It is fascinating reading discussions of debates that happened in the 19th century to find that they still go on today. Only now they are on flickr instead of in the salons of Paris!

I think that applies to all of us to some extent or another. I've been thinking about precisely that for some time now. I have given up buying camera magazines and reading books by celebrity photographers. Now I do my research on the blogs - much better, more original and not trying to sell product.

I know photographers that would have absentmindedly left the toddler somewhere but would never lose as much as a gel. Suspect the consensus here will be great excuse to get the sb900. I already have my excuse and that is I'm still using a sb600. Sorry to hear that.

Good luck on the SB-900 :) And thank you for posting a link to your Folding Grid, I actually found it back in october. But when I started my own DIY things I couldnt find your page.
