Braavos Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 I had some crazy-money, so I just picked one of these guys up, and I fucking love it. If you use a point-and-shoot camera with a tiny lens/aperture, do yourself a favor and drop by best buy and play around with a digital SLR. The image quality is just so incredibly good, and you have so many more options to add your own artistic flair to your shots. Back in 2003, I looked into DSLR for amusement's sake, and they were all 5,000$+. Now the entry level cameras are roughly on par with the high level point-and-shoots, pricewise. I just got a Nikon D40, two lenses, and a kit for 600. I've been absolutely blown away so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voski Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 I want to buy one and so does my dad. So when he buys it I can just take it My friend bought a d40 and every picture we took looked amazing. Where did you buy yours from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bolt in blue Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 I have the Canon Rebex XT. Love the camera, but wish I had a better lens. The kit lens is kinda slow (3.5 min aperture), but the lens I'd like is $1200. Not happening anytime soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SafeSearchOff Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 (edited) i have a panasonice dmc fz-50k. i fucking love it, it takes badass as hell pix... and with photoshop+picasa for a little touchup, they look nice as hell. only con is that the primary lens is permanently affixed... but it made the camera like $200 cheaper, so im not complaining.

wongxiao Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 (edited) nice photos!What I really want is a Leica R System... the one with the interchangeable 35mm/CCD backs... aaahh.... if only. Then again, I'd be totally thrilled to have anything from Leica's lineup, so...ah well.EDIT: did you do any post work on the water or use any filters in the second pic? if not... then well DAMN sir, that's pretty brilliant (both literally and figuratively)!
