This is the camera that i revert back after since i used the D70s and the E500 no offense to other fan boys but i really liked this camera

you can say that im a faithful 350D user, but im not a faithful canon user

Added on December 2, 2007, 3:17 ambtw, guys i found this lens calculator. Just go and see how's the focal factor on your camera, just remember what crop factor your camera is then apply the lens on it.

I found out that the 17-40L's 100+ angle of view only works on the full frame =/ makes me think twice whether i shud get it or not, because im a wide angle freak

Hmmm, hard decision. I plan to jump into the world of full frame le... so the 17-40 is a must furthermore, lens are long term investment... haiz... decisions decisions!

i know XD but im deeply in love with the 17-40 XD


thanks man

^put it at the 1st page add me into teh list

R a D ! c 4 L - 350D + EF-S 18-55

^yes you need to

time to embrace the quality of FF

No need to put lens list la, just put the lens that you use the most can liao lor

guys, dont bother buy new body of the 350D. I got mine as a 2nd hand. With 7 months warranty left and 4k plus shutter only, added with extra original battery and BG-E3 battery grip, just for 2k. Go scout around.

just my two cents.

haha the family's getting bigger

welcome!

alright, here's my contribution







all taken with the kit lens

and i see some nice photos from others in this thread too, keep em coming

tat building was shot in TTDI

Freak' nice shot leh, like the flower 1

580EX II is around 1600, i don think you can find anything lower than that. Went to alot of shops and that's the lowest they can give.

90% of the editing was done in Lightroom, in photoshop i just added the grain only.

nope raw > edit raw > convert to jpeg(which looks like the edited raw)

Then just use photoshop to do the editing and setting basic and advanced? i don get you man XD

for jpeg it is like that, if im not wrong its the AWB's characteristic.

I use evaluative and center weight most of the time. Center weight for landscape shots as i wan to get a reading from the ground and then apply my filter. For evaluative i use it when the light is subtle.

^where to get them instead of shashinki?

the 50mm f1.8, like most of the comments, its best for a portrait lens. Couple with a Raynox DCR-250, Macro-Scan 2.5x Super Macro Conversion Lens, it can be a superb lens for macro photography, and the thing cost only 250

nice combination huh?

Its also good for landscapes and others, the fixed focal factor helps you train your compositional skills. Get creative!

can but you wont get the magnification of the raynox lor just a more close up view of the subject, unless you manage to get a +10 closeup filter. I think that'll help alot.

IMO, The 50mm is good for everything, its really up to you on how you use it the f1.8 is really a bonus you can play around with them bokeh and stuffs for impact and creativity.

And btw, i just went to sg wang to get myself the RS-60E3 Remote Control for my rebel, now long exposures are not a problem d

the remote cost me RM90. Bought it at Bo Eing.

wasted my 90 bucks

around 400-500 i think, if u can find 2nd hand, it'll be better, i got mine 2nd hand superb condition, bought it with my 5 months old 2nd hand 350D for 2k only

still i think its usable for landscapes right? maybe ill try and bring the 50mm out 1 day and do landscaping.

I got mine for 300 brand new too he used it for 1 week then sell it off along with his 350D

^its Raynox DCR-250 Macro-Scan 2.5x Super Macro Conversion Lens. Its the whole thing, 250 if im not mistaken. But i do not know a place that sells them =/ you have to buy the 50mm f1.8 seperately of course.

The rebel can perform in long exposures too man, here's a simple experiment, the night sky was glowing with the light of the moon so its a good opportunity for such experiment. Did a tweak in the white balance to get the sky blue enough too, with minimal noise reduction in Lightroom. Results are of below
