What kind of camera(s) do you have?

[mike bell]

hey yall,

I have a 35mm Minolta 300si, and now a digital Minolta 5D and a couple of lenses for it. Just got the 5D a couple of weeks ago, so Im ready for warmer weather to come so I can get outside.

Anyone have any suggestions for an inexpensive Digital SLR?

I was thinking about buying a Canon Digital EOS body since I believe I can used the lenses I have for my 35mm EOS, right?

If you want to start out cheap, check out craigslist or ebay for a used 300D(digital rebel). They should be under $500. And yes, your Canon mount lenses will work with the Rebel. They should be EF mount.

The shutterbug bit me hard during my first tour in Iraq, when all I had was a Canon Powershot S410 (4MP, point and shoot). A few friends that happen to be professional photographers gave me a little guidance and direction, and it became something far more than a hobby for me. A little bit of my combat pay from OIF3 bought me a Canon Digital Rebel XT (350D, 8MP DSLR) along with the Canon EF 50mm f/1.8II lens, and I was hooked for good. My folks got me a set of Sigma zooms (18-50mm f/3.5-5.6 and 55-200mm f/4-5.6) later, and I bought the Canon EF 28mm f/1.8 USM, all of which I put to good use between OIF3 and OIF5. Since then, I've decided photography needs to be part of how I pay the bills, and will be minoring in photography when I get out of the Army after this tour. A good chunk of combat pay went towards a lot of new equipment, namely the Canon 5D, Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L, Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS, a new tripod, monopod, four PWII wireless triggers, and 3 Vivitar 285HV strobes.

Welcome Mack~ It sounds like the shutterbug for sure bit you bro! Looking forward to see some of your shots in the forum here. Many thanks for your service to our great country!

It's pretty difficult for me to post photos from where I usually hit the forum, as most of my stuff is hosted on Flickr and the powers that be block that site at work (they block my own server as well, for some reason.)

There's a bunch of OIF5 photos here - a lot of them are self portraits, helps the folks deal with me being gone (again.) Otherwise my "professional" site is here. One of these days, when I get back, I'll upload all of my OIF3 photos as well.

My new Canon 40D will be here on Monday! Got the EF 28-135 lens.....the next two major purchases will be the Sigma 10-20 and the Canon EF 70-200 f/2.8 L IS (this one will be a while).

 

[macktruckturner]

the 70-200 2.8L IS is a real joy, you will not regret that purchase when you make it.

Canon XSi. I love it. I'm getting cabin fever waiting for spring to hit so that things around here stop looking white, grey, black and brown.
