So, I have a new theme for Tuesdays. I'm going to feature two items every Tuesday. For now I will be featuring my favorite items but eventually I hope to feature some products from WAHMs.
Today I will feature two of my favorite photography items:
This is the lens that doesn't leave my camera hardly ever. I love the depth of field and it's so much sharper than any lens I've ever used. If anyone were to ask me what one lens I would recommend it would be this one. At first I wasn't so sure about whether or not I would like a prime lens instead of a zoom but I've tried several zoom lenses and I still go back to his lens as my fave. I really think this lens is a must have for any DSLR users. Unfortunately, this lens does not auto focus with the Nikon D40, D60 or the new D5000. For those who have those cameras there is a AF-S version of this lens although it costs twice as much.
This is the camera bag that I use. The size is perfect for me to carry my flash and camera with lens or camera with lens plus an extra lens. I love the fact that it just looks like a normal messenger bag and doesn't scream camera bag. The fabric is water resistant so I'm not afraid if I get stuck at the Arboretum on one of the trails that my camera and gear are going to get all wet if it starts raining. I think it's very well padded and has an adjustable divider. The velcro closure is sturdy although I would not use this bag for silent events like a wedding or funeral since it's pretty loud. For normal out and about though, I use this bag all the time. I think I may get a bigger one though some day so I can use it as a camera and diaper bag since I love it so much.

is that a macro lens? I have one for my Canon which, I have learned, turns out to be the BEST lens possible for my line of work. Love that thing...it to almost never leaves my camera!
...and the bag... so swanky! I must have one! Thanks for the suggestion. :)
no, it isn't a macro lens... I would love to try one out though some day.
