    Tripod Advice Needed

    It may be worth investigating the Calumet tripods. I currently have their heavy Duty Monopod with their standard 3 way head on it and a Monfrotton 055xProb (I think that's it anyway) with a Calumet Standard 3 way head. Their Tripods and monopods all appear to look very similar to...

    Lens hood / Filter - Canon 55-250IS

    There is a specific hood a Canon ET-60. The Main advantage of a lens hood is that it shades teh lens from strong side illumination which can cause lens flares. There are probably more reasons than that...but can't remember them at the mo!

    PS keeps trying to grab my camera!

    If disabling autoplay on your 40d dont fix the problem, Think that Photoshop Essentials installs an app that spots when a cardreader/camera is plugged into your computer. Maybe called autodownloader. Disable that. prob in PS Essentials options.
