The reason why I went with D70s (first camera) rather than the XTi was the feel of Nikon. It felt like it was higher quality even though the price is the same. XSi might be different though. The only Canon I would only buy is the 1D series :droool:
Yeah rolling shots are usually lowest ISO you can go. Unless it's at night, which is hard to do.
Have fun!

"have faith; will travel."
no one's leaving until the 19th (or the 20th), so still plenty of time to sign up.
and even if you don't get to make it, check out the socal CL section. plenty of general mayhem... i mean... meets and get-togethers going on.
again, welcome to CL, and fight on!

As for Scion not doing so well—Well, sales have been down across the whole automotive industry, and of course, Scion is included in that- An example of that is most recently, for August 08, Total Scion sales for the month was 11,681 (94.9% of objective and sales to availability of 55.7); down 18.4% vs. August 2007.
But, Scion as a brand is very strong-- Two of Scion's main objectives since launch were to bring new customers into the Toyota family and to attract a more youthful buyer. At 5 years young we are succeeding in those two areas with 73% of buyers being new to Toyota and a median age of just 32 years old. No other automotive brand even comes close to those numbers =)
Also, Scion does a lot of events to reach out to the young demographic we are targeting and just to give a little example of the amount of events put together by Scion- for the month of August alone, Regions and Scion Dealers had a total of 96 events!!!!!!
Sorry for the little essay there but, hey I work for Scion; What’d ya expect heheehe
2slow:
I had a pre-owned 06 IS350 and it had scratches and scuff marks on it (ick) and as much as I LOVED that car, the payments were kind of high (esp for being used) and the mpg wasn’t that great- On top of that I started paying back my student loans, which takes a fat chunk out of my bank account each month, and so I picked a new 250 to keep the payments a tad bit lower this time around =]
But I miss that 350!

TRDRAV4: You work for TFS??? Really?? What location? hehe the jobs aren't that hard to get...but you do have to endure a lot of "bootcamp" in the call center before you can move ahead *I call it bootcamp because hearing customers complain starting at 5am everyday just wasn't my cup of tea haha*
JKA.nyc: Haha I know, I had 2 tCs =/ Basically its all been thought of, unfortunately to increase power, it'd be best to use a RWD platform, which means a nice increase in price- Scion is trying to keep the costs below $20k so that wouldn't work with for the Scion brand-- but its ok- we have the Toyota-baru RWD sports coupe coming out soon

I would be leasing an IS too now, but then I wouldn't have any money left over for a roof over my head

*Sits back down*
TRDRAV4: hahah Kaz is (for 3 more days anyway) my supervisor!!!!!! Hahahaaha
I started as an MT at TMS, but then realized I didn't want to go out to the region, so I opted out- and I ended up in the Toyota call center (misery in its purest form haha ok I'm exaggerating a tad bit there), the after interning in the Toyota call center, I moved to Scion's call center and in 3 days I'll be moving to the Scion headquarters building as a Customer Services Analyst (ooohhh I like the sound of that!)
At times I wish I could just buy the IS so I could go all out and mod the crap out of it....but having the lease is nice too-- insurance, registration AND maintenance paid for by TMS...gosh what more could one ask for haha

Working Customer service does suck unless you are always cheerful lol.
My office is undergoing renovation so I sit in a cubbie beside the customer service folks, man they are like human punching bags :/

I've noticed that after a year in customer service, my tolerance for stupidity and my patience level have both gone down...a lot. Ugh
