This thread's to share what you're most stoked about in the photo/film world. I know people are busy and have a lot of ideas that they want to pursue, and just haven't quite had the time yet to make it happen. Hopefully posting some things you want to film will help you to create some time to get it done.

To start things off--

- I just got back in touch with a friend that four wheels and is so sick at it. I already have a perfect song picked out and have been picturing the shots I'll get for the last day. Can't wait to start filming.

- Finally picked up a sandisk extreme pro 32gb 95mb/s SD card for my t2i and no longer have to worry about "filming has stopped automatically", makes me feel so much more confident when filming important things

- Just purchased a 3tb hard drive, so all my shits backed up!

share your giddyness

Right on. That would be quite the stoke. I wasnt really expecting to get much better than a 3, but i wanted to say i passed it. I dont really care though, the college i want to go to doesnt require it

Yeah, it's got MF.

I'm going to try it out for a month or two. If I can justify it by then, I might keep it. If not, I'll know how good it is for in the future for if I want to repurchase one.
