advice/help pls !!

Ok since most people in trini use canon i will advise people to go there. Why? Because accesories and used gear is easier to get. Not because canon is better...
So you could look at getting a used starter body second hand eg a canon rebel t1i or t2i, nikon has d3000, d5000
and spend the money on good lenses.
However good lenses are expensive and if u looking for a general purpose lens for everyday shooting, the 18-55mm "kit" lens that comes bundled with most starter cameras is good enough. A couple of the shots i posted was taken with it. If you prefer to get a new camera, and you can afford it there are always great deals online from amazon, J&R, B&H etc.
Since you're new start small and work your way up. Take a photo course, read online etc to really learn how to use your camera.
I got my 2cameras from hammy bolo so you can always check with him to see what he has.
Hope this was of some help

I want to dive into the world of SLR's ...i dont know diddly squat.
Need some guidance...will be used just for fun nothing pro like you gaiz
Did some research and lets just say my brain imploded....can anyone recommend a awesome starter up for me? i was look at : Nikon D3100 14.2MP Digital SLR Camera with 18-55mm Lens + Nikon 55-200mm Lens

Good buy...but if you want to save some cash, you can always look at the the factory refurbished cameras which are like new. They usually cost a lil less. Or you can get the nikon d3000 or nikon d5000 which are now replaced with by the nikon d3100 which means they will be cheaper.

^^ Im a newbie at the DSLR game also (lost my virginity 3months back) and I shoot with a canon d1000+ 18-55mm kit lens paired with a tamron 70-300mm. I got my body used from mishi so far Ive spent just over $4000 and I cant say Im disappointed with my buy.


So far it has been epic fun and with the canon Ive had TONS of support from the local forums when I needed it.

Glad that you're happy with the cam man... you've been workin that thing!

I couldn't stay out of the game so got a lil loan and got back one... will be back to taking shots soon enough.

hey guys was browsing one of my daily read websites and i thought of this thread when i saw this article
http://lifehacker.com/#!5770937/use-fruit-rollups-as-emergency-flash-gel


Use Fruit Rollups As Emergency Flash Gel
When a photographer out in the field lacks a necessary piece of equipment, they often need to innovate with materials at hand. Such was the case when John Crane, a professional outdoor photographer, came up with a unique solution.

John found himself ice climbing with some friends when he decided the use of a colored flash gel would work well with the ice. But he had a problem: with no such equipment in tow, he was out of luck. That's when he looked through his supplies and came across a pack of fruit rollups when the idea struck - the semi-translucent material would indeed work as an emergency flash filter!

Is it me alone or is imageshack down and their images not showing?

[MISHI]

imageshack change uo their settings...

if you want a direct link now they want you to sign in... but easiest way is to open the image in a new window after it loads and copy the direct link location.

[kurpal_v2]
