RawWorkflow.com - WhiBal™ White Balance Reference Card

The Canon 1D MKII is a breakthrough camera. You know that. That is why you bought it. Great body, ultra-fast, high resolution, pretty close to perfect in my book.

Like any camera or creative tool there are little things that can be added to enhance the "tool" aspect of such a product. After all, the 1D MKII like any camera is a creative tool that you want to get the most out of. I have been shooting with the 1D MKII since it became available, and I have found some Cool Stuff that makes it work better for me. I thought that I would put a kit together so that you can get some great pricing on some accessories that maybe you have not thought of. And we have made the kit modular so that you can add some additional items when you buy the kit at very attractive pricing. Kind of a win/win. We only have to handle one order so we can pass along a lot of savings to you. So let me tell you about what I have picked out that make my life with the MKII even better.

To put it simply, I would not go on a job without all of this Cool Stuff.

Optech Pro Loop Strap™ - You need this for the MKII. Here is the blurb from Optech. It is all true. "The patented weight reduction system makes the PRO STRAP™ absolutely essential for prolonged use of a heavy camera or portable power pack. Equipment instantly feels 50% lighter and 100% more comfortable when using a PRO STRAP™ . The weight is evenly dispersed while the strap functions as a shock absorber to eliminate neck and shoulder fatigue. The Non Slip Grip™ adds the finishing touch which enables camera gear to be safely carried slung over the shoulder. You’ll definitely feel the difference! " Black only.
Delkin eFilm™ Pro 512MB SD Card - The 1DMKII accepts both CF and SD memory cards. I keep a 512 Delkin Pro in my MKII at all times. It is never my primary card except for emergencies. If I run out of CF space, I can switch to the SD. Or if I do not have time to swap out CF cards, I switch the camera to the SD. So I hardly ever use it, but I would not shoot a job without it. A must have.
Delkin 32MB SD Card - The 1DMKII can store all of its settings onto an SD card. Why not use a CF card? Two reasons. 1...you may delete the settings on a CF card that is also used for primary storage. 2...the SD card is so small that you can keep it with you at all times in your wallet, so if you are ever handed a 1DMKII, you can set ALL of the options and CF functions instantly. Or if you want to loan your camera to someone (right!), you can restore it when you get it back. Or if you have a job where you had to mess with your settings, you can restore your default setttings. A must have for a great Canon feature.
Delkin USB 2.0 SD Reader - To read the SD cards. A very fast reader as all the Delkin readers are.
WhiBal™ Pocklet - No 1DMkII is complete without it. In fact no digital camera is complete without a WhiBal™!
FlashPack™ CF holders - It is the best one out there. Holds 4 CF cards firmly on your belt or in your bag. You get 2 in the kit. One worn on the left for blank cards, and one worn on the right for shot cards. Or pick your own method.
Etcetera Generic 1DMKII Camera profile for C1 - Must have alternate profile for C1 RAW conversion. Whether you like it better than the P1 profile, or just use it as an alternate, this is a must have. Like having a different film to shoot, but you get to decide after you eveluate the capture!
Free DVD Journal from Luminous-Landscape - Just a gift. You get the current issue. If you already subscribe, give it to a friend.
20% off of Epson and Lexjet Paper - Another gift. Just mention the special code that comes with your order and get 20% off of your next paper order from our friends at LexJet.
More deals are being negotiated for Cool Stuff Kit buyers. No promises, but I am working in them and all will be retro-active to all buyers. Check back here.
Add-ons - Check out other Cool Stuff essentials below that I just did not want to include in the kit because you may already have the items. They must be purchased at the same time as the Cool Stuff Kit, in the same shipping cart. Look at those prices! All pricing is subject to change, so act fast.
