Thanks Pam for the information. Do you have a web gallery where I could go and view your photos? I am not sure how to view your photos in goapow. Also what is the price range on the camera and lens if you don't mind sharing. |

Hi Pam again, I just figured out how to view you photos on goapow. I did a search on photos i reviewed and I had reviewed one of yours. When I click on your name it allows me to go and view your gallery. Honey you got great photos. Did you use your Canon EOS 30D and Conon 75-300mm lens on most of them. Or did you use the stabilization lens. I am so eager to get great photos like yours. They rock.
Thanks,

I have it and pretty happy with it, now it is around $600 new and still good. I did not see big difference between 20d and 30d. Sony 717 - i think it is offered by Larry on our junkyard, - it is a jem for the money, but the next step is 828 that is very very good. Lenses - it depends what you want to do. without reservation 100mm 2.8 is an excellent lense with 24 degree angle, very sharp and not expensive, - it is rare for canon. 17-85 is a middle quality lense for middle quality money, not bad at all, but... 75-300 - the same. I prefere top quality lenses because it is what makes you images, may be to look for manual lenses? But it is not bad combination, stay away from 18-55, mediocre one. If you want to change camera now and not bonded to any brand by lenses - I think sony alfa is the best buy, but 20D is very good and I am not in a harry to change it. Good luck |

Thank you so much for the information. Cameras are so expensive and it is hard to know what to buy.
Thanks again,
