Buying Your First DSLR

Stop on a street corner in the city and wait for long enough, you'll see the odd person carrying a DSLR. Rewind a few years and this would have been a fairly rare occurrence, but with the DSLRs now more readily available and with people willing to forego their point and shoot in favour of camera phones, suddenly it seems like every man and his dog has a DSLR. I think the fact that there are more people interested in photography is fantastic. What really hurts my heart though, is how misinformed many people are when they first pursue photography as a hobby. Here's just a couple of things to watch out for when buying your first DSLR.

• One of a photographer's best friends? Jeans. Because you're always kneeling, squatting, lying down, on your knees, on your bum and generally in a strange variety of positions. #
• The US is contributing about AU$4 billion in 2010-2012 towards climate change. For perspective: the M5 tunnel duplication project costs that much. Japan & EU? AU$12 billion. Each. #
• Is 1st November too early for Christmas decorations? Our Christmas tree is already up! #
• Currently at Animania Adelaide. Stay tuned for a convention report in the next few days. #
• Leaving for Animania Adelaide this weekend. My bags are on their way over on the truck and the support crew are driving over there now. It's a good two day drive from Sydney to Adelaide, so we're wishing them well (The rest of us are flying over. Ha!). #
