hi from newbie

Postby gunn parker on Tue Jan 10, 2006 12:58 am

Hi All
I have just joined this forum after following a link to it from another, I have recently bought a finepix s9500 and I am hoping to pick up a lot of tips on taking much better photo's with it.
My name is Andrew and I am over on the south side of the river.

Bye for now
Andrew

Andrew,

Which river are you south of?

Let's hope that you can learn lots about using your camera here, and that we can help you to imporvie your photographic skills. That's what we're about.

Please, though, ensure that you place your location - a meaningful one - into your profile; that is an essential requirement for membership here.

Welcome Andrew!
I know you will enjoy your time here.
The people are not only friendly but the sharing of knowledge here is simply amazing and oustanding!
Good luck with your new camera. I suspect that in time, if you take a look around here and contribute and read more about what happens here you will be lusting after some seriously great gear in the future. I have one word for you....and that is LUST :)
Again - welcome, and please put your geographical location in your profile. It's a must.

G'day and welcome.

There are some very smart cookies that frequent these pages. I am just learning my camera and they've all done their bit to inspire and help.
