    ps...just ordered three CPFs, a 58, a 52 and a 62. should cover all my bases. I am pumped. hopefully I can start posting a few photos by mid july, as I retire then, and want to do some hobby photography.
    You know, by getting a stepdown/step up ring, you could get away with buying just one CPL. I recently bought a 77mm filter, and step down rings so i could use it with my 58mm lenses too. They only cost a buck or two!

    Well I use a Hama cheap circular polariser and it works all right. They're getting expensive as you go for larger diameter of the lens so mine is 58mm and works on kit level lenses only.

    btw. my two primes

    70-300: sell it and buy the 70-200 F4 (at least)

    I am guessing you have a Canon...

    Got a tripod today, Giottos MTL9251B Pro Aluminium Tripod With MH5001 head. Really like it as its taken away my shaky hands especially with the 500mm, should really improve on my low light shots like today after work.

    Private Pyle - very inspirational, my next leap will be people (buildings are sooo much easier).

    This is Harry of Harry's hot dogs, last day of buissiness, the city is demolishing his building, along with others, to make a plaza (?) He is 100 yrs old and (until last week) worked the shop every day.




    And talk about geeking out. - thank you Breakfast....
