Tell us about your camera and how you use it. What’s the one thing you like the most about your camera? Are you using a cameraphone? They are great for shooting when you come across an unexpected spectacular moment. Some of the excellent moments have been captured on cameraphones. Or are you using a DSLR?
If you are still making up your mind to buy one, you can check out the quick buying guide here. Tell us what you’d like to know more about your camera. We are coming up with some great posts for the camera owners so have your say before we start.
We have been covering a lot of basic and technical topics on the photography front in the last one month. We’d like to know you better and collect your suggestions. We want to make sure we know you and your camera so that the information is relevant, is usable and valuable. So what are you waiting for? Come on say something :)
I use Nikons…a D5100, a D3100 and a P500 (a Sony DSC-H70 is usually on my belt — phew). Lenses include Nikon 50mm 1.8, 55-300, 18-105 (superb), 18-55 kit lens (amazing), and a Tamron 18-270 PZD (stunning). Funniest thing is, despite my huge urge to shoot pictures like crazy, my 10-hour, 6-days-a-week job leaves me so fagged out by Saturday evening (I’m running 64) that I can hardly summon up the energy to go walkabout on Sunday..and me in India ! The only recourse left to me is take a few grab shots en route to office (depending wholly on serendipity), or do some available light (read fluorescent) portraiture during the lunch break, in office (I usually pack the D5100 with 50mm 1.8 in my bag). So am I crazy or what !
I have always owned Pentax film cameras (still have them) and so when I went digital I stayed with Pentax, first getting a K10D and I now also have the K5 with which I am well pleased. The reason I stayed with Pentax is being able to still use my old favourite lenses as well as the more modern ones. I have also picked up some really great lens bargains on ebay.
