Default New goodies on the way!

I just got done ordering a few things to add to the bag. Canon 50mm 1.8 (I wanted the 1.4, but wanted to try out the prime lens thing for a while first.) Second battery for my xti, 4gb cf card, and a circular polarizer for the lens.

The stuff should be here by the end of the week or so... I am really hoping I will love that lens.

You will say what took me so long to get this lens, that's how much you will love it!

I sure hope so. I almost went with the 1.4 50mm but didn't want to put out that kind of money and end up not liking the lens.

I got notification that the stuff shipped today too.... sweet!

I'm one of the few people that isn't entirely sold on the nifty fifty...

I'd prefer a 30mm 1.4, myself! Which is why I'm getting one come birthday time in a month or so!
