Some good pointers there Boxer!
Sounds like you got a pretty good deal for your camera.

I'm not gonna pay less than 750$ for the body ( It's a bit more expensive in Sweden =/ ) then like you said, spend the rest on a better lens.
If you're interested in the cameras I mentioned, there's this guy Kai Wong that does some very good and interesting camera reviews. http://www.youtube.com/user/DigitalR.../1/4mWnEd7qITQ

But yeah, we'll see which camera I will get. And I'll comment here once I have some photos up.

Btw do you get any cool filters and such with your camera?


Knex. Love your black and white photo with the child in the middle. Good work.

wow Knex, those photos are really sick, I only saw a few, but from what I've seen, they're really sick.

I'll defs look into those reviews man, they're always good when you're not sure of certain things. Let me know when you got everything and have put up pictures! What do you mean by filters?

[Seanne1986]

I mean does your camera have any effects. like fake tilt-shift etc?

oly-e330 camera of choice (cant beat the tilting preview screen)

Think I might get the Nikon D3100 actually. We'll see if I can get one next paycheck.

to be honest, I'm not even sure what a tilt-shift effect is hahaha I'm such a noob... but my camera pretty much just came as it was. I bought the 550D body with a tamron lens, no extras lol

obsolete, these pictures are sick man, really really like the "Spanky's Nightshot" picture.

Hehe. Tilt-shift is an effect that blurs out the top and the bottom of the picture, focusing only in the middle. So if you take picture of some people/buildings whatever while being far away from them, they'll look like miniatures/toys. I just made up my mind about getting the Nikon D3100 with the lens that comes with it. Looks like a good beginners kit since the D3100 is a really good choice for amateurs.

Might save up for some other lens later.
