You have some beautiful, very professional looking shots of your toys in there (the individual shots)!!! Some of the best I have ever seen. Just awesome! Did you take them? If so, what kind of camera, and what lens were you using?

Yeah I took all the photos. Canon 5D with the 50mm f/2.5 Macro. Used a cheapy SV lighting kit and a Metz 44 handheld for all the photos. Then just a piece of poster board for the background. I'll probably be getting a medium format/digital back rig soon so I'll reshoot then. If you think the pictures are good now, prepare to be amazed.
Thanks for the compliments!
I suppose if someone in the LA area wanted me to do pics of their collection I'd be willing to do so for a small fee.

I have been wanting to move to a digital slr and have been lusting after a 5D for a while now. Your ultra clear and crisp pics may help me make a decision.

Only go 5D if you intend to use wide lenses. I think if you want to save some money the 20D or even the Rebel XT are both very good digiSLRs.

Cool! I like canon's lens system the best. You can always upgrade the camera body later but use the same lenses you've invested into. Just try not to change the lenses too often because you will get alot of dust in the sensor.

Yeah, no kidding... didn't you just start up with Japanese Vinyl like just a little while ago? That's pretty good...

um.......one week......when you have money burning in your pocket and a lot of free time, there's no limit.....still missing the damn elusive GID and the Grass Spirit though. Can't wait to complete the set.
Thanks for the compliments guys. I should have time this week to install all the lights.
