossed, or hands in pockets

with a smirk) then one where they are all laughing and looking at each other like someone said something funny.

Maybe that will help you get some ideas... :)

Ok, this is probably a dumb question, but whatever... how do the instant rebates work? Are the prices shown as however

much discounted, or do they discount when you purchase? I only ask because I was checking out the flash prices and

they haven't changed. All answers are greatly appreciated! :)

It always seems to happen that way, the photos you dislike, other people seem to love. I know it definitely happens to me all

the time!
