Just got me a Pentax X90. Snapped this out the back.

And this one. I have cropped this snap down a bit.

And another taken less than five minutes ago using my tripod and on AV mode Manual. I have a lot to learn about photography.

Great shots mate looks like your getting the hang of it.

I don't think I ever posted this one. I'm sure everyone has at least one of these, mirror self portrait.

Nikon D40 w/ Nikkor 18-55mm f/3.5 - 5.6 AF-S DX (stock kit lens)

So, why do I have such a giddy look on my face you may ask? Well.. my wife was in the shower and I was trying to be sneaky.

And, more PC hardware for the thread.

Add me to the list, just picked up a Canon Rebel EOS t2i yesterday... Experience with them is very limited (yesterday and today) so far. This picture is my favorite I've shot so far, it's a side shot of my daughter pondering away.

edit: Any lens suggestions you guys could suggest for a begginer? Are Tamron lenses comparable to Canon at all? Looking on amazon and some of the similar lenses are priced a lot cheaper, just wondering if they would be a decent enough quality for a beginner.

Not sure if I had submitted any of these or not -oh well... here they are anyway! The picture of Fujisan was taken with my phone, while the others were taken with my Panasonic DMC-FZ18.

Possible to get that first one in a higher res? would make for a nice wallpaper, say, 1920x1080?

Here are a few -the last one is the view from my hotel room!

Are there any lens suggestions out there as a "good" cheap starter lens? The one that came with the camera is an 18-55mm with IS, I was looking at the 75-300mm cannon telephoto lens with USM or the 55-250mm with IS... Anyone have any experience with either of those lenses, and overall thoughts on them?

sexy i want one

Hey guys does anyone know if the Canon T1i or T2i will stream live? I'm debating a YT tech channel and thinking of adding a dimension by a live stream.

Any thoughts? Other suggestions? I've looked at both of the Canon's specifically for nice lens alternatives(macro for upclose review work and tele for general zoom).

 

[erixx]

Haven't seen this thread before... Very nice! I am a low level amateur... Have Olympus SP800UZ
Comes with [ib] software, that looks nice but... Do you recommend it or is it just free rubbish?

I'm not 100% sure but I would venture and say no.

Hey, noticed your posts got ignored so I thought I'd help!

Heres a rather good review of the T2i:

Nice video review here too:

There is a kit lens, 18-135mm lens that took some pretty decent shots in that review. I think I'm gonna start with that kit lens and go to a nice 60-100mm macro lens when I'm ready.

Have you used the software at all? The video review shows some pretty cool interface w/it.

Got a better shot of the hummingbird:

 

[MT Alex]

Very nice hummer shot.

 

[DanishDevil]

Standby for pictures of my new car! Picking it up tomorrow Planning to do a photo shoot of it sometime next week in Malibu!

 

[HammerON]

Very nice hummer shot.

Have been taking pictures of them all this week at my parent's house in Sun Lakes, AZ. Tried many different settings and took a lot of pictures to end up with just a couple I like. We don't have them in Alaska, but I will try to get some nice pics of eagles when I get back home

Might it be a BMW??? Can't wait

 

[DanishDevil]

Not going to be another Bimmer, but it's still going to be German...hmm...didn't even think about my avatar when deciding to go for it...whatever. Any guesses on what it is?

 

[HammerON]

Audi?

 

[DanishDevil]

Closer. Bed time. Getting to the dealership at 9AM tomorrow.
