have the guide brit, thats what i meant by needing to re-read it. been a while, every time i mean to read it with the camera next to me, it doesnt happen.
agree with the big cards. i have 3 8 gig cards and a 16 gig card making the trip. will be dumping them every evening.
always shoot raw
still fiddling with learning to really make the tweaks in PP, but getting there.
lens selection...that goes back to another thread....odds are ill bring most in my sig, tho not every one will come out to the parks with me every time of course....as for leaving the bag in the room...i dunno. i kinda like having a weatherproof home for the camera when it isn't attached to my shoulder.
little side note, from some recommendations on here, i ended up getting a black rapid strap as a replacement for the stock strap, and i love it. still getting used to walking with the camera behind/to the side, but otherwise, its a great add-on.
