Just want some comments to help improve with this lens...just went outside to snap a couple pics with the 50mm 1.8 II. Let me know what you think. It's pretty sharp for being so cheap. The noise is my fault...sorry!
Eve, I've been meaning to tell you that even though the "too good to be true" deal fell through on the dSLR, have you considered still getting one? I know that B&H is VERY reputable - they may have the older models of the Rebel at a good price (haven't looked lately). But just think of how much you'll use it, and what you'll get out of it, and you'll see it's a very worthwhile investment. (Just trying to share the obsession....)
Thanks Melethia...I've decided that I am going to get a 400D..just will have to wait a bit to recover from the dental bills!!! *UGH*
In the meantime...It will be hit or miss whether I get any decent photos to share.
If anyone is traveling to the San Francisco Bay Area at the end of this month...the Folsom Street Fair is on Sunday 9/30. Some very "UNIQUE" photo opportunities to be had.
It's funny, and comforting to read the various exasperation, wry chuckling, out and out bitching, and general mayhem going on here at Team Suck in the various challenges. My Free Study is a shot I really like, but it's definitely boring for an expert editing challenge, and especially with a FS as well. Yet.....
If you really like your picture damn their eyes
If you're tired of the stricture damn their eyes
If you really like your picture and it hurts you where they kicked you
If you really like your picture damn their eyes
Hey jaysonmc, thanks for posting some of my pictures.
Just letting everyone know that there is a Michigan GTG coming up on the 22nd of this month in Lansing, Michigan. I know it's a long travel but just letting everyone know that they are welcome.
Well, I woke up to a beautiful day here in Caloundra, Queensland, Australia, after four days of rain and drizzle. I turned on my computer and still disappointed in my scores, except for one of them.
I turned them OFF until rollover. I still like them, so thats what really matters. Peace again reigns in our house once more......
I going out to get some supplies for a shoot today, while I can.
I hope you all enjoy my favorite images above, by our special team suck member Melethia
Ok it's very hard to choose one person, because I have many favorites from Team Suck. However, I am going to spotlight skewsme. Every time I see her animal photos, I immediately think of something you might see in a children's book.
Thanks for the heads up...it was an xt model..and now has "bump" in the thread..which I take to mean the thread originator has sold it maybe?
actually I think it means she hasn't sold it, and wants to give the notice more attention by bumping it up in the forum list. You can PM the person to inquire.

Shez, thank you kindly, my dear! I'm touched and honored!
Eve, if you can, get to a store that has both the 400 and the 30D. I started with the Rebel and still use it (it's the camera I have with me here) but I do love my 30D. The one thing you may or may not like about the 30D is the weight - it's definitely a heavier machine. But the only way to know is to handle both of them if you can. As someone said, it'll drop in price a lot now that the 40D is out. Which I could get irritated about (you don't wanna know how much I paid for the original Rebel, for instance) but I MORE than get my money's worth out of these toys. :-)
Oh, and get the camera, THEN worry about the dental bills. :-)
Free Study pictures are up in the Challenge Results Thread. Congrats to Melethia for getting a 7+ in a Free Study!!, and also for her 11th place overall.
I'll get back behind the camera again this month; I been overwhelmed for awhile.
