Finally done it. Bought a Digital Camera.

First results from my fishroom.

Sorry, can't show you many fish yet. Due to my own stupidity I lost pretty much everything. I'm stocking up again slowly. Going broad-spectrum rather than single species this time.

lovely colours and qualities on the picture Cees......what camera did you get?

Well done Cees. Boy Megan is growing up fast! I am resizing all the Fiji conference pics to send you so you can put them on site with the others. As there are over 600, they are taking a while! :roll:

Don't panic - I am not sending you all of them :lol:

......what camera did you get?

canon eos 300d slr

Yes, already have the 750mm lens for it, am waiting for the T-ring to connect it.

they are cool cameras - i've read alot on them and they have great reviews!

as said, I'm restocking my fishroom and trying out my new camera.

My daughter gave me 3 of these for my birthday .

Not quite in focus yet.

I'm really happy and impressed with my canon eos 300d.

This is just an example of how nice the colors come through. Nothing special, fully automatic, point, shoot. This is the full frame, only processing was an unsharp mask in 'the Gimp' and reduce image size

that's very impressive Cees.....lovely natural colours.

next challenge......find an insect and get in real close :lol:

Yep! :lol:
