I think spooky was referring to Nikkor 14-24 f/.8 ..Gold ring with nano treatment  biggrin.gif

Ah icic, yeah that one has a gold ring. Very scary when carrying it around. I always have to make sure that I don't scratch the front element. Must keep it zoomed at 24mm at all times to ensure that the element doesn't protrude out. tongue.gif

yeah 5mp model.. but hardware oni 3mp.. 5mp only interpolation ( i dunt understand at all what it means..hehe!!).
the quality is ok.. never expect it to be sharp as original m3..hehe
*
Interpolation means the software makes the original image from 3MP to 5MP. Usually this won't give you the best quality because the added pixels are software manipulated. Its like shooting a 400x400 image and using Photoshop to upscale it to 700x700.

Hardware means the sensor can create up till a 3MP image. smile.gif

Rm6xx also can get liao lo those 24" full hd 1920x1080. mostly those are TN panel want.
Native 24"s are 1920x1200
*
TN Panels, the colour gamut not as comprehensive as compared to PVA and S-IPS mah that is why people pay good money for them.

If you get the more premium ones like those from Lacie, can even pay a lot more sad.gif USD$5000 and above

I have 4gb and 16gb Elite Pro. Both are perfect.  The 8gb cards memang got problem 1. The Sandisk Extreme III cannot be used in 5D2. That is the worst CF to use in 5D2. Cant record 1080p movies 1.

Really? Thats weird, I know my friend uses Sandisk Extreme III 8Gb cards to record video and shoot on her 5Dmk2

Certain batches of Extreme III. Dunno which batch so better not buy it for 5D2.  U google n see the frightening results. Bad stuttering videos n even corruption of still images.
*
I totally agree about the case of corruption of still images. My friend faced that exact same problem while we were on a shoot. Still managed to recover the images though (thank god for that!)

Congratulations on your new 5D MkII, welcome to Canon-side!
Just saw your beautiful "Whitey" (70-200).
Btw, how do you identify: 70-200 F2.8/F4 (With/Without IS)?

Easiest is by size, the F4 version is smaller biggrin.gif

Bag??? Just a CF card pouch holder only la. Where need to stylo milo? tongue.gif

I have about 8 CF cards which I use on a shoot and when you do a lot of shoots with on the spot printing, CF card management gets a bit difficult. With a CF card pouch like the Think Tank Pixel Pocket Rocket, I can fit in 10 CF cards there which is useful.

I got it from my friend in Singapore, only around RM60+. It was on sale if I am not wrong biggrin.gif

The best deal for me was the 8Gb CF cards, RM115 only for each 8Gb card. thumbup.gif

Yeah the new Ultra's replaced the aging Extreme III and Extreme IV although the transfer speeds are not as quick.

Now they have the new Extremes (60mb/s) and the Extreme Pro (90mb/s).

Get the Ultras, worth every penny especially if you buy them in Singapore. You save about RM20-30 if you get the 8Gb and above as you can see in your price lists.

hi.. i mean u verify the speed.. tongue.gif
Try write using USB2 Hi-Speed card reader.. to see whether it really 200x (30MB/s).. although i think it won reach 30MB/s, but at least 10MB/s
*
Mine transfers at 30mb/s but I am using Firewire CF card readers to test them out. Should be the same for high end USB2 CF card readers as well. I know my Sandisk USB2 Extreme CF card readers are rated at 30Mb/s
