New Camera
« on: December 02, 2016, 10:04:30 PM »
My old camera was giving me issues at the OCA convention, so the cost to repair the problems was just a much as buying a new camera on Black Friday, so welcome Canon EOS Rebel T5. I should remember to pay attention to the aperture for the depth of focus, some photos would have been much better with more in focus ;)

I've always enjoyed gazing at your photos. You gotta take a lot of shots at next year's ACA!

Hope you make out better than I did I had a Canon SX40 :D sold it and bought the SX50  :'(  3 years ago and hate it the SX40 was way better for close up (fish) pics good thing my new phone takes excellent close up fish pics.

That's a good camera zenins. I've always been a Canon fan myself. I still shoot with an old 20D here with a Sigma lens, one of these days when I can afford it I'd like to upgrade to a newer version like the rebel you just got 8)

Yes Mike, you are getting excellent results with your phone camera, great shot of the Calvus at the OCA show, you should post it here as well ;)
