SHARPIE makes a CD Marker, that is Acid Free. Comes in Ultra Fine. Has a large tip & also a very fine tip, on the same pen.
I suggest CANON REBEL T3i with Kit Lens. Around $700 to $800. Great camera for the price. It is being used in my area by Professionals, believe or not. A professional was asked to photograph a group (60) people, unexpectedly at a Shrine affair. He was their as a guest and did not have any extra equipment. He took the photo, hand held, on program which gave him a 1/10 second exposure and came out sharp enough to get a 16x20 print and everyone was happy. Saved the day. And this was with a kit lens. This is a great camera to learn from and when you sell it to upgrade, you won't loose a lot of money.
Good luck. BVargas
Sigma 8-16mm Lens. Is this a Fish Eye or Linear Lens. How much? Thanks. BVargas
Thanks. Yes Aperture Software is what I was looking for. Did not know if anyone has used any of their books and which one is best, or video?

Just got Aperture. What is the best way to learn this. Video, Books, etc. Would like something like 1st step, step 2, step 3, etc. Thanks bvargas
18-55MM, IS NOT A WIDE ANGLE LENS, WHEN YOU CONSIDER CROP FACTOR OF 1.6 ON CANON OR 1.5 ON NIKON, MAKING THESE ABOUT 28MM ON CANON OR 27MM ON NIKON. CONSIDER INSTEAD ANYTHING AROUND 10MM OR 12MM, STARTING POINT.

Any Pros & Cons on which is better/easier to use? I use Mac and have just gotten Aperture. I see more articles and looks like more are using Lightroom. The main reason I can conclude is, if you are using Photoshop, then you should use Lightroom.
Any suggestions would be helpful. Also what is the best way to learn how to use each. Thanks BVargas
My suggestion is to try LITEPANELS. This should solve the problem. Go to
www.litepanels.comThis is what Hollywood Movie Studios use. It is a constant light source, fits on the cameras hot shoe or light stand and has a dimmer for varying light output. Works on batteries and quite inexpensive, compared to lens replacement. Bvargas
