Okay, did some major damage yesterday on amazon.com. I finally got around to ordering what I consider to be my essential photography gear: 50mm f1.4 lens, battery grip, external flash, an extra LI battery, a remote, and a bigger camera bag to put it in. Can't wait to play with it all. It's shipping from 2 different places, so one order is going to take longer to arrive. In fact, not until the beginning of July will it be delivered, so I had it shipped to KC. The second package with the most important item (my 50mm) will arrive hopefully by the end of this week or the beginning of the next. I'm so excited I can't hardly stand it!
