I have purchased a new camera this morning - a
Canon EOS 550D SLR - and have spent an hour or so taking photos of anything to test it out. Until now I have used a
Canon IXUS Digital, so this new camera is quite a step up for me. Most of the photos have been taken through dirty car and home windows as it has pretty cold and wet so I have been mostly indoors.
I did get out briefly and took this photo in Queen Street Woollahra - just up from where I live - of the Delicatessen as viewed through the windscreen of my car. Some of the shopkeepers must have been wondering about the unshaven man in the car taking snaps of shoppers. I thought I'd better make a getaway before the Police were summoned.
I have camera envy.
ReplyDeletewalt - I'm very much a camera novice. I hope I haven't over-reached myself.
ReplyDeleteNew cameras are always fun! You'll have a great time experimenting with it.
ReplyDeleteI have camera envy too. I have a 450D, having given my 400D to my daughter. You are not all that far from me you know.
ReplyDeleteWe should take shots of 'Victor's Meats' in Queen Street and see what we can manage to come up with.
Julie - very fitting, I didn't think of that.
ReplyDeleteI've been thinking about a new camera for some of those more interesting shots - like low light or when autofocus doesn't focus on what you want (like spiderwebs at the botanical gardens). Your model might be a little beyond what I want to spend right now though.
