that i have, and good lookin stuff.

I have found with more of the point and shoot ones, you can get some decent pictures, if you know how to take a picture. Majority of the photos that you see that just blow your socks off, are not due to equipment, rather, the eye of the photographer and his/her ability to depict some good composition.

for me, the SLR and lenses, its a hobby which i thouroughly (i cant spell that word for some reason this morning) enjoy. Besides, gives me something to dump money into besides the house, car, watches, computers... oh ****....

yeah, its a hobby
