Wink Oops I did it again....

Somebody stop me! I went to B&H's website today, "just to browse"....

And ended up ordering a Sigma 70-300, a UV filter for it, and a Gary Fong pop up flash diffuser.

Now it's the wait till Thursday that's gonna kill me (if my husband doesn't do that first, LOL!)

I am renting a Canon 100-400mm L lens for a trip this summer, and based off the pictures I have seen on flickr taken with the same lens, you had better keep me away from B&H after I get my hands on it!

I need to get off this computer. I just finished placing another order, this time with Amazon, for a wired remote and a lens hood for my 50mm.

Hahaha!

At least I kept it under $300, all together. Showing off would have been an L lens plus all the other stuff.

Well it's good to know that I am not alone, I walked into Calumet a few months ago to pick up a $14 Rocket Blower and walked out with two mono lights kits, two muslin backdrops and a backdrop stand. I am no longer allowed to visit a camera store unsupervised!

LOL! My husband isn't allowed to go to Home Depot or Lowe's unsupervised.
