I bought the "Rebel" (300) two years ago, and it's just fantastic.
Just snapping pictures.....

I have a 528 memory-card and I download the pictures asap to my laptop; cleaning the card for new pictures...
The connection with the camera is slow, so I use a cardreader. Yours might be fast.

It's great fun. Trying out settings and seeing the effect right away. It's just a great experience.

Enjoy.
 
I'll love to get a new one...Cannon something (not sure which model) for night time only. And another Kodak smaller than what I have. And also get a good one for my son so he can take pictures on his own. He started copy me. :mrgreen:
 
NIIIIIIIIIIIICEEEEEEE!!! I am drooooooling now hee! :giggle:

Wow omfg awesome. I do have a digital camera (5.1 MP) which is pretty good but I would love to have a professional-type digital camera, though.
 
Oh no, your package does not come with the lens. Hee hee just kidding. What a very expensive camera! I hope that you will love it. You better secure it all the times. Are you going to buy more cards? I saw an old man who owns a pro-digital camera has a plastic book that contains about 12 cards in it. That's another expensive one. Oh boy!

OMG! It's a very nice and professional-type digital camera. I have a brand new Sony cybershot DSC-W100 my dad gave me for my birthday. My digital camera is pretty good and has lots of features...
 
I know Canon SLR can have slow exposure to catch aurora. I wish I have that! I did study how to photograph the space couple months ago.

webexplorer, (giggle) Haha... I have few lens for 35mm SLR.. So I use those attach within 30D SLR. Do you know 35MM SLR is no longer so expensive.. you can buy 35mm slr for afforable price like 300 to 200 bucks now.. I will make sure to secure my very expensive high zoom end camera slr.. NO ONE TAKEN.....

My answer is yes I love it. It make me take more picture on and on.. because I wanted to practicing three different modes like M= Manual, Av= Apreture-Priority, Tv= Shutter-Proiority on camera.. I had improved "M" and "Av", However "M" modes I use mostly than two modes. but Tv is somewhat hard..

I am still practicing on and on till my skills and expreinces growing in me to knowledge of camera settings..

starrygaze, you are right what your qoute says.. must have to use tripod to pervent the blurr picture.. I have owned Manfrotto HD PRO Monopod, it is okay I admit.. Because it sometime cause blurr picture when I shake it.. grrrr.. I will get tripod someday... tripod is high price..

Great pictures.

ISO stands for International Organization for Standardization.


i.e. ISO 100 is the best suit for outdoor (brightness) = "less sensitive exposure"

ISO 400 or higher is for dark background both indoor and outdoor = "very sensitive exposure"

ISO 200 is standard exposure (and f/5.6) which is very common for people to take pictures.

If you want to take a picture for clear distance background view, you can set f/8 (small aperture). We call this f stops which is same for f/#.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F-number#Fractional_stops

Less quality if you use higher ISO such as 800 or 3200 when you take a picture at dark or night. The best way is to use a flash that will give you better picture with ISO set at 400 (?). I don't remember how much difference quality between digital and non-digital for the higher ISO like 800.

Your camera has best color adjustment as a true color than a regular digital camera. It is hard for us to buy a regular digital camera (vary of prices) because of the color problems, and I consider that they are still not perfect.

One more thing, on a brightness day, it is hard to find the right exposure because of the contrast (brightness) like black and white background (i.e. your picture of playing basketball). When it is a cloudy day, it is very good exposure and nice quality picture. If it is a nice and clear day, you should figure out where to find a location to take picture especially avoid the sun in front of you or even both sides, and sometimes in background. Our eyes and your camera's aperture are not the same.

I looked up Manfrotto HD PRO Monopod in Google.com and never see this before. This one can stay without move that prevent blurry you said.
