At the Henry's photography show I got some 250 w/s opus lights, 2 of them, 1 soft box, 1 umbrella, and I got a Lowepro slingshot 200.
next up is a speedlight, probably the 580 ex...

Anyone here a lighting expert?

marty...will you offer passport photos at a reduced rate than walmart...lol. the sigma 10-20 is a great buy....most reviews on it are very positive plus it is a well built product.

good luck with everything man.

Opus makes a 32, 42 or 36x60 oval
sounds like you got the 42


Sal, a little slower than i'd like, but still a very sweet lens
whether i replace it once the Nikon 14-24 comes out remains to be seen
and hey, what would you need with a passport, aren't you here illegally???

the reflector isn't by opus, only the light kit is...
i was at pacific mall yesterday, one shop had the 10-20 sigma for $609. I was seconds away from bartering with the guy and buying it... but i left. i'll save up for 2 lenses, the 10-20 and the 28 /1.8 and go back with cash...

LBA has struck me again. I now have a Pentax-A 70-210 F4 Macro Zoom. Looks like bazooka, weighs a ton but has superbly sharp pictures.
