    Anyone have the new Asus Eee PC 1000HE

    I've had the 1000HE on order with BeachCamera for about 2 weeks. They're due to ship around 3-14-09. One of the primary reasons for choosing the 1000HE over other brands and other Asus models is the battery life, which is rated around 7 hours under normal use, 9 hours under power saving mode.

    Need a camera recommendation for Hardware Review Pics

    If you're doing product shots, most current P&S cameras are capable but where the quality will come from is lighting. You'll want to build a soft box to diffuse your light. Some will use work stand lights. To diffuse the lights, you can use tissue paper, white paper, cloth sheets, etc.

    What are the problems w/ Canon 100 to 300 mm len or 100 to 400 mm lens?

    About the only thing I can think of is that the 17-85 has Image Stabilization and the 100-300 does not.

    It's here, It's here

    Ditto. I held on to my 20D awaiting for the new 5D MKII announcement that was originally slated for the Fall of 2007 but Canon pushed out the MKII release. I got sick of waiting so I sold the 20D and upgraded to the 5D as a back up body.

    Do i need a lens filter?

    I've seen pictures with low end filters on and the lens glare is ridiculous, especially with low light/night photography and the light source is visible in the photos. Even with the good filters (ie Hoya, B+W), flare is an issue. It's just worst with the low end ones (ie Tiffen).

    Do i need a lens filter?

    $50-80 for a decent Hoya or B&W UV filter depending on the size... it's good insurance

    First sensor cleaning job

    I'm using the wet solution/pec pad method, also. Once people overcome the fear of cleaning the sensor, it's very easy. It usually takes me 2-3 passes to clean the sensor since I tend to always get one or two spots that get moved to the edge.

    It's here, It's here

    I do mostly motorsport photography, so the majority of my shots are pans. The video feature adds a new dimension to photo journalism. It is nice to add a video in addition to the images taken at the race track. Most customers/teams/drivers will enjoy being able to see video footage in...
