Are lenses cheaper outside the US?

kasyapa_lk — Fri, 25 Sep 2009 04:20:45 GMT

Hi, I recently decided that my point and shoot just isn't cutting it and broke down and bought an Canon XSi. I love the pictures this camera takes but I'm not to thrilled about how much lenses cost.

So my question is, do lenses tend to be cheaper elsewhere in the world? If so, where and by how much.

AutoCAD

MarcyOne — Fri, 24 Jul 2009 05:52:54 GMT

Do AutoCAD coordinates relate to units of measurment?

There is no units in auotcad, you draw to true demsion, for display purposes you can use the
units command, so if you want to draw let say in architecture you can type 6' and it converts
it to inches for you.

The best way to draw is to draw it in full scale, go to paper space, set up the size tittle block
you want and scale your drawing down inside of viewports.

When you first set up a drawing you can set the limits for that drawing and the units so
you can have a direct correlation between your desired units and the coordinate system.

Me and my twin brother are in our mid-teens. We are quite interested in dating, but do not know how to go about it. Can we get some help from internet sites?
