I've noticed a few photography threads but i haven't found one that actually let me know what kind of camera you're using so i just want to start one and find out how many people really like taking pictures. (p.s. i just stepped into the DSLR so i'm still trying to learn the art of photograpy) My gear: Fuji E550/ Nikon D50/Kitlens 18-55/ Tamron 55-200/ Sigma 17-70. Just bought the Sigma a few days ago and still testing it out. and the Sigma:
i got the d50 a while back but i like it in silver over black, so got that =) 18-55 nikkor lens f3.5-5.6 70-300 nikkor lens f4-5.6 need to get a better tripod and some more filters
its a pretty good entry level dslr still learning all the features it has i was considered the higher models, but im sure it would have been a waste most importantly is to learn what this camera can do and find out wats not enuff, and then upgrade as needed since lens are reusable if u get another nikon, then most likely the basic upgrades u need is just some better lens =) one thing i find is, with the 70-300, it is quite heavy and tiring to hold around >< and yeah, it is hard to keep it still gotta learn to take the shot while u hold ur breath, and between heart beats so theres less movement and definitely invest into a better tripod cos a lot of shots i take (mainly for scenery cos it looks sooo pretty and relaxing) usually need long exposure the remote is good so u dont' have to touch the camera usually i just auto mote, or varying shutter speeds less on aperature, and def even less on manual but its nice to use manual, cos u get take the shot how u want, and u don't really need the "focus" selected to take shot
