Thread: Gonna need my 10 year old's help!!

Just picked up a new camera to shoot before and afters, etc. I think I'm gonna have to ask my 10 year old daughter to help me figure this thing out!?

Congrats. The 1-series body is a good learning curve but once you get it down you can never use anything else. I have been shooting with them for years and picked up a 5D MK II for the fun of it and it felt so different.

Thanks!! I'm totally WAY behind the curve for this type of technology. Thinking I might even get some benefit from attending a few courses.

I would recommend checking out this site. Learned a lot back when I first switched over.

Looks like I may have some good reading!!

Thanks!!

I was wondering when you were going to get a better camera...lol

working on ferraris and lambos, and using a point and shoot camera...tisk tisk...lol

Watch just how much better your shots will be with this camera, even in full auto mode, which is what I shoot my shots in because I dotn know the ins and outs of the canon XSi that I have...

woah, trade me that for my 40D...it will be easier for you to learn

Yeah, and in about six weeks I will probably be able to use it!!!


How did the LR turn out??

that the charity/concours show you were telling me about??? Why so bad?

The RR came out sweet, the LR came out super clean, the M3 came out gleaming, the old skool mercedes came out near perfected, and the GL450 turned out like new (even after a carting around a few kids for a while). I had to clay each and every one of them as the fallout was pretty bad, mostly on the RR. The LR was just a bit easier though.

Next up for me is going to be a BLACK Audi washed with a metallic brillo pad!!!
