Over the past few months I have been toying with the idea of getting a DSLR camera. My interests were initially peaked when I got my Canon HG21 back in November/December of 2009. The camcorder had limited DSLR capabilities that proved only to wet my appetite for the world of digital photography.
I spent a good amount of time looking through various web sites and and forums trying to find the right camera for my needs. Everyone was telling me to start small, get something like a Rebel T2i or even less. At first I agreed but then I thought to myself, I want to set big goals and I would rather aim high and fail that aim low and succeed. I decided to pick up the Canon 7D. Regarded as one of the best pro-sumer cameras available, it set me back quite a bit. But I am happy with what I got.
This web site will be dedicated to my journey. I want to share with people how I learn about photography and hopefully you will also learn something or maybe just enjoy the show.
Just to let everyone know, here is how I am currently geared:
Canon 7D
EF 28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM
8GB CF Card
72mm UV Filter
I am planning on purchasing the following items in the near future:
Tripod
EF 50mm f/1.8 II
72mm Polarizer Filter
Backpack or bag for my gear
Lens hood
Lens cases
Remote
