Blogging Experiences

I must say that this assignment has made me much more knowledgeable and appreciative of discussion groups and communities that are readily available on the web. I have found the experience to be absolutely positive with no discouraging or negative experiences to speak of. It has been great to both solicit and receive information as well as provide info for those who are seeking it. I can say, with certainty, that I will continue to participate in the photo discussion group that I have consistently participated in as well as joining other groups for different interests I have and hobbies that I participate in.
Thanks to all that have shared in the experience!

Rental equipment

I have previously posted about soliciting information on various camera lenses that I have been interested in. Even after doing your homework it is still a bit of a gamble to spend several hundreds of dollars on a piece of equipment that you might or might not like. I read a great post from somebody who was discussing how they have rented lenses to determine if they like them or not. I was able to contact this user and get the necessary information to contact this site myself. I am now awaiting the arrival of a lens that I am renting for a 10 day period of time to see if it meets my needs. If I like the lens then the website will apply the rental fee to the price of the purchase.
What an awesome development!
