When you import your images from your card, LR2 has another option to make a second backup copy of the files which you could store on your external drive. So you can do the whole thing in one operation.

LR2 is well worth the money. Since buying it, I rarely use Photoshop any more.

The only annoying thing about it as far as I'm concerned is that it's catalogue file can't be stored on a network drive.

A even better buy, just ordered 6 sets

If you pay close attention the Sanyo Eneloops are only 1.2V while the Camlinks are 1.5V with slightly more capacity

If you look even more closely Brian, you'll see that the Camlink packaging actually says "For 1.5V applications". They are not 1.5V cells, they are 1.2V, just like all NiMh cells. Also, do they have a very low self discharge like the Eneloops which will retain up to 80% of their charge (if unused of course) after one year.

Why is the Vulcan camouflaged on the underside?
So that it can be hidden upside down in a wood, silly. Actually, it's cammo painted on the top too so it can be hidden either way up in a wood.

The Calumet and Manfrotto umbrella adapters look nearly identical except for the brass insert in each end.

Replacement cost is what you need to insure for. Chances are though, if you haven't got a receipt for any particular item, the insurer will try to avoid paying out.

Take a photo of everything showing serial numbers.

I have two Sigma lenses, a 70-300mm APO Macro and a 135-400mm APO. In Lightroom both lenses show only as 'Sigma'.

I am just a bit disappointed that my friend and I both with the Sigma 10-20, I with the Pentax version he with the Nikon version, manage to have such a different experience.
That's got to be a criticism of Sigma, not Pentax. Sigma reverse engineer Pentax technology to incorporate into their own thus avoiding the Pentax licence fees.
