Perfume (still life)

Well those 2 lenses alone will see me through 95% (bar macro) of everything I need pretty much and they are flagship lenses so won't ever need an upgrade for them =)

I did consider IR but if you've ever been to Gosport you will see there is nothing really here to make use of it and they don't come cheap those IR filters ! - Having had a cheap one before and experiencing nothing but carp IR !

Your kidding arent you ? I think everything you have photographed outdoors would look great in infra red. If you would like you could lend my 58mm hoya R72 to see if you'd use it. I get no use out of mine. But trust me, I really do live in a non photographic town!

It's probably because of the cheap one I had before that put me off it to be honest but with time I'd probably get into it again.

No lenses here that have a 58mm thread either but thanks for the offer!

Oh yeah of course. Nikon a 60+ mm Thread ??
I'l give Nikon's that. They cant half Infra red a lot better than the Canon's can.
 
Yeah the d70 is a good cam for IR but the d200 is said to be not so good, it makes up for the lack of sensitive IR by getting skin tones and detail extremely accurate according to various comparisons I have read.
 
the sb600 functions as a slave in ittl mode but the sb800 has master and slave, I suppose could get the 600 first then get the 800 when the function is needed but postart have a studio optical light set where the 800 would be put to good use as an optical master..unless there is something massively sinister I have mistook on :S

800 also looks nicer </girly mode> :p
