Hey guys never realized this section of the forum existed!

As far as my setup goes...

Canon T1i

Canon 18-55mm IS (giving to my gf as a starter lens)
Canon 55-250mm IS
Canon 50mm 1.8
Tamron 17-50mm 2.8 (replacing the 18-55)
Tamron 90mm 2.8 macro
Samyang 8mm 3.5 fisheye

I don't do much auto photography(I'd rather be driving the cars than photographing them) but I love nature and wildlife stuff

Thanks!

The lens bug is a serious disease to catch! Luckily my gf is starting out so it may be a little easier to justify purchases if she sees a reason she "might" use it too

I just bought myself a Panasonic DMC-FZ35............ DSLR would be too much for me. I'm looking forward to learning the manual capabilities with it though.

A good start I suppose. Don't be intimidated ny SLR's though. It's not that difficult to learn once you know the basic concepts like ISO, aperture, shutter speed and white balance. The learning curve is well worth it and something you won't regret.

Happy shooting and don't hesitate to ask for any insights.

Thanks. I used to mess around with it in my teens .............. long time ago I read up and refreshed my memory today on aperture, shutter speed, and ISO............ so I can use some of the cameras manual capabilities. It got good ratings for a "bridge" camera. One thing I intend to do is also take pics with the "intelligent auto" setting, then study the "choices" IA made............. re-take the shot manually and mess with the settings so I can learn firsthand how they all effect each other. Thanks for the offer

I love the 100-400, I definitely want to get one soon for track stuff. I'd recommend the 70-200 to anyone, mine hardly comes off my 40d
