This is one of my favorites of one of my kids that was a premie. If you've never seen a small baby this will give you a different perspective. She was 2 lbs 11 ounces at birth and this was about a month later.

She'll be 9 in May and is perfectly fine besides being a PIA! She was big compared to some of the others in NICU.

Filter #3.5 F16 35 seconds.

Ill have a scan in the next couple days. I love the darkroom.

Looking to pull the trigger on a Camera this week.

I like the Canon T1i.

As a newbie to photography, is there anything about the T1i I should consider before purchasing?

What additions should I buy? Lenses, flashes and etc?

Thanks for the help!

Re: Photography Thread
 

That's what I have and took the above pic with it. I am quite frankly not in love with the kit glass and want to upgrade. So maybe look into better glass. JMHO.

Re: Photography Thread
 

Any particular glass to consider as an upgrade?

Re: Photography Thread
 

That is a tough call I am still working on it.

Re: Photography Thread
 

Depends on how much you want to spend...

Re: Photography Thread
 

To start I would get the "Nifty Fifty" It's cheap and the results are quite good considering the cost. It's not a USM lens but....

Re: Photography Thread
 

You dress the boy well.
:tu

Re: Photography Thread
 

I would consider the 50mm 1.8

OR

Canon EF 35mm f/2

The way I look at it if youll be taking pictures in cigar bars you need the faster lenses. The 50 is good bu sometimes you don have enough room in a crowd. Thats why I say the 35mm. All depends on what you will be using it for mostly.

A vacation option would be the 18-200. We've been through this before its not a PRO tack sharp uber lens, HOWEVER, for vacations and taking pictures in the moment it gives you great range.

The T1i is a great choice. With 15MP and a 22.3 x 14.9 mm sensor you are pretty golden.

If I do switch from my Nikons with will be to the T1i , 50D, or borrow indefinitely a 5D mark II

Re: Photography Thread
 

Can some of you experts give me your opinion on this photo tent kit I was looking at?
http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-PREMIUM-PHOT...item35a6c0b34f

Looking to take pics for the bakery website, and also double duty for my wifes website too (dog clothing).


What is something like this "worth", and is it any good?

What is the most I should offer on something like this, or can these be had relatively inexpensively?

Thanks in advance for your replies.

Re: Photography Thread
 

its not a bad price i wouldnt pay more than $75

You can make your own light tent
HERE

And put 2 shop lights on either side

for quite a bit cheaper.

Re: Photography Thread
 

So, the T1i is a good choice of camera for a newbie. The normal lense is just fair and I should look into a telephoto lense for more diversity.

I plan on taking the time to learn the "ins and outs" of this camera to take all kinds of pics.

Would this package I found be a good starter kit?...

Re: Photography Thread
 

Dunno if everyone is aware but the T2I is coming out in march.

Re: Photography Thread
 

available for preorder on Amazon.

FWIW It has the same size sensor as the T1i and 50D. More MP crammed on a smaller snesor. Id still rather have the 50D

Re: Photography Thread
 

:tpd:

and even over that, I'd rather have a 5D Mk II. ;)

Re: Photography Thread
 

This.

Or a 1Ds Mark IV.


-Mark.

Re: Photography Thread
 

I was sorely disappointed with the 5D mk II :(

Sticking with my 5D for the moment...

Re: Photography Thread
 

Quick question.

A friend is getting rid of a Canon Speedlite 430ex. Would this work with my D5000 or would it break something (like, voltage wise)?

Thanks!

Re: Photography Thread
 

I think it would work but I don't know that I would suggest it. The contacts on the shoe are different for each manufacturer.... so you would run the risk of those different contacts potentially causing problems for the flash and/or the camera. Not to mention you wouldn't be able to use ETTL.

Re: Photography Thread
 

used a 580EX Speedlight with a D70 years back (only thing I had that day, made do). As best as I can remember, It WILL trigger the flash (manual flash power), but it threw the camera into frequent error modes requiring a power cycle or possibly even a battery pull. So in other words, EXTREMELY DISCOURAGED!

Re: Photography Thread
 

The only way i could see it working safely is using a hotshoe to PC adapter then syncing the flash and camera vial PC cord.

This sit is usually very helpful.

Re: Photography Thread
 

Got the nifty fifty 50mm f1.8 in the mail yesterday (Abes of Maine or actually NJ ;) ) and it's clearly better than the kit lens. Worth the 100 bucks. Great for portraits as you can get tight depth of field.
