Show your new stuff

Bolletje · Aug 5, 2009, 01:45 PM

Well, maybe it's nice to have a topic where you can show your new stuff. You bought a new graphics card or a car. You can also post your new dog or a sixpack. Whatever comes to your mind

Pics from yourself are the best of course, everyone can find pics from a product using Google.

So, let us see your new stuff!

If you guys don't like the thread, you can close it. I just thought about it when I saw the off-topic section.

it has a rather petite 1.9 litre diesel engine, so lower nose so you can see, gives a car feel and ride. the back is big for my stuff, crutches, folding chair, tripods, cameras and easel and art gear, it hauls alot of kit!!!

Yeah I bet! Look everyone another fine specimen of auto the you won't see in the states EVER

My new Canon EOS 450D DSLR w/ the Battery Grip that arrived yesterday, and my EF 28-135 f/3.5-5.6 Lens and Speedlite 430EX II Flash

The grip really helps the camera feel more substantial, especially for my larger hands, and also balances out my rather heavy lens a bit better

tsk tsk...
it was much cheaper than anything I could have bought in America and it runs damn site better to than the equivalent type in the U.S. it is rooooooomy.
I can get a wheelchair, all my water colour kit and two easels, crutches, cameras, laptops, sleeping bag, tent, a freezer/cooler wtih adult beverages and it still delivers performance, economy and a decent in dash factory (yes factory) stereo for my 300 dollar selective audio attenuator.

**dj_stick** · Aug 6, 2009, 02:33 AM

I'll be getting a diffuser eventually (it has a built in panel that does the job) but for my club shots I tend to use mostly bounce flash, as opposed to direct

It's his nickname: low-fat.

Senor_Mota · Aug 6, 2009, 06:23 PM

Just got me a pair of these babies to work on my new album -

They work pretty well, but they're kinda cheap. They'll work until these come in -

Can't afford them until next month.

Tyrsonswood · Aug 6, 2009, 06:44 PM

I don't think I've bought anything new for over 5 years............ So anything new I bought would now be old.....

Falstaff · Aug 6, 2009, 09:45 PM

oh, I thought Lowfat were two seperate identities, but merged platonically in one name.

Zardon · Aug 6, 2009, 11:25 PM

Well these aren't exactly new but I figured as everyone was posting their camera's I might as well do the same thing. The Nikon is my favourite camera ive owned and it rates up their with the 5D I had last year (before it got damaged).

Cameras have been all over the world, taken shots of everything from rock stars to rhino in the wild. Used and abused, a bit like me.
