Have you tried craigslist?...usually the photography community that sells on CL is pretty legit, I've come up on some crazy steals through there

I've browsed CL listings in my area but haven't really found anything remarkable. The prices fall pretty close to the Adorama prices, but the thing is I'd have to pick up. I'm at school right now so getting it shipped to me is really my only option.

I buy from B&H which I assume is sort of the same and I just like the free ship and free tax. You save on that at least. Craiglist is fine but the steals I see always have damages on the lenses. For whatever reason, I just like buying new or new condition things.

You can also try the MP over at POTN bro, amazing people there and also good deals...as long as you are careful and not too picky as far as aesthetics go on lenses (meaning dings, scratches on body not glass, missing box, etc) you can save hundreds on really good lenses, flashes and even cameras....you can also offer up a trade.

Wow, didn't realize B&H had free shipping and no tax. The used lens on Adorama plus shipping and tax comes out to about the same price as a new lens from B&H so I think I'd rather get the new lens for a couple dollars more. I thought I'd be saving more than that by buying used, but I guess that isn't the case. I'll be placing my order with B&H soon. Thanks for the suggestion.
Thanks for the input man, but I think I'll be going the B&H route. I'll keep your suggestions in mind if I'm gonna pick up anything else in the future.

It's been months since I've gone on NT. Perhaps posting some photos would get the ball rolling. First two were taken on the streets of Downtown San Diego, the one of the flag was taken at the La Jolla Cliffs.

Hell yeah! I mean, I don't see why not. Beautiful scenery (Landscapes and women. haha), great food, friendly locals, etc. I mainly go to Medellin which is where my family is from. Other popular places for vacation are Cartagena, San Andres, and Santa Marta, and a few others. Look into it, I'm sure you'd have a good time.
Few more...

Nice video

A couple of questions; did you use flash on that picture you edited? Also, do you use presets within LR5 at all?

Thanks bro, yeah I used flash, I'll try to make a video explaining my method and settings for taking that shot and the way I try to maximize the most out of ambient light....I don't use presets within Lightroom...what I do is copy my workflow from one picture and paste on to the next one..,the only other setting that usually needs adjustment after that is minor tweaking on the WB and exposure, this ensures a consistent look throughout your shots....you don't want every other shot to look completely different specially a wedding bro
