Yourself?

300D, 40D, 10-20, 18-55 stockie, 50mm 1.8, 75-300, 430ex flash, sb26 flash, wireless triggers, crumpler bag..thats what i usually take around.

24-70 2.8 and 70-200 2.8 IS in the future..when I have a spare 3K hahah..

The 40D is an awesome step up from the 3/4xx canon range...The 50D is literally just around the corner though with a highres lcd and some other interesting features..doh!

[siddr20]

WOW big setup up there aaron

Yea 50d was about 600 bucks to expensive at this stage.

You can start purchasing it now for 1.6k (body only). Which is a great price!!

Plus dont really need 50d right now. Perhaps my next upgrade will be the new 5d

My 40d just arrived so sexy!!

Nice, enjoy it..the rotating selector thing is the best thing about it

so is the high-fps mode..sounds like a machine gun.

[siddr20]

I love that rotating wheel thing!!

OMG one thing i hate is the noise it makes when taking a photo.. Sounds like an sr engine compared to a RB HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAH

you know what i mean?

Coming from a 350d, it sounded mean!! lol

[ZENNON]

haha - the quieter the better i say

D80 is quite noisy..

[siddr20]

i dont like the sound. Im sure i will get use to it!!

[fullyhyperlite]

My friend. I've never actually tried portraiture photography before....so here's my ammatuer photos lol.

All criticism is verrry welcome. I know in the middle photo her face looks very washed out - but the sun was directly behind. All taken with a Canon 400D

[Xmetal]

3rd photo - shooting into the sun = bad.

The rest are good.

[evade]

yeah bit of flare there...otherwise the other two arent too bad at all.

[siddr20]

I like the first shot.

Brings out her peaceful character with a bit of raunchiness heheh. Great work!!

[Gus-]
