Polaroid extension tubes for me. Half the price of the Kenkos, same functionality.

It (and the Nikon D800/E and D600) is ranked higher than the Phase One IQ180? I'm not sure how I feel about that scoring.

Noted and redacted! Hope this didn't cause the website owner any grief.

Found this through another photography forum. Someone seems to be stealing images, applying their own watermark and then posting them on their various Facebook pages: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Spectacular-Images-%E0%AE%87%DC%93-Alessandro-Pinna-ArtGrafik/322984104430849...

I used the pop-up flash on my 20D for a grand total of one photo session, so it probably not suprising that I didn't miss it when I moved over to a 5D.

It's good to hear of some positive encounters with (and in Bernie's case, from) the police!

Probably worth noting that Sigma announced in September that a new 120-300 is to be released.

The cheaper ones often have no electronic contact with the camera, which means no aperture control and no autofocus. I have the Polaroid extension tubes (with AF and aperture control) & can recommend them, they work very well with my Canon 50/1.4.

Depends how much tongue you use... ;) Agreed. I'd only kiss a Zeiss or Lecia lens.

Well, I've had my 5D3 for about half a year now and I'm very satisfied with it. I'm coming from a a 5D, and the 5D3 is everything I wanted from a camera. Pipeline by EchoJohnson, on Flickr

Quite impressive! MadaCup, from the comments:

Thanks!

FWIW, I seem to recall that Reuters have a deal with Canon.

I've been a happy 5D owner for seven years, there's no way I'd sell it or give it up as long as it's functional. HK by EchoJohnson, on Flickr

Johny, you might want to look into Yongnuo flashes, I'm thinking of the YN-460 II model in particular, but someone please correct me if there's a more appropriate model for the OPs needs.
