I just started taking photos with a DSLR about a year ago to take photos of my two beautiful daughters. Hopefully that will become a gift to them when they grew up.

When I first consult my photographer friend(s) regarding the gear that I need, one of them told me something that is really helpful. He stated:

1. "The most entry model camera body like the D3000 or the 450D are way better than the state of the art digtal camera like 8 year back and I am pretty sure there is hell lots of beatitful pictures been taken during that time too"

2. "If the photo is not interesting in the first place who will actually care abt how sharp the hair on the subject in your photos is right? "

3. "Yes, you will need ultra fast focusing motor, stalizer, prefect lens... because you are a bloody handicap. If you want the photos desperate enough, you will find a way to get it. Be creative, compensate and improvise. Technology will kill them if you rely on it too much and too early"

Maybe people that carrys a camera recently are juz getting too concern with review about Image quality, sharpness, chromatic aberration, vignetting, lens flare, noise control etc... and end up taking less photos.

Just take out your camera and like what you are doing :D I

Below is some of the photos I taken during Nov 2009, my first family outing with a DSLR camera (Canon 300D Canon 17-85 IS USM). I don't know anything about editing that time so this are all taken with jpeg and straight from camera.
