Dude I was actually thinking about posting a Mr Burns picture when I said excellent haha.

Nah not a train station. Just like a train carriage covered in graffiti or something. I dunno exactly because I havn't been there yet but I've seen a couple of cars having their photos taken there and it looks good.

ahh even better! been looking at doing something like that. I think it was Matboy in the photo threads did a shoot with a blue (?) R34 with a grafittied background and bought out all the colours in the grafitti and it looks amazing. He is alot more skilled then me but haha, but I'll give it a crack

What camera you got Cal? Im thinking of getting a d3100 ?

[89CAL]

Nikkon?

Personally I think the canons are alot Easier to get used to. I have a 550D. Depends how serious you want to get and how much you know about cameras. Nikons arent a bad camera at all just think there a bit harder to get used to

[beemae30]

Yeah a Nikon. Not full on serious but i would like to be able to take some good photos. From what ive researched the d3100 is the better camera to start with. Just trying to find some personal experience.

[89CAL]

I have only used a nikkon once and found it harder then the canon. But maybe it was just cause I'm used to the canon.

550D's are cheap now cause there going out of production. Twin lense kitt with IS was what I got.

[beemae30]

True might have to have a look. thanks for the head up.

[89CAL]

Try them both. Really have to get what suits you.

[beemae30]

Yeah will go have a look at both on the weekend and make a decision.

[89CAL]

Well now I'm at a computer and can type, Ill say the one thing I didnt like when I used a Nikon was that they dont show a preview of the image with your settings on the screen (when you turn viewfinder view on)

My Canon I can switch to viewfinder mode and adjust my major settings till I'm happy with how the light and depth of the photo are

The Nikon I tried to do the same and it just kep the image that it saw, without altering the image in the viewfinder with changes to the settings (If this makes sense)

That was an older Nikon, probably 4 or so years old now so they might not do this anymore. Its more personal preference, I know lots of people using Nikon's and they like them and they take good photos. but I like the layout on the Canon's, they way they are set out etc.

Only way to find out is to use as many different SLR's you can get your hands on, I went straight for Canon but that doesnt make me right

[beemae30]

Haha. Yeah i think they have altered the software and you can make it do that now. Yeah its just hard to get someone who lets you play with their cam.

[89CAL]

Lol hinting?

[beemae30]
