I got hold of a nice little camera I'm playing around with, Canon Rebel XT. It's actually kind of fun to do, and it takes pretty damn nice pictures. Any comments on how to improve/work with it better would be appreciated.

And I know she's not much to you guys, but she's my baby...so here she is. biggrin.gif










I need to find out how to work with the flash better. Also, I just hit 70k. biggrin.gif

IDK how many owners she's had, but it just a pretty low-mileage car for it's age. Other than that, I wipe it and treat it with interior shine a couple times a month.

I clean mine almost every weekend and its only had 3 owners, practically only 2, me being one of them! And it still doesn't look as nice as yours does! I'm jealous. .

Getting the body's just the beginning. If you want to have any impressive images, you'll have to start investing in lenses. I hope you didn't get the body+lens combo. I honestly think that the default 18~55 lens is too limited.... It doesn't zoom far enough, aperture is not high enough..

I think you need to take it off the driveway for truly great pictures laugh.gif

Borrowed camera for a Journalism assignment. laugh.gif But yeah, it was the 18-55...and I also had a 55-1xx. How much does this camera usually go for?

I think you need to take it off the driveway, throw some rims on it, lower it, put on projectors and JDM tails, replace hatch with CF version, and throw on some odd great-looking body kit for truly great pictures laugh.gif


Totally agreed.

I only had the opportunity for a couple nights, so I wasn't in a prime position to go location-hunting. Also, I just wanted to take good pics with a good camera...might as well share the wealth [or lack thereof (JK baby, I love you!)].

For the camera? It was interesting, but I'm not looking to buy. I'd rather drop cash on that beast the OP posted. laugh.gif
