Woo, new camera!
In their infinate awesomeness, my parents got me a camera for my birthday today, a Canon 30D. I'm loving it, and have spent most of the day wandering about playing with it, resulting in the following shots:

Well, slap my ass and call me Dixie... a Canon 30D... *drool* Where do you live, I wish to hold you at knife point. What sort of lenses do you have for it?
Excellent pictures. I love the dog.

Heh sorry if that came out a bit harsh. I meant to say that if anyone without skill and dedication buys a 30D then it's really a questionable use of money, so it's no surprised that you have skill and dedication.Pezzoni wrote:Indeed, it's rather inb my best interests to get the most out of this camera possible!

All the above were shot on a 28-135 f3.5-5.6 IS USM (borrowed from my Dad). There is also a 17-55 f4.5-5.6 kit lens, also owned by my Dad (we got the 30D body only, as we didn't really want another kit lens). I'm going to order a 100mm f2.8 Macro in a few days as well.
ThanksExcellent pictures. I love the dog.
No worries, I understood your sentimentHeh sorry if that came out a bit harsh. I meant to say that if anyone without skill and dedication buys a 30D then it's really a questionable use of money, so it's no surprised that you have skill and dedication.

Nice, you shouldn't merely put kit lens on the camera, since I kind of kind that like putting a burlap sack on a beautiful girl for clothing. Sure, it covers her up, but it's just not right, you know?Pezzoni wrote:
