I used to have a commercial studio and I was using a camera that Fuji lent me. I can't remember the model. Then I used some of the old doorstop Kodak things. I finally got a Sigma SD9 in 2004 and then moved to the Canon Mark II a couple of years ago.

What do you shoot with now?

AND a 3X tele (yeah, I know) also pictured with the 70-200

here is the kicker though, the 3X DOES NOT WORK with the 40D & 70-200!! It worked fine with the XTi

Its funny that i had almost forgotten that they even exist some older members of my family still use them though.
