Adobe CS 5 already?

I just got an email about Adobe CS 5 launch event on Monday, April 12, 2010. When I think about it, I’m still using CS 2, suddenly feel like I’m so outdated. Actually, I haven’t really follow up what new and improve features since CS 2 because I think CS2 is good enough for me now. May be in distant future I will upgrade to like CS 10 :p

Picasa 3.5 is tool that I used the most of the time – on day to day photos and possible light adjustments. It’s easy to share photos with other on web picasa. I’m just started using Lightroom 2 on specific projects only. However any major editing, I use Photoshop still including sharping the photos.

Watch out on craigslist seller

Well, I’m active looking for couple of use lens and flashes. Last week, I found one of them and I’m so excited. It’s 28mm f1.8 and the ad said for $300 cash.

With excitement, I head down and drive for about 30 mins to get there. First time, I saw the lens (inside seller house and pretty dark too), it feel a bit different then the one I used before. (I borrowed from Loo). But I continue to check the len to make no scratches on the glass itself. Looks pretty clean but body a bit scratch. No problem, I thought as long as lens is clear. So pull out my Canon 7D and starting noting couple of interesting:

1) When it focus – it making a lot of noices
2) I was not able to manual focus it during auto focus?

Then that when I start wandering about this lens. What the heck, I thought and let me at least try it on the camera. So I start shooting and adjusting the aperture and realize it only go to 2.8 and I was like … WHAT the. This is not the lens I want. It’s different lens.

Then I told the lady this not the lens she mention in craigslist and  she pretend she duno about it and I could feel she start react a bit different now…. anyway in no time, I just return the lens and say Bye to her. This new lens cost < $300 and she sell it as $300???
