Hiya,
I got a little big of money from the hubby today and I was thinking instead of spending it on spiders, I ought to spend some of it to get me a decent digital camera.
I'm kinda die-hard in that I dont' want a straight digital camera. I want one with some manual functions, where I can control the lense and do things like selective focusing. I don't want to have to stand there for 20 minutes waiting for the camera to settle so that the object isn't a blur.
I'd like to be able to do some of the cool macros shots I see here too, BUT...
I don't have an arm and a leg to spend. I only have a couple hundred
dollars to spend (darn it, there I go with that return button at the end of
every line).
Anyway, I only have a little bit to spend, and chances are, I'm not going to
be able to get EVERYTHING I want in digital, but if I can get at least half of
it, then maybe I can sell some of my artsy types of photos to move up to a
better camera.
I really want to get some good shots of some of my favorite tarantulas and my other critters too. Anyone got any ideas?
(I saw another related thread, but the question wasn't the same as mine, so
figured I might as well start a new one).
