Another Newbie
Hi all
 First post - just found the forum courtesy of Aquila Eagle. Thanks Ian  I've had a long time interest in cameras / photography since my first SLR, a Pentax ME Super back in the early 1980s. (I still have it!) My first move into Digital was a Sony F505, followed by a Sony F707 (both of which I still have too). I'm ready for a return to SLR and now have a D200 and 18-200 VR DX lens on order. Can't wait, even though the bank will be well and truly broken  Looks like a good friendly forum, unlike some of the other more stuffy forums around, so I look forward to some fun times here. Cheers, Gary. |

I'd had my eyes set on a Canon 20D for a good while but I'd seen some fantastic pics from a D70 (Ian will know Jimbo). That, the spot metering, and the fact that the new Nikon seems to be the "next step" swung it in the end. Looks like I'll have the body a few weeks before the lens arrives though

You know what Gary, I have told oss about this forum, but not Jimbo - I got a cracking Xmas card from Jimbo - with his shot of Glencoe on it - magnificent!!

Ian
Get Jimbo on here quick! He has a lot to offer. I think I got the same Christmas card - he really does know what he's doing with a camera, and has a good eye too. |
