View through a newbies eyes and the lens lust beastI hear a lot about lens lust, the sacred glass etc.
While I am always up there for wanting to be with the best of em' unfortunatelly at the moment my hobbies all seem to be very $$$ draining (model planes/cars/cameras....auuuh) and the looks from the wife are well 'I support your interstes but I would appreciate dinner on the table next week '....me well dinner for a week can be skipped . So I have two lenses regarded....well....they wouldn't be let into the old gentlemens club for a brandy and cigar I suspect (a sigma 18-50 3.5-6.3(came with camera) and nikon 28-200 G ) But....man I am having fun with them ! Ignorance is bliss I am installing photoshop again for the first time tonight (after a long break from work related stuff) and enjoying the great photos I am getting. I am enjoying the wonder of framing pictures, and the things you can do to capture the moments. That to me is far more than the 'perfect, high speed' quality pic at the moment and even adds to the challenge - to get the best from what I have. So for now I will opt out of the lens lust race and just observe, knowing there is a silent raging lens lust beast that if let out woud be...well u know - and enjoy being a corn bred, backwater SLR lad ! Of course when the wife is away...the wallet will play
hehe... be carefull attending minimeets
Put your location in your profile so we know where you are... and I agree 100% on framing... A good photos potential is never realised until it is printed and framed! New page

minimeets - beware of the 70-200 2.8 VR!
After briefly using Christiand's 70-200 VR at the Canberra mini meet a couple of weeks ago, I keeping thinking "skip buying the 80-200 2.8, save that bit extra and get the VR". sigh.
You should try going to sydney
mmmmmmmm 28-70/2.8 now that is a lens!! New page
