    Good Deal but you should be able to find one with a lower shutter count, not that it really matters, but still. Two of my friends have 5D mkii's with +175k shutter counts and still going strong!

    Also, although I love the grip, I'd recommend not using it unless you need to shoot for long periods of time, since there's an extra battery in the grip. It gets heavy, comparatively, really fast.

      o/course i´ve found some, but i thought cuz the grip is already included i could save some $ in first place as when i´d cop one with lower shutter count and the grip later on…

      found one at the same price, without the bg and with 5000 as shutter count!...also with 1year warranty!...

              I shoot with a Minolta SRT101. I process my own BLACK/WHITE film @ home.
              I'd love to hear judgement and criticisms.


              please excuse the scratches


              off my first roll, not a real clean wipe of the film and some scratches

                  Well I assumed the spots of white on the photos where scratches.

                    Sorry, FACE it was a joke.  My attention was otherwise engaged…..

                              thanks a lot for your opinion dave…
                              atm i´m really thinking about leaving Nikon and jump on to Canon. i´m after a Canon 5D MKII and the 24-70mm 2.8L lens as my every day gear at first...i think this should do the trick as long as i´m not able to cop another lens (thinking 70-200mm 2.8L or sth.similar)...

                              what do you (or others) think of this idea mate?

                              I eventually sold my 24-70 and just have a 35 1.4 now to cover that range and a 135 f/2 in the tele direction.  I do have a few other misc lenses, but I use those two for 90% of what I shoot.

                                    to be honest i have to agree with this, for a one lens combo 35 1.4 is the best, will do almost everything.
                                    but me myself prefers the 50 1.2 thou  🙂
