Yo everybody! New here in CS!

[JweiH]

Hi everybody! I'm a newbie who got the interest in photography after a trip to Hokkaido, Japan. Well, borrowed a Sony DSLR from my friend, first day didn't know how to really use but lucky there was this pro guy in my tour group to guide me along. Came back to Singapore, got a 550D.

Hi JweiH,

The Sony feels too light for me. and 550D seems like a really good buy for me, so after researching a bit, that's it. 550D with Tamron 18-50mm 2.8 lens. haha. Thanks for liking the first shot. The autumn is really awesome there.

Thanks AnsQ!

Nice pics (though shouldn't be posted in Newbies Corner...)


You didn't get a Sony??? Why?
From what I've been reading in the Newbies Corner, their DSLRs are the best thing to happen to this world since ...... well since sliced bread!!
