Not an easy choice. I really like all of them, but I chose 1,2,5,7,8,9.

In general I like it a lot. I don't care about model softness so much. I think in some portraits it's OK. But like others have mentioned I would use bigger f and slower ISO.

The more happy I am because these awards proof that Ken Rockwell in his review Pentax 645D
revealed himself as ignorant rather than a pro photographer. This self proclaimed photography guru is wrong in more aspects of photography and I think he's more suited to review PS cameras.

Hi, I need any user feedback about this Sirui tripod. It's very difficult to find any reliable customer reports on reliability, customer service, overall quality, rigidness, vibration dampening etc. Any comparison to Gitzo, Manfrotto, Benro, Feisol?
I'm looking for a lightweight, strong, eye-level tripod that will fit carry on baggage so no longer than 19 in. when collapsed. My budget is now no more than $700 for legs and ball head. After a long research this Sirui 2204 and 2205 are best choices for my needs.
I'm open for any suggestions. I need it asap so please don't tell me to save more for Gitzo with RRS. My budget is not flexible now and I prefer to get better legs and change ball head on better one if needed later.
I have found a few posts on different forums like: "I just got a new Sirui legs, they look great, will post more feedback soon". And than not a word more. I emailed some of these guys and no respond last two months. Do they regret their buying decisions?
Will be really grateful for any info.

Hi Jim, no my constant problem is sinusitis. I've diagnosed otitis after examining my friend long time ago, during my college time in Poland. When my friend went to the laryngologist who confirmed everything including suggested medications he got so impressed that he gave me that nickname. By the way, I'm not a doctor (my sister is), I've just red a good part of very thick book about otolaryngology. Do you have a medical background or you are just fast google user? Very few people know what my nick means.

Hi Kenny, if the clean install is not possible than maybe you can try this free soft Easeus Disk Copy - Free software downloads and software reviews - CNET Download.com
If you are looking for a cheap backup drive you may check Costco. They require membeship card that is min. $50 a year but maybe you can find someone from your family or friends who already is a member, if you really are on the short budget. The great thing about Costco is their return policy and very good pricing. Any electronics even TV's, computers, cameras etc. you can return within at least 3 months or longer, no questions ask and no restocking fee. So if you buy a portable HDD that doesn't work for you, or for any reason doesn't meet your demands you have comfort of this "extended try period." If you already know what you need than most safe place to look for a deal is of course B&H than Amazon, newegg and J&R. You can buy from Costco online or your nearest location will be probably in Clackamas. Wish you good luck with your laptop.
