Lenses are more important than bodies.

Bingo! Lens quality will make or break you. Doesn't matter how good the camera is, if the lens isn't great, the photos will suck. And really, the single most important thing to know to be able to produce stellar photos is found in this saying about photographers:


Amateurs are most concerned about sharpness
Professionals are most concerned about money
Photographers are most concerned about LIGHT!

and here I thought this was gonna be a thread about 120 or 35 or something like that. I mean, this being a vintage site and all that.

Very nice pics (Lens flare aside. Ahem. ).

I mess around a bit with my Nikon D80...

Beautiful macro and post editing on the soldier.

I am guessing you are referring to the lens flare on the black rodster. That is on purpose, added in post edit.

I am still a novice in both photography and editing (I only have Gimp)

Hey those are awesome shots! What camera are you using? I need an upgrade...seriously!!

I have a Canon EOS Rebel XSi, 12.5megapixel. Lenses are more important than bodies. If your camera is 12 mp's or more, you are good, you need better lenses.

I just bought a 17-50mm f/2.8 wide angle lens. It was more than my my body and three other lenses put together.

As you may have read in my other post, I have given up on collecting all together, but I have taken up photography.

Here are some of my best shots
