Cupid Stunt 18 Posted November 10, 2006 Report Share Posted November 10, 2006 You have to be pretty gormless though not to be able to take a better quality pic with a Digi SLR than one that isn't. You just learn little tips etc. the more you play about with the camera & theres plenty of online tutorials & magazines around to help folk. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Jane Russell Posted November 11, 2006 Report Share Posted November 11, 2006 It just goes to show if you dont know much about photography you are wasting load's of dosh on the expensive stuff when a cheaper one can do all you will ever need of a camara.. ..Millet But if you are in the process of learning, you do outgrow the cheaper ones quite quickly.

Cupid Stunt 18 Posted November 11, 2006 Report Share Posted November 11, 2006 Well to a fair few folk the extra money wouldn't be a waste because its not that hard to learn little tips to improve unless you are a Special Needs type person. If you look through any catalogue from suppliers you will see thats why there are what is termed as entry level digi SLR's which are fairly cheap right through ones costing thousands just for the camera body. I don't doubt you there but there also an ever increasing number of folk buying better camera's. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest The Big Fish Posted November 11, 2006 Report Share Posted November 11, 2006 it take's photographers year's to master the hang of those more expensive cameras to there full potential..And for what the average folk use a camera for on these hunting site's a 50quid job will do the trick. Millet Hi Millet, i have to disagree with you on that statment. I used to use a cheaper camera and there is no way on this earth that i could have got the shots with that camera that i am now getting with my slr. If there is such a 50 quid camera out there that can capture "that special moment", can you give me a link to a website that is selling it please and i will put my canon on ebay.

Guest Jane Russell Posted November 11, 2006 Report Share Posted November 11, 2006 The downside to the bulky SLRs is that they don't slip into your pocket easily -- like I said, I miss my Ixus! Jane Quote Link to post Share on other sites

J Darcy 5,871 Posted November 18, 2006 Report Share Posted November 18, 2006 canon 300D......though it will probably give up the ghost soon....they never last me long...sodding grit and sand seem to ruin them... i learnt on a film camera and it was very hard to get good shots....VERY hard indeed. If i had have owned a digi SLR years ago i would have had many hundreds of amazing action pics. Digi's make photography easy....as simple as that...they are brilliant....and the action shots are out of this world too.....as long as the light is right....
