comment What do I need to know to get started with food photography?
@John: In general, Primes produce much better results in nearly every aspect compared to Zoom's. For food photography, that general statement holds. I do all my food photography with 50mm primes. I experimented with a 50mm macro, and while close focus is nice, the extra light from my 50 1.4 more than compensated for it.

Self cleaning is rather useless, isn't it?

comment What resources can you suggest to help me write contracts?
I don't think this needs to be closed (else i would have voted ;p), but some of the questions you asked, have been covered in other questions.

You're actually asking a few questions here, but I do recall a number of questions that have touched on this issue: photo.stackexchange.com/search?q=contract

comment Are equipment reviews from websites like kenrockwell.com and bythom.com reliable?
@labnut: I appreciate the spirit of your concern, but when it comes to this specific website, there is enough established criticism, that I feel that my opinion is warranted, and less "gossip." Ken Rockwell has opinions that the majority of photographers find absurd. He is a sensationalist just like Matt Drudge, except he chooses to write about photography, instead of political muck raking.
