I buy PNY flash drives for family members who visit us so they can share full size files taken with my FX camera. This was another deal Best Buy notified me by email - I ordered it online and picked it at our local store in an hour. A bargain priced flash drive, smaller design, easy to carry.

We needed a basic white, medium-small size, 1000 watts max. microwave replacement and this fit the bill. Also our new Sharp microwave does not have an audible slowdown when our toaster is in use at the same time - this had been a problem with our old unit.

To end constant wi-fi resettings due to dropped internet signal, I opted to ditch wireless in favor of a hard wire connection for my wife's iMac. This Insignia cable was an inexpensive solution to a frequent headache and saved us from having to update our year and a half old modem. No more lost signal/constant resetting and better signal strength.

I have used SanDisk CF 8MB and 16MB cards since 2008 with Canon and Nikon DSLR's without a single failure. Due to the larger RAW files of my Nikon D800e, the increased capacity and faster downloading of the 32GB Extreme Pro 160M/s CF cards is much appreciated.

Lightweight lens, sharp, low/no distortion, at a bargain price. This is my walk around lens, sharp as a 50mm normal lens without distortion - another advantage is the 10mm of extra reach and its close focus capability is useful for copy work or an occasional close-up.

Quick release plates save a lot of time in the field - I have been using Manfrotto 200 PL quick release plates for 10 years and leave one permanently attached to each of my DSLR bodies, on my heavier lenses such as the Nikon 70-200mm f2.8 VRii, and even flash units & remote synch cords. In the past I used this accessory with a number of light Manfrotto tripods with pan & tilt heads; recently I coupled a new heavy duty Manfrotto MG ball head with my old 12 lb. studio tripod that uses the same 200 PL. Best Buy has this accessory in stock and for the best price.

The Insignia TTL Synch cord for Canon is a worthwhile purchase, my only regret is not having bought it before. At a camera store, I had paid $45 for an aftermarket remote cable that turned out to be too rigid and too short for comfortable use with my Canon 6D + 430EXii strobe for macro & bounce flash. The Insignia is more than twice the length, much more flexible while costing about half the price of some aftermarket cords and only about 25% the cost off a Canon cord.

I am planning to buy the SBG6580 modemnto replace the SBG860A that I am currently renting from TWC. How reliable is the SBG6580 modem? Should the SBG6580 increase my internet speed?
We bought (saved money by not renting) an SBG6580 a few years ago, during which time it has worked with no problem that could be attributed to the modem: with one computer wired and one wi-fi. The one wi-fi issue was due to the computer chronically failing to retain wi-fi settings; I eventually opted for a wired connection. Regarding wi-fi: we have had guests from Aruba, Colombia, and Argentina who have used this modem with smart phones to keep in touch with family members and never had a problem. Where we live internet speed (Comcast) gets slow on holiday weekends, etc. - friends from other parts of town report complain slower speeds at those times si again, I cannot blame the modem. Our Apple TV is also connected to this modem yet Netflix (that get us HD) never slows down, even when internet is crawling and websites fail to open.

Is this lense compatible with the Nikon D5000 body?

Yes and the Nikon 60mm G doubles as a nice portrait lens mounted on DX or crop cameras even though it is designed as a close-uplens.
