No really, you'll have to guess...

I'll be receiving the item sometime tomorrow (hopefully, the local delivery services are pretty spotty) and will then add my new toy to my profile page.. Until then we can play a guessing game :)

Here's a hint - I bought it new on Amazon and paid just over 1/2 the MSRP...

A Leica M9...

Tuscan Whole Milk?

C'mon, get real; he specifically TOLD us he got "it" off Amazon for 50% MSRP. I don't know what the MSRP for a boehnehead is, but whatever it is he can't afford 50% of it, because the importation of ivory is a federal offense now.

C'mon now, you should know that no one is going to give 50% off MSRP for a real ivory boehnehead, it must be one of those Chinese made plastic replicas.

Goodness knows I can't get a good shot with any reasonable lens, maybe I should have just bought one of those damned things :)

Based on the hint I'd say the Tamron 90mm 2.8, but considering you've already got a 100mm 2.8, that's highly unlikely.

Happy Birthday though.

Hint: Its faster than anything I own... FPS or Aperture, you'll have to guess :)
12/02/2010 03:54:53 AM · #15
And thanks for the B-Day wishes :)

No way... a 1D? Wow!

12/02/2010 08:12:42 AM · #17
My guess is the Canon 85mm 1.8
12/02/2010 08:15:26 AM · #18
A gallon of Tuscan whole milk???

HA! I can barely keep a relationship working with a woman who speaks perfect English... I couldn't imagine adding in a severe communication gap and trying to make it work.. :)
