I love photography but can't get my head round all in the info like exposure and aperture!! I so wanna know but my mind just goes blank!
I do love to take photos tho! I have a small canon ixus860IS p&s that I take everywhere. As for my DSLR:

- Canon 350d
- Canon 70-300 mm f/4-5.6 IS USM
- Canon 17-40mm f/4.0 L USM
- Canon macro 100mm f/2.8 USM
- Canon 28-90mm f/4-5.6 II USM
- Canon 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6
- Velbon Tripod
- Hama Tripod
- Epson p200 (portable harddrive with CF & SD slot)

My little epson storage device at the time was cheaper to buy then a 4gb mem card!! It's so useful, a little slow but has come in so useful esp when you can't take a laptop on holiday can save all my pics on it. Plays movies too!
The last two lenses are kit lenses from the 350d and my 35mm Canon 300 rebel.
I got a cool lowpro bag too! That my boyf doesn't mind wearing so I can still carry my LV!!

I LOVE taking pics and finding creative ways to edit the photos...

I have a Nikon D40 that I got for Xmas, but I don't really know all about it yet - I am thinking maybe about going to Best Buy and having them explain it to me!

When I first read the title of this thread I thought it said "Any tPFers into Pornography?" Shows where my mind is...

Screw Best Buy, read up on the D40 here. Ken Rockwell has a plethora of information on photography on his site, it's worth checking out.

What an absolutely fabulous shot, the Sydney Opera House is my most favourite building and this photo is simply brilliant.

AS much as I love my Sony Cybershot my favourite camera is my Canon T70 SLR which I hate to admit is now 23 years old. I wouldn't sell it or trade it for the world, I love working with film and I find that my T70 is a brilliant workhorse and other than a minor overhaul of the motor drive it hasn't given me any trouble.

Canon T70
2x tele converter
80 - 210mm
28 - 70mm
50mm
