[QUOTE="stevebobb, post: 154943, member: 13314"] Yeagh the computer laptop i have is not too fast, but its a i5 with USB 3.0 i bought about a year ago..SOO glad the 800 has USB3 very useful. In reality I never found USB3 to be 10x faster than usb2.0.. as they claimed I found it to be 2-3 times faster!! I have just found out that i have some available funds now, and I now can proceed to buy some of the things I need. I am hopefully going to buy the Nikon D800E before this weekend for sure as I have a wedding coming up I am not the photographer, but would be good to practice with the new camera and lens LOL!! At least I can have a beer...LOL I am going to buy probably the Tamron 24-70 f/2.8 VC as I want to take video, It's weather sealed and has been marked as a good lens compared to the Nikon 24-70 f/2.8, the rest of my lenses I hope to buy Nikon probably second hand the 70-200 f/2.8.. New 50mmF/1.8G I would like to get a wide angle lens, but that will be later. I have noted down which lens are best, and on the day we will see what deals i can get...... too... I want to buy Yongnuo 622N triggers and a cheapish Speedlight with commander mode in it, maybe a SB700? And I need some Light stands, might see if i can pick them up second hand?? In Beijing somewhere?? I also have been looking at Camera bags wow the difference in price is amazing, in Wukesong i saw one make of bag "was an exact copy of an original" the shop owners told me it was a copy, and they actually sell the original too for double the price. At least they are honest dodgy tradesmen LOL I wonder how professional International photographers travel on a plane?? ( i guess they can afford to pay extra!!) When I go back to UK, I have no idea how i am going to NOT get away without paying extra luggage weight.. I am only "Mr Economy Class" and only aloud 30Kg and 7Kg hand luggage.. Will be buying a camera rucksack type bag..this weekend too.. Oh and nearly forgot I will look around for a WIDE strap for the D800E Very exiting time for me now... Glenn if i ever get photos anywhere near the quality of yours i will be extremely happy...........Glen your pics are truly sharp and so perfectly clean, do you use a tripod a lot of the time??
