welcome fellow dee70 comrade.

obviousdude · 1st February 2005

but jokes aside, this is the point where you gotta decide for yourself how much you wanna spend.

it's not absolutely crucial to buy all the kick ass lens. you can get great pictures even with kit lens and other cheaper alternatives.

it's just that standing side by side with other people with the kick ass stuff, you might just feel alittle....

but i emphasize, you can get good pictures even without spending a fortune.

Very difficult, everytime I bought a lens, I always told myself that is the very last lens I would buy, then a few months later, I bought another lens, and the cycle just repeats....

yeah i kinda figured this out. and talking to espn doesnt help much!

cos i m still only starting out and am not working, i will prob start with some cheap lenses. and maybe when i get richer than i will upgrade.

its amazing how much we are willing to spend on visual satisfaction!

wainism · 1st February 2005

actually, i think the admin should include a "broke/pok kai" smiley for all the DSLR users
hahaha
