New Frame
Picked up a Canon EOS 7D today. I haven't picked up a new camera in quite a while and I just didn't like the idea of hanging the 50D on back of the 600mm lens. I think the 7D will sit on the end of the barrel a little better.
I'm trying to get all of my gear assembled and working before we go to Hawaii. I don't like buying brand new gear and then going on a big trip without feeling comfortable with the equipment. By the time we get to Hawaii, I'll have a new camera (7D), new lens (600mm f/4), new tripod (Gitzo), and a new gimbled mount (Wimberley II). So, the trick is to cobble it all together and play with it in the field before we start island hopping. Reading manuals in the field on vacation sucks.
