oh harjun

edit: Also, you may have edited his post but you still left the answer in there!

yes? lol

But i think all people should post their answers to DK through PM, before Monday? (DK chooses), and then he marks them, and chooses 5 (or how many) he likes most, and posts them here, and then we all vote for a winner? , just put my thinking cap on, i think i'll remove it now.

do what your heart tells you what to do...

whoa, thats the first sensible thing i've said

Quote from james12s :

but not as much stuff as you harjun: a kart, a new pc and soon a dslr to name just a few

no...i dont have a kart, i dunno what your on.

whoa, you got loads of pcs there

Quote from Dooonster :

just got these to update my pc plus a new CPU as somhow i fried mine

hmm...KFC

ok, looks like i'll be getting the 400D, saw a kit of it on amazon, all adding up to £385...Also my uncle is a professional photographist, and he lives only down the road....so he can help me out

ok, i'll confess the only reason i want one is because of the twisty zoom thing, and the fact the pictures are AMAZINGLY clear...and you can zooom onto a picture after you've taken it a lot, and it still being clear, + my brother does dentistry and he needs to take photos of people's teeth, and zoom onto them clearly, where a macro lense should do

Quote from ajp71 :

You're 13 and want to spend £500 on a camera that's harder to use, far more likely to be damaged and (when you use it) give no better pictures than something a fifth of the price. Seriously having a hobby is great but going and spending that much before you know if you even like it is stupid. My cousin has been into photography as a serious hobby since he was younger than you and has just bought a 400D, it's a serious investment. My uncle is a professional photographer and has a 5D. Despite not being interested myself I've got a bit of an insight into the kind of cost involved in photography taken seriously, you'll find the costs are in tens of thousands, not hundreds of pounds for things that seem relatively simple.

i think you misread something, did i ever say i want to spend tens of thousands and become a professional photogropher, i just took a little interest, as my dad was buying a new camera to replace his cybershot 7.1mp...and my brother is putting in £200, i'm putting in £130, and my dad is putting in £50
...i'm not going to be buying some fancy pants lense, i just wanna take pictures of stuff and occasions and when i go on holiday, but in a nice clear sort of way. You seem to have caught the wrong end of the stick, once again....

but this is really nice this camera...i've watched pictures on youtube and stuff, and i understand that by changing apertures it opens up the aperture to let more light in, or less in, which makes the picture brighter or dimmer...I'm showing interest, because i've just come from South Africa for a wedding, and there were about 5+ photorgraphers there, and they let me try their SLRs, they were at Canons...the showed me how to take a good photo, although the first weren't that Great, they came out a bit dark, i opened the aperture up, and it came brighter, but they also taught me how to use the auto focus, by pointing the camera at a lighter part, auto adjusting the aperture to be bright, and then pointing it at the darker bit, so it comes light aswell But i wasn't really too keen on that bit.

Thanks

I think the 400D has grabbed me...£385 on amazon

Is that new?

Quote from XCNuse :

Harjun.. you buy that D40x you're the biggest idiot in the land, the D40x is absolutely USELESS, great, it's got .5 FPS faster shooting, are you really going to take something that shoots at 3 FPS out to sporst? I doubt it, not without fast lenses, meaning spending thousands of dollars on those 400mm 2.8 lenses.

Great, it's got 10 MP, that means absolutely ... nothing, MP is the biggest gimmick in the world, so what if you get those few extra thousand resolution images, what good are they?
A picture is a picture, it's the inspiration and the mind behind the camera that makes it art, not how big or perfect in quality the image is.

Photography is an art, not a science.

then what camera do you recommend...the EOS 400D?

but i've been taking pictures with my dads digital for ages and everyone, like, all 20 of my cousins and family really like them

Quote from Don :

lol dslr sucks you cant take vids with it and the photo appears on the lcd only AFTER you take it and lol only 3x zoom for that price that sucks

but if you buy a different lense can't you go upto 40x zoom?

Quote from tristancliffe :

Harjun - I'll put your name on my racing car (or your Dad's business, or whatever), if you'll pay for my race tyres in 2008! No jokes, absolutely serious.

why would i want my name on your car lol...

Anyway, this seems to more of a laughing thread than a serious one, but i like the D40X, but the grip seems really long

ahh...ok then, thanks Nuse, you seem to know what you are saying, but you see, my dad and brother will also be using the camera, and i know all about apertures and stuff, because my dad has a Sony Cyber-shot 7.2 MP...its a year and a bit old, but it does the job.

I've seen this
http://www.bigcitydigital.co.u ... kon-d40x-kit-with-954.htm

do you know where i could get it cheaper?

Thanks to those who helped.

Hello guys, happy new year .

I've recently taken up an interest in photography, and i was just looking for a decent entry-level Camera, from around £300-£400...I've seen that people use different lenses, and that they are for different distances, but i wont be zooming miles into something, so something sensible with over 10X zoom would be alright.

Also, does anyone know of any online guides to photography? If so, please can you show me?

Thanks, and happy 2008
Harjun
