Yep, sold to a mate cheap. First impressions between the two is the Canon has slightly faster AF and more vibrant so I might have to start de-saturating my images from now on
So I don't want to be the first to post a photo after those killer ones but I'm looking for some advice.
I shot this tonight for some fun - not really sure what to think of the result.
And my super ghetto set-up.
The stool + box is my tripod since my actual one conveniently snapped. My brother was dropping water into a bowl lit by two desklights and infront of a blue card backdrop.

Thanks for the comments guys!
We did have to skimp on water unfortunately - pack weight was simply too unmanageable. Initially we planned for 4L each but dropped it back to 2L and settled on melting snow, or else, going for a hunt around the hut for any creeks on the second day. Rangers had previously told us water was unavailable but a quick hunt around revealed a small creek near by in addition to a rainwater tank at the toilets.
The boys are looking to obtain a carbon fibre version of the 055 XPROB - drops almost a kg in overall weight!
Kelvin, the man on the right recently purchased two 6 x 24 format cameras (that's 4:1 aspect ratio and offers an image area of 56 × 224!) Problem is though that it pushes central subject content so far back that it is potentially too impractical for many situations. The cameras physical size is also quite alarming too.
As someone well versed in 135 / digital, it's all quite a learning curve!
Definitely pushing 25kg I'd say. I was really happy when I pulled on my pack but soon realized I was yet to strap on my tripod, snowshoes and water!

It's 6 x 17 medium format and takes 120 film producing transperincies of 56 x 168mm ('positives' instead of negatives). The result is phenomenal image quality that can be blown up to billboard size with little loss in quality. Really does put 35mm digital to shame bu t it's 11 times the size afterall...

I may be biased to macro, but I really like this. The only criticism I would have is that it would look way better if it were brighter, say with a yellow bg or something. Nice timing too! I've tried water drops before and the timing is far from the easiest thing.

I was using a very cheap ebay softbox, and a sheet of polystyrene underneath, reflecting some light up into her face. I couldn't actually use a rimlight because the ebay light requires a sync cord, and my nikon D90 doesn't have a sync port so i have one of those hotshoe adapters which does not allow me to use any other triggers etc.
Thanks for the feedback !

Hey all, another infrequent post comin' atcha.
I recently visited Cardrona ski resort in New Zealand for a snowboarding trip with the girly, but after eating some bad chicken at Cardrona's noodle bar on the first day we both ended up rather sick and I missed out on taking a stack of photos I'd hoped to get. Managed to scrape through with this, thus far aside from the normal touristy ones.
Not too sure what I think of it, thoughts?

I like the photo! I think you would have been better off going to coronet peak, and that noodle place is dodgy! We got pad Thai there and it was like chilli bean noodles...
