This bag is the largest of the shootout series and in all black.  Large enough to hold a 17" macbook pro - along with body and lenses.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That leaves us with the Tripod head ... this is an excellent starter head ... a bit more stable than a ball head.  The 804RC2 comes in the original box with all the parts ... head, plus three adjustment handles.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Feel free to contact me by phone if you have any specific questions about the items I have up for sale ... I accept payment through PayPal &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;ONLY&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5152147377868925937-4108939738244143581?l=blog.seraphicimago.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://blog.seraphicimago.com/2010/05/used-gear-available.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Robert J.

Included some new things, implemented Google Mapping - for location ideas ;) &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm multi-tasking pretty heavy right now, with classes at the local college campus, and trying to get this business of photography thing off the ground.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The new website lacks a portfolio/gallery component.  This is forthcoming, as I have several thousand images to sort through ... gotta pick out the best of the best for show.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I recently acquired a few things to help with my portrait work ... such as a portable back-drop kit, and materials for backdrops ... I've been hitting area furniture places and second-hand shops trying to find the perfect posing bench/stool/chair.    I found one, but it was a little outta my budget ... a rather beautiful antique slip-chair for about $200.  So that quest continues.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I noticed today that &lt;a href="http://davidejackson.com/"&gt;Dave Jackson&lt;/a&gt; is now offering a couple 1-day &lt;a href="http://davidejackson.com/workshops/"&gt;portrait workshops&lt;/a&gt; at his new studio in Appleton, WI ... I so wish I could make that trip ... but alas, the scheduled dates don't match my current class schedules :(&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5152147377868925937-8055124027836995297?l=blog.seraphicimago.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://blog.seraphicimago.com/2010/01/website-up-and-running.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Robert J.
