I travel quite often for work and have found that while traveling with "odd" things it is a good idea to call ahead of time to the airline and they can give you some guidelines. Some of them will even send you a link to a document that has those guidelines. I also travel with a copy of the document, just in case the flight attendants don'e know the guidelines. If you have status with that airline, it is often much easier than on...

thanks Cab, I've got a D90 also, so you haven't seen any short falls in the sb600?

My clarification wasn't so good. I don't need the Eye-fi app to post photos taken with the iPhone's built-in camera. Let me try again, the question goes to the ad-hoc and iPhone integration. Let's say I'm on a hike (in a 3G service area), I would like to be able to: 1. take a photo with my camera (a Canon DSLR, for example), in which I'm using an eye-fi SD card 2. send this photo to my iPhone (eye-fi card connects...

Sorry, unsupported by Apple. So if you'd like to do that, I would either: Use a MiFi instead (same monthly cost for service) use a Symbian phone use a WinMo phone MiFi would be my first choice, by far...

From what I've heard, the 50mm f/1.2L is better than the 1.4, but not enough to justify its price tag. So unless you need the absolute best, I would go with the 50mm f/1.4. Yeah, I agree that the 50 1.2 is only worth...
