hittin me hard there without warning...

the money is in the lens...for taking good action shoots on ducks you are going need a lens that has a 2.8 apeture or smaller, which gets expensive

JPEG limits were not that important to us. We purchase large volume SD cards to store our pictures. The IS lens was a must have feature for us. When taking action shots you move with the action. This movement causes blur effect at times. The IS feature helps eliminate this blur.

May i ask, with yalls action shots, what do yall shoot wildlife,sports,etc?


My mom has a Manolta Dimage 2? which also needs the Larger Volume SD cards...hers is 7 fps. She said I should check with a buddy that runs a pawn shop, for lens. One of our friends got a good deal on one there.

Maybe if enough people are interested in photography we could ask shad to throw us a section....

I know bayslayer's wife has her own photography business im sure Bayslayer would be glad to relay info from her to here! lol

Action shots---sports, wildlife, kids riding bicycles--4 wheeler--water slides--diving--swim strokes etc. etc. etc.

Pawn shops,ebay and others are good places to search.

Lens---we have a 35mm cannon EOS body with a EF 35-105mm lens that we use on our digital XSI for everyday shots also.

Fool, if you get a IS lens you can catch that shot of your Corky flying through the air and the sea gull grabbing it in mid air.

Might shoot Will a email asking what kind of lens he uses for majority of those shots.

So i guess i'll end up getting the XSI, and searching for a good lens..i'll end up referring back to yall on what lens to look for.
