I love the semi annual Triangle Photographer's meetings, but I find them expensive. Perhaps it's the bargains, the deals, or just a lack of self control.
Canon was there with all their toys. The 17-55 2.8 IS is awesome - I can handhold and get a blur free shot at 55mm at 1/4 second shutter speed. Now to find the $1100!
I did get 2 10x21 muslins, rejects of some kind, at $65 each I don't much care. the one has a pattern on the one side that bled through a bit...but much though. I now feel I have a satisfactory selection of muslins. Black, white, blue, brown, lavender/pinkish and greenish/mauve as well as a christmas scenic. Now to find a model and show them all!
I also bought a new umbrella for my studio lights, it matches the one I bought back in march. Good equipment is nice to work with.
Then i screwed the pooch, er, the budget. I bought a lens. The canon 10-22 3.5-4.5. NICE lens. If i wasn't at the meeting all day I might have been able to take some pictures!
All I got was this one of my friends car when I stopped bo to go to lunch.
