I've been a shutterbug since I was 12. Received the 4-cube camera for my birthday. Still an amatuer, but there are times I amaze myself :) I have a Canon EOS 60D. It takes wonderful pictures. I carry it in a back pack, which isn't too heavy, but it is not something that you can whip out quickly to catch the hummingbird or just being spontaneous. That is when I wish I had a GOOD quality smaller camera. My question to you is "why in the world can't you have both!" <br />Best wishes to you and yours,<br />Carolpreciousdittohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10206207840903137302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7757387388608137930.post-41280041677055094782012-09-08T00:06:09.583-04:002012-09-08T00:06:09.583-04:00Hiya!

I have always been a Nikon user. I use a Nikon D90 and love, I have a few lens and have great fun shooting. <br />Best of health to you always,<br />JenAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7757387388608137930.post-87457526336743284962012-09-05T14:35:13.844-04:002012-09-05T14:35:13.844-04:00I've been thinking about you and your surgery ...I've been thinking about you and your surgery today.

I just don't yet have the strength to hold the camera with the macro lens. Yes, maybe 423 pictures in on day is too many, but we were in a botanical garden and I was so happy to be up close and personal with all the flowers! I also have the Cannon S90 power shot and love it for fast and easy pictures! Sending you light and healing energy tomorrow. I hope you got my email a week or so ago!

During college, I majored in Journalism & Film, had a darkroom and shot with a used Pentax. <br /><br />In my early 20s, I shot pictures from the sidelines of all the Dallas Cowboy home games for the San Antonio Light newspaper. During a Monday Night Football game on ABC, legendary sports photographer, Neil Leifer, walked up to me & handed me one of his Nikons that had a motor drive & was on a monopod. Oh, my stars! The quality of my pictures with the Nikon was sooooo much better w/his camera that my husband finally bought me one, with a motor drive.<br /><br />Since then, I've owned an underwater camera, a panorama camera, and I made my own pinhole camera. For over 10 years I worked as a professional photographer. After breast cancer, I wanted to take photographs for my blog, but didn't want the hassle of an SLR and interchangeable lenses, so I bought a small digital camera. It's capabilities were limited. I talked with loads of pros, read all the reviews and bought a Canon G10 and love it! From time to time, I wish for interchangeable lenses, but in reality, I don't want to fool with that anymore. <br /><br />Since James died, I haven't really taken many photos, but Marie's exercise gave me the bug, again, and I'm really grateful.<br /><br />XOXOXO,<br />BrendaBreastCancerSisterhood.comhttp://breastcancersisterhood.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7757387388608137930.post-21675945202354377222012-09-04T10:31:44.168-04:002012-09-04T10:31:44.168-04:00Thinking of you as Wednesday starts in the souther...Thinking of you as Wednesday starts in the southern hemisphere - hope all goes well and that you're back showing us pics very soon!!Lizhttp://www.paw-paw-salad.comnoreply@blogger.com
