Some of my favorite photos are from N.G. <BR/><BR/>Get some guidance first before investing in a new camera- that way you'll know better what to look for. E.g., it's great to have a lens with depth-of-field markings on it, but they don't seem to put them on as much anymore. Faster lenses let you shoot in lower light (i.e., the lower the f-stop #, the faster the lens; faster also means more $$$ though). <BR/><BR/>As for the Leica, that's too bad, but the upside of the digital craze is that there are some much more reasonably priced film SLRs out there.Clairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06168243108016358137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11901578.post-1134659387694888992005-12-15T10:09:00.000-05:002005-12-15T10:09:00.000-05:00There is a photography club here at work, and some...There is a photography club here at work, and some of the Real Photographers will tutor people on building skills. Mind you, I only have a point and shoot 35mm and my digital Nikon, but it makes me want to go out and buy a real-deal camera and ask for guidance. I mean, having access to National Geographic photographers who are willing to give advice? If I don't take advantage of it, I'm a fool.<BR/><BR/>My father had a great Leica with tons of equipment, but one of my sisters mistakenly sold it at a garage sale after he died. For $25. Crap. (Unfortunately, I was overseas and couldn't stop the madness.)Merujohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14123831956012950960noreply@blogger.com
