[What did you do today?]

I hope my parents are ok. I was at work when the storm swept, it was just hard rain in the city. I ended up staying at my friend's place in Jersey City because the LIRR was suspended last night.

Do you know if the Port Washington line is still suspended? News reports seem to say that it is but it doesn't say that on the official website.

ConEd came today to my parents house yesterday ads today but didn't fix the power yet

I didn't either, damn! It poured at the office for a few minutes, then I didn't even need to use the umbrella I bought.

Fair point

I was thinking about a minute, but I had a look and the the D700 can only go up to 30s anyway, so you are right on the money.

They're both great lenses. IMO, the 1.4 isn't worth it unless you're doing a lot of indoor low light photography. That extra f stop that you gain with the 1.4 isn't very sharp. That being said, I bought one anyway for the build quality.

Since Canon doesn't seem to be updating their midrange primes anytime soon, I'm probably going to be switching to Nikon after Photokina, although I'll still keep my XTi for the 70-200mm f/4.

I have an old nikon 70-210 f4 which works pretty well in manual mode (even though its an AF lens)
