I've decided to look into used options.

I am considering two options right now.

I can get a 400D with the stock 18-55mm lens for about 220pounds

I can also get a 1000D with the same kit for about 275pounds.

I've been checking out the differences and both cameras seem to be very similar. The major difference to me is the Live View Option on the 1000D.

Are there any other meaningful differences? Would you guys say the Live View Function is worth the additional 55pounds?

No.

[Lance]

Thought so.

The guy accepted my best offer on the 400D (XTi) and I jumped on it. Should be here in the next few days.

Thanks a lot guys!

The XS is a good start... so is the 400d.

I just sold my XS and the guy's having a blast... but I'm cameraless now

The things we do to pay bills...

[pugboy]

no need to get the latest and most expensive bodies,
just learn to figure out what to practice
you will hardly likely use all the bells/whistles in the newer models.

No.

agreed. Live View is not useful IMO unless you are shooting video with your DSLR

Decided to use my Tamron 75-300 today... This shot was taken from 150ft away @ 300mm, no crop. Also was hiding behind ah window, so all in all, it's not bad lens for $150.

Yes, he's my neighbor
Yes, he's a cross dresser
Yes, he gotta woman (I think it's a she)

Yes, today is the first time I'm seeing him after hearing about it a few months ago
Yes, you should buy ah long range lens for moments like this

It also sucks your battery, and messes up focus. The only good implenetation of this I have used is the in the Nikon D5000, the swivel screen can let you shoot overhead shots or get down low by swiveling the screen and positioning the camera where your head cannot go to look through the viewfinder. I think this is the best implementation I have seen to date.

The new sony alpha (which I have not personally tried, but I have heard great things about) has a semi transparent mirror, so it can focus AND give you live view at the same time, AND refocus between every shot in burst mode. They say the new nikons can focus and give live view at the same time, but I will wait on some reviews before I get hyped about it.

Nah, I never met him before... His father, the owner of the house is ah cool old man.. Got a 911 C4s parked in the garage, so we talk about cars etc.. Looks like the son does play the fool when the father go to florida for the winter.

Ok, on with the pics..
