Canon 20-D for sale - http://brian-johns.com/blog...
$300 seems like a good deal, if I were in the market. Good luck selling it!

Awesome. But honestly, RAW = 30 megs per shot? At what point do you consider not shooting RAW?
- Stephen Mack
Yeah - I hear you. The problem is that I never know until afterwards if I'm going to really like the shot or not. I like to have the extra resolution and color information for shots that I really like. For shots I don't like at all I can learn to delete. The problem is the shots that I only sort-of like. For those shots, I'm still holding on to 30 MB forever. I guess I could downsample and only keep a smaller version...
- Brian Johns
Just RAW, or RAW+JPG. You didn't need all that space on your 32GB CF Card, right?
- Neal Krummell
I only shoot RAW, since I can make JPGs later. (shooting RAW + JPG would just make the problem worse!) And no, I don't have 32 GB cards! I'm thinking of upgrading to a pair of 16 GB cards but am holding off for now since it's not a real "need".
- Brian Johns
The problem with RAW is that you can only take a few shots until you run out of space. The quality is great, but if you don't carry extra cards around you'll run out of film.
- Davis Freeberg
"a few" being about 500 or 600 at this point. :-) The other part of the problem is the processing and storage after the shoot. But yet when you get that really great 5-star image and make a 20 x 30 print of it, it all feels worthwhile.
- Brian Johns
So how many 20x30 prints have you made in the last few months? Just curious!
- Stephen Mack
When I took the printing workshop from Charlie Cramer back in June, quite a few. (10 or so.) If I weren't actually making large prints, then the huge filesize would be a total waste of space. Many people like Nikon's approach better, which is making full-frame cameras with 12 megapixels. Better image quality and smaller files FTW. I wish Canon would stop trying to win the megapixel race too.
- Brian Johns
I made a decent 20x30 print from my XTi at only 10MP. $10 a print from Costco made for a nice test run.

Wow... major insurance fail
- Georgia Diehl
pre-existing conditions just as bogus as this one underly the current health care crisis - its the why most uninsured ARE unable to get insurance
- WarLord
Absurd!
- Meredith
"Insurers don't take babies above the 95th percentile, no matter how healthy they are otherwise." So one out of 20 newborn infants is denied coverage outright just by their position in the curve? I didn't think it was possible for me to hate our health system more than I already do.
- Stephen Mack
Imagine if insurance companies could just say "We only insure people in the 95th percentile of health"?
- Kevin Fox
Kevin by the manipulation of Pre-existing Conditions Underwriting that relate to coverage they do that very thing or try very hard only to take "healthy" people in the "X" percentile of health...
- WarLord
I wonder if they also bar infants below the 5th percentile, based on being underweight. If so, that would be 1 in 10 babies that get denied.
- Brian Johns
Sophie is 4th percentile and has coverage, so I guess not.
- Stephen Mack
I think the key to this is that these parents were changing to a new insurance provider. I'm guessing that Sophie has been with the same provider ever since she was born? I'm curious if it would be an issue if you tried to shop for new insurance though.
- Brian Johns
Hmm, good point. Although they didn't try to deny her when she was born and being added to my coverage.
