So I found a used T4i with the 18-135mm lens at a local pawn shop. I haven't purchased yet, but what are the thoughts on it?

I don't think you're going to see a lot of difference between that and the t3i that you had. As far as the lens goes, most of the kit lenses are iffy at best. I personally think they are more overpriced than the L-series lenses as far as bang-for-the buck value.

Here's a comparison between the two.

How much are they asking for the camera and lens?

I had a T3 before, no i. :/

Not sure on price, he said he could work a deal of course. Sticker read $615

i grabbed the D7000 during black friday, included an 18-140 lens for $800 flat. i sold the 18-140 lens already for 400 bucks (which was really weird for me since i thought CL people would put up a fight for that price), so i basically now run a 35mm 1.4 prime + my 18-200 3.5-5.6 to take 99% of my pictures

I've been on vacation in Costa Rica over Thanksgiving week. Here's a couple of pictures:

Whiteface Monkey (capuchin)

Sunset at Playa Hermosa

Hummingbirds in Monteverde

The wildlife shots were handheld with a rented Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 L IS USM Lens

The beach was with a tripod with my 18-200mm kit lens all on my Canon 60D. I shot 3 bracketed frames and processed in Photomatix HDR software.

Alright photo buddies. I need a recommendation for a wireless remote trigger for my Canon. There seems to be a gazillion out there and just want some recommendations from people with experience.

HKYStormFront · 12-12-2013, 11:06 PM

unfortunately, i have never used one :\

Do you mean like a light trigger or just a wireless remote? At the risk of showing off my noob-ness, I got one of the amazon specials for like $3 and its worked great. It has a range of about 35-40 feet and has never given me any problems.

Wireless remote to control the camera, not the flash.

Huck · 12-13-2013, 01:24 AM

Ok then yeah, my comment stands. My super cheap remote works great and helps with night shots.
