    Starting point

    Just got a second hand canon (300d) today.

    I want to get back to enjoying photography like I did with a pentax K1000 and get back more control. I went down the covenience / simplicity / compact digital route some years ago !!

    Aim to improve from this point, taken before I got the Canon:

    Welcome to the forums Steve. :)

    I'll let you off in the post here with a non-Canon pic, cos it clearly shows how inferior other brands are as the colours in this is just awful, hehehe..


    Look forward to seeing your 300D giving us some results. I started off with the 300 myself.

    Paul.
