OMD² Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 Well we ended up getting the Canon We are still learning how everything works.. But I keep opting for playing around with the camera instead of reading the manual hehehe. So here are some pics I have taken so far. Chris These are all taken with the 50mm 1.8 One day I hope to be half as good as all of you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirislin Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 What model camera did you buy and did it come with kit lenses or did you buy the body and lens separately? I ended up changing my camera so instead of half pressing the shutter button to focus and then fully pressing to take the photo, I customised it so I use the * button to focus. You get used to it really quickly and it's much better IMO. Do a bit of both, play with the camera but then go back and read the manual to better understand.
