[QUOTE="rolfw, post: 312566, member: 175057"] I've always liked popping away with my camera, not to achieve perfection, but to try and shoot something eye catching or interesting, I started off with an Ilford Sporty 4, then went on to an Olympus Trip and then a Pentax Me Super, followed by my first digital camera, a Kodak. That didn't last long, as it didn't have an optical zoom, so I bought a Fuji Finepix S5000 (which I still have). I'm not very good technically, but with a recent investment in some high quality equipment, my results are sometimes accidentally quite good from an amateur's standpoint. My latest kit is an Olympus E500 Digital SLR, with three zoom lenses and a 1.4x teleconterter. My pride and joy is the new Sigma 50-500 telephoto zoom, with whch I am having a lot of fun at the moment.:) Tell us what equipment you have, whether it be a small pocket camera, or a high end model, we are interested. :) Perhaps include some of your interesting or pride and joy photos. :) [/QUOTE]
