Actually I would argue that one reason for getting a D700 would be for the ability to use lower end lenses and still be able to shoot low light. If you have F1.4 lenses and are able to shoot low light with a DX camera then you don't "really need" a FF camera (other than to optimize what you can...

Actually you are correct. You don't want to be limited to full open apertures in low light and the only way to do that is to bump up the iso and as I see it, going FF is the only way to do that. DX format just doesn't give you the latitude to shoot low light at anything but full open apertures...

I don't see why most people think its a waste to use DX lens on FF body. You know what is a real waste, to shoot raw at 12MP only to view them on your computer screen. Isn't the main reason for going FF is for superior low light performance? Suddenly you can use all your cheap lenses indoors...

Yeah... and from her pics I can see why its famous!

I am using a small little Sony T10 with the Sony sports pack case. I like this set up because even with the case on its probably no bigger than a Canon G9/10. Best thing was I got the case for only ~$50 from ebay. Its rated for 10ft only though but it sure beats those soft ziplock type cases...

The 18-200VR is a very sharp lens but I just couldn't live with the harsh bokeh compared to the 18-70.

I recently bought a Sony T10 for $425 from Lucky (Arch rival of Parisilk). I find that the Sony T10 is one of the better supercompacts around. Most importantly for me is you can use the optical zoom during movie recording! Only problem is you have to fork out extra for the stupid memory stick...

I think that 6 inks photo printers are a min for photo quality prints. I have an old Epson 1270 but still gives good print outs. Ink cartidges are the major cost so I go for reputable third party. One thing I realised from experience is that the third party ink cartridges are never as good as...

Just as a follow up to my initial post, I realised that the problem only occurs with RAW images. JPEG are fine. I think iPhoto initially opens the jpeg thumbnail of the image which is fine but when it processes the RAW image, some how the difference in monitor profile causes it to screw up and...
