"After DPREVIEW of D800 would you still get the Canon 5d mark iii?"

YES! And I did it AFTER the DPReview of the D800. IMHO, you're either with us or against us.

I placed my order on 4/19/12 for the 5D mark III kit.

They just charged my credit card today and say: "Order Status: In stock, order sent to warehouse"

Was this from B&H?

Ditto! And I ordered mine from B&H on 5/1.

I ordered mine from B&H on May 1st. I'm imagining I'll receive it before June 1st. Hopefully, I'm not being overly optimistic...

CR most certainly increased ad revenue on his site with this non-issue. Good on ya mate!

I just ordered my 5DIII because of the fix! Brilliant!!

[Actually I ordered one because, according to CR, they're coming back in-stock very soon--I hope!]

First shot: Golden Gate Bridge at night. Canon T21 w/Canon EF-S 15-85mm. Tripod? Nah, just rested the camera on a wooden railing.

Second shot: Musical still life. Canon G11, handheld from the front row.

All very high tech!

Software & Accessories / Re: Nik Software - is Complete Edition worth the money?

« on: April 22, 2012, 01:04:14 PM »

I use Define 2 and Silver Efex Pro (SEP 1) as a regular part of my processing routine--and LOVE them both. I mention "version 1" for SEP, however, because SEP 2 does NOT run on my machine--even though my machine (Mac) is well above the system requirements. After the release of SEP 2 there was a LONG thread about the issue on the Nik forum, but apparently the forum has been shut down (someone correct me if there's a new forum site). So my recommendation is to try the fully functioning demos available for download from Nik before you buy and save yourself a possible major frustration.

Site Information / Re: Applaud or smite?

« on: December 16, 2011, 07:17:03 PM »

At what point does one get banned from being smited?  I wouldn't worry about the "applaud or smite" thingy unless there's a "you're excommunicated" number attached to the system. I'm new here and got my 11 smites because I made an innocuous joke about winning the current contest--"I won, I won!!" I wrote (including a winky emoticon ). Smite abusers? Yes there are! Therefore, I'm wearing my smites proudly--11 and counting!
