Got an advance New Year’s gift from Ace yesterday….one of my dream lens. 
I am actually hoping to get an f/1.4 but we cannot afford it yet so he gave me an alternative to that lens…the Canon EF 50mm f/1.8. I love it so much…the narrow depth of field, sharp images, beautiful bokeh and the large aperture opening. I know it’s the cheapest lens in Canon EF series but it is worth the price. Thanks a lot Neyko!

The Velocity 6x is a compact sling pack designed for a compact digital or film SLR with a zoom lens attached up to 5″ long, another small lens or flash and accessories. Inside the main compartment, the camera with lens attached is suspended on two vertical, foam-padded dividers. The Velocity 6x can becarried comfortably like a backpack, but need not be removed to quickly access photo equipment. The well-padded sling strap comfortably distributes the weight and when the bag is swung around to the front, the secure zippered top opens away from the body for fast, convenient access to camera gear. The front pocket has organizer pockets inside to keep a mobile phone, PDA or photo accessories within reach. It also features Tamrac’s patented Memory & Battery Management System™ that uses red flags to identify available memory cards and batteries from ones that are used up. A pocket inside the lid stores filters and lens caps. This pack is also customizable with Tamrac’s Modular Accessory System™ components.
Been eyeing for the TAMRAC VELOCITY 6X camera bag in the internet for weeks now. I was planning to buy it in eBay but was hesitant because it might take so long before it will be delivered here and I’ve been planning to use it during the Kadayawan Festival’s Indak-Indak sa Kadalanan (Kadayawan Festival street dancing) on the 23rd with fellow FPS members. Last weekend, we were at Funtronics in Gaisano Mall to check for replacement battery and CF card that I need for the upcoming shoot. Instead of asking for the battery and CF card, the Tamrac bags on display caught my attention. It’s price is the same as with that in DP Online (I wanted to get one in DP Online but I don’t time to go to the bank to deposit the payment). Hence, after trying it out if our Canon 400D fits in and if wearing it is convenient for me, Ace said “ok, will get it” without second thought. Haha…Ace’ frugal trait didn’t work this time.
The Canon 400D really fits in the bag and since we don’t have extra lens nor a flash, there’s room for my little personal things. And if by chance we can afford to get another lens, I guess it will fit in the bag not unless it’s the long lens Ace has been dreaming of.
