WHICH CAMERA???


Ahhh a burning hot question… and the camera manufacturers these days don’t make it easier to answer!!  Thousands of products to choose from, all of which do SOMETHING ‘differently’ or ‘better’… Where’s the justice?????

Ok I’ll try to help you out here, try to help  you understand who you are and what you’re looking for and tell you what’s important… But here’s a no-brainer right off the bat; If you’re only interested in pressing that shutter on AUTO and just having a nifty, funky little device in your pocket, this is not the forum for you!!

I’m a guy who pushes my camera to try to do things out of the box… letting It get a little weather worn or even holding a lens backwards against the sensor.  So whatever camera this article helps you choose, my advice is to get down and dirty with it.

More after the jump!

Me and what this blog is all about



Hey everyone, kicking off a blog is all very exciting and all that, but it's got to have a purpose, some kind of aim and goal in mind, so let me share that with you.

My name is Sajith, I'm a 3d artist by profession, and the element of my work lies in architectural visualisation.  Learning about photography has helped me a lot in my field of work when it comes to choosing angles for the virtual images, getting the lighting right, using a good focal length, understanding depth of field etc.

Photography is a hobby for me, but it's more and more becoming a passion as I learn more and more about it.  Now here comes the catch, I have not formally studied photography, and all I know is what I have read up on, discussed, seen, heard and done.  So all that I know is thanks to the countless people out there who have been kind enough to share their knowledge online, in forums, blogs and videos, and that's what I plan to do with this blog; To make it a learning and sharing centre for anything and everything photography related.  Anything new I learn, I will aim to share with you on a weekly basis, and whatever feedback I get, will help me in return to push my limits further and do better.

So there you have it, I hope this blog serves and helps many out there looking for information, and I hope it inspires more of you to share your knowledge too!  And here's the 1st tip - don't be safe with your photography! Push yourself and your camera and E-X-P-E-R-I-M-E-N-T!!!

*Disclaimer - no I won't buy your damaged equipment :) Cheers!
