Is it just me or are more and more kids using high end gear? Just saturday at marina bay sands i saw this kid like not more than 15 using something with a BG and red ring lens. (on the side-note i realised almost a quarter of the people there using rebel with kit lens. Also saw this guy blasting his pop-up at cbd night landscape at the pavilion, i see almost want to laugh;p)

:)

and tats the reason why i didnt get bg nor kit lenses. purposely picked the tamron 17-50 instead of 18-55

and i dun use on camera flash. i have both a strobist kit and a continuous lighting set:D

and i'm not rich. i'm poor. work and earn money during part time jobs haha
 

not only kids..almost everyone is using dslr now.

i went to sentosa for the "song of the sea" last week, and there was a lady sitting in front of me. from the start till end..she keep on "snap snap snap" with the built in flash. ..

I'm just a bit a bit surprised that parents will buy L lens for them these days man, although i personally don't disapprove(honestly i am a bit jealous;p)

have you been to forum shopping centre at tanglin?

those little baby garments that are branded cost $500 a piece. 3 pieces gets you an L lens.

are you going to be jealous of the baby wearing it?

you should never begrudge people for being rich, although you can judge them if they do not make use of what they have. in my opinion.
 


Under 10 years old with 5d mk2 and brick? The kid must be taking steroids to be able to shoot that photo sia:bsmilie:

Wah, later got some kid see your post then really go obsess with xmm:bsmilie:

Nah, i got nothing against rich people, its just when i see then i'll be like 'WOW, that kid has that'

And actually 2 baby garments can get you 'L', 17-40 sub 1k on b&s;p
 

omg , they shot better than me !! :thumbsup:

I quit !! :cry:
Don't worry, i'm sure a lot of people will feel the same way when they see what we just saw:D
 

;D yes. mroe importantly, just differentiate urself from them.

for me its easy bah. i can take photos, i know how to operate my camera and each shot of mine is my own.
can liao

I don't think there is anything worth to talk about,
maybe they have a rich father, but I don't, so be it.

and also, I will not look down any of them,
today they maybe just a newbie,
maybe they can shoot better than me in a few years later,
so who will have the last laugh will never know...

Agreed :thumbsup:

Even if they never ever end up taking good photos, so be it. They worked hard to earn the money. Who are we to tell them how to spend it.
