Not to mention everything better that the 30D has. AF points, CMOS sensor, better built body, nice L glass options, and more things.

 

and this means what? lol i dont understand this statement...

 

the D40 has to have AF-S lenses. The lens has to focus. So I have a limited amount of lenses I can chose from.

And yeah all the stuff titaniumss said

3 AF Points = FTMFL!!! hahaha

i would also like to say that

30D + 24-70 f/2.8L >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> D40 + 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6

 

dont get the 24-70 for the 30d... get the 17-55 2.8 IS

 

I love my 24-70L on my 50D Of course from the pictures I've seen, I can't justify spending all that money on the 17-55 that POTN so highly regards. Especially it not even being L glass. I plan on going FF though, so my lenses are ready for the move.

 

24-70 is a sweet focal length it gives me the ability to be really pretty close or not so close.

24-70 is my typical focal length im at with the 18-135 that I have now.

 

here's some

 

youre wrong.. it is L glass... lol it is just a EFS mount... honestly dont buy something that you plan on getting.. get something for what you HAVE... the 24-70 will be too long on a crop IMO...

 

It has worked perfect on mine and has gotten the best pictures also. And it doesn't get the same treatment as L lenses it's good if you want the same range as the kit lens with just slightly better glass and 2.8, but I will be going FF in the next year.

 

yeah but for spec..he wont be anytime soon.. so im not worried about you so much.. honestly its alot better than the kit lens.. lol its basically a 24-70 on a crop...

 

I will be getting a FF camera in probably a year and a half.

 

dude.. then why spend money on a 30d now....? you dont make any sense....

 

I want to have 2 bodies. And the 30D is a great second body/backup body.

 

Yep, that's how my 50D is going to work. I'm either planning on the 5D mk II or a 1Ds mk III if the price drops from the mk IV coming out.

 

Bout the same route im looking at!! lol.

I'm leaning more towards waiting for the 1Ds mk III dropping though.

 

Same here. I'd rather have more AF points and the 1 series attributes than the video on the 5D mk II.

 

Yeahh the video just doesn't do it for me. Plus I want the faster FPS too.

 

Soon you guys are going to have cameras worth more then your cars with the way u people are thinking. Unless photography is your career, you don't need a camera like that.

 

I do not plan on it being a full blow career but I do plan on doing a lot of photography as a side kind of thing.

 

Thank you. I would say I am only a beginner in photography,if you you tube myfakeevo you will see I am a machine at videography.



I actually did a photo where the tree was focused and the car was blurry but it actually didnt look very well.

 

two head shots for yall...

 

Here is the portrait picture I took of the Parliament building this weekend. I think as some have said that the portrait version allowed for the building to be a bit more in focus. Let me know what you all think!

 

One more:

 

sick06 - the fist two are great!! the third one is awesome too i just don't like the fingers that you can just barely see at the bottom of the photo.

SKCobalt - Very nice picture. I wish the trees weren't so cluttered covering the bottom portion of the building. But hey what are you gonna do right? haha

 

todays shot: not really for c&c jsut playin aroudn with that fish eye adapter, understanding it has to use a large aperture to get everything in focus so ignore the edges. lol
