UH OH just been spending!!!

Well slow Saturday for me, so i did the terrible thing and looked at warehouse express!!

an hour later and i have ordered a 24-70mm 2.8 lens (sigma as the canon one is 3 x the price!), a new peli hard case as i have now filled up my other one, a hotshoe flash adapter, 32" reflectors, and a UV filter for the new lens!

I also bough the other day a new 8GB extreme IV compactflash for £45 instead of £105. And a battery grip for the spare camera which i will be getting back next week.

James has now hidden my credit card!!

Re: UH OH just been spending!!!

Find Warehouse Express a bit of a temptation, sent me an email all about the new D700 sounded lovely, just what I wanted, till I clicked on the link and found the price £1999.00 well I am glad it's less than £2000 anyway.

Hope you enjoy your purchases, love things arriving, just like Christmas even if we have to pay for it ourselves.

Re: UH OH just been spending!!!

exactly thats why i wanted the 24-70, as i already have the 70-200 but needed other bits so didn't want to get the 24-70 canon as much as i wanted it, and for the price of that i got all my other stuff too which i needed.

I am tempted by the 100-400 but i think i will get frustrated by the speed of it when i am so used to the f2.8 of the 70-200, so i'm on the mega save to buy the 400mm 2.8 prime will be hiring it in august when james does his track day... although i still have to put down the full asking price as a deposit .
