Ok guys, I'm about done with my new site and wanted some feedback before I purchase the domain. Here it is.

Questions, comments, criticisms, all encouraged

Site looks good Dillon. One thing, should "Event" on the menu be "Events"? And just a recommendation from my experience building sites, you should have a "Contact Us" on the menu. I know you have the form on the home page, but people will scan right over it, or not even look at it. Just a thought though.

Thanks man, I'll definitely do that

i've been really wanting to get a polarizing filter, but i can't decide if it'd be better to just get one for my 18-135, or get one for my 10-22 and get an adapter for the 18-135. i've heard they're kind of useless on wide angles, that's why i'm leaning towards just getting it for my 18-135. any input? i'd rather not buy two due to their price tags

You could always just get two tiffen ones, they're cheaper than most- albeit prob not as good but my tiffen ones get the job done

Anyone have experience with the screw on fisheye adapters that are all over eBay? I'm looking into getting a fisheye to play around with, but don't think I'd use it enough to justify dropping $300 or so on a new lens... That being said, if the screw ons are garbage then I won't waste my $50

you get what you pay for. Rokinons drop down to the 200 range for a 8mm Fisheye.

Yeah I know.... I'm not expecting it to be as good as a new lens. $200 seems a bit more doable, although I'm still trying to save for a 70-200 2.8.

In other news I was hired yesterday for a paid internship with UVA Media Relations as an athletics and event photographer

buy used, be patient on a good price. you can almost always sell it for what you paid
