Back and camera frustrations

I’m mostly back now, I say mostly because I managed to fry the damn SD card reader in my computer so although I have tons of new photos that I want to share, I have no way to do so at the moment. Of course my four card readers are no where to be found. The entire situation really got me thinking about my camera (Sony DSC-W120) in general which has seen better days, I am not going to lie it’s been through hell I basically have to manually open the lens now. The ISO settings on my camera are horrible and I have noticed reds and purples sometimes get distorted (especially noticeable in some of my pullip photos). I started seriously looking at DSLR’s again last night (it’s a exercise in futility at the moment, but I am hopeful Santa might bring me one for Christmas this year) I basically went through my entire contact list on flickr and seen what cameras everyone was using. I noticed that several of the photos that I was really drawn to were all taken with the Canon EOS Rebels. After reading reviews in various photography magazines I have been steadily acquiring I think the one I want is the Canon EOS Rebel XS it has all the features I want for a reasonable price.

I’m still just really toying with the idea but I think this camera has the potential for awesomeness and that it would give me a potential for more growth as a photographer.

    I have heard good things about Canon EOS Rebel XS, but I am a Nikon guy now so I can’t offer anything to help with your selection. All I can say is that since I switch over to the world of entry level DSLR, I am very pleased with the result I have been able to achieve so far. More lovely photos for my Dollfie Dream, just the way I want them to be!

      I used to have to use a Nikon at work they are nice but I don’t think I would ever, choose one as my personal camera. I just had a really hard time working with it granted it was not entry level so that probably didn’t help. I am actually going to be getting the new camera sooner rather than later, should be here Tuesday (somehow managed to finagle my boss for it, flip-side is I might have to teach a mini class about it and have to be able to do troubleshooting for the other employees but I am not going to bitch about a free camera). I am hoping the new camera will inspire me to take lots of pictures of my beloved dollfies.
