NEW CAMERA.................

I started this forum for any collecting hobby and it turned into my camera collecting and using forum. I use it mostly to keep a record of my photo adventures. Nobody but me seems to have photo adventures that visit here....but however. I have so many cameras now that I forget which is which and which ones work and which ones don't. If you have cameras and adventures you would be welcome to post here.

NEW CAMERA.................

Post by DuncaninFrance » Wed Aug 31, 2011 4:53 pm

..............well, new to me any :cool:

I bought my current Canon EOS 350D in September 2005 and have been very satisfied with it and the 3 lenses that I have used over that time.
Problems with both of my arms means that I needed to buy an Image Stabilized lens and while looking for one my wife said "Why don't you see if you can get a newer body too"? :shock:
I thought she meant mine but she confirmed that she was talking about the camera. :roll: :roll:

After a lot of searching and so on I finally decided to but a Canon 55-250 IS tele lens and I also found a place in the UK that had a good selection of used Canon bodies on offer an affordable prices.
They have agreed an exchange price on my 350D body and I have ordered a 500D which will give me an additional 9 million pixels and HD Video as well as many other improvements.

First outing will be Italy from 10th Sept so I am hoping for great things. Can't wait :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile:

Nothing like a new camera to play with......or a new gun to shoot.

But never a new phone 'cause by the time that you learn to use it, it will be out of date :loco:
