There's mine... nothing incredibly good but...
What can I say, I was using a loaned camera
Not to sound like an a$$, but you shouldn't complain about the D40. It's a good camera, if you can't figure out how to use it, you differently shouldn't get a d300.
BTW, do you mind if I add your photos to the AP santa wars album?
Not to sound like an a$$, but he never complained about the camera, he's just not used to it. He's got experience and deserves more credit than I think you give him about his knowledge of cameras, and I think if you're used to professional cameras then going down to a D40 would be a stupid thing to do. So yes, he should differently get a D300.
Yeah, you're right, he can't get good shoots because he isn't used to it.
I shot a wedding recently,, with my camera and a D40 with little or no time to play with it. The photos came out fantastic.
I can pick up about any Canon or Nikon camera and use it like I've one for years.
Alijah, you normally shot with a canon 40D, am I correct?
Yes your photos are good too. No need to complain.
I just want to note that the reason for my bitterness, I am just sick of people saying that they can't get as good photos, because "their camera isn't as good as mr. X" or shows up to an paid event with a lack of knowledge of their own gear. (yes, I can name a few people that I had to help. Oh gawd.
)
Yours isn't exactly that cases stated above, but it reminds me of them.
And it wasn't a paid event, it's all good. Airsoft is actually GREAT practice!
I hope me and other skilled airsoft photogs can work side by side more often.
