i dunno about that. i have been seeing some steeze balls lately and i actually have a group of friends who lived in mammoth last year and moved out to breck this year.
the skier's left, medium size jumps are opening on monday; 3 jumps, 5 rails. pipe should be open in about two weeks with the rest of bashor bowl to follow that shortly.
i don't see any way the chutes are going to be open by christmas. rumor is, it is supposed to start dumping this week, but we'll be lucky if sundown and sunshine are even open by christmas.
yeah, that is the lens i have... i remember paying more for it, but i bought it like 5 years ago. i would highly recommend it. works so good for follows and is such a good value.
i used to have a kenko .43x semifisheye that i believe was 37mm threading, and it was super sick and really cheap. like $70 online. most of my older pictures in my profile were taken with it.
your sizing is all backwards. .3x your original picture is 30% of the new one... .5x is twice as much as your original... 1x is your original... 2x is telephoto... etc.
you don't buy lens like slr cameras, they are CONVERSION lens that are basically something you screw onto the front of the preexisting lens. there are threads on the on the lens that they screw right into super easy. search google for what fits your camera.
