I´ve joined the club

[Rense]

Today I got a whole new series of equipment :-), look at my sig and subtract the S50 to see my purchase of today

Welcome, and oh my god that will have been expensive. Now you get to spend the rest of your life trying to learn how to use them effectively.... or at least the next few months ;)

[Jon]

You're not doing things half way are you? Looks like you've been doing your homework anyway. Welcome to the board.

[Rense]

Jon,
I´ve been lurking at this board for a long time, thanks to all the members for enabling me to do my homework.

[FlyingPete]

Whew, that is a good start! And Welcome aboard :)

You will love the trasition from compact digicam to DSLR, I did mine a month ago, and haven't looked back (want some more glass now though!!).

All these new people going out and buying up an excellent kit ready to go, must be Christmas or something!

[DocFrankenstein]

Now you have no excuses for giving us anything less than perfect images. :D

[Persian-Rice]

My condolences.................hehe

[cricket]

What do you like to photograph? :D

I'd say that you've more than just "joined the club" - YOu've joined it with a great deal of vigor. :)

Congrads and welcome to the world of DSLR photography.

Welcome, Rense, and congratulations on an excellent set-up. You have immediately become the object of envy.

[snibbetsj]

Very nice bit of equipment, you'll love it. It's a lot of fun learning to use it and even better when you take GREAT photos. :)


sarcasm mode ON:

I see you only have one bag, if you continue to frequent the forum, you'll need several more, if only to carry your credit card bills (which we all accrue) :lol:

sarcasm OFF:

Merry Christmas :)

Hi Rense,
Your series are awesome and I think It costs at least many thousands bucks. Hope that you can learn how to use them all before 2010 lol.
Just one thing, why did you get these both two lens: 17-40/4.0L - Tam28-75/2.8 XR Di 580EX.
U just need the Tamron :-)

Finally, welcome to forum. We're waiting for your pics. Hurry up :-)

Spoken like someone who doesn't appreciate wide vistas . . . If he had a 1Ds or film EOS, 28'd be wide; on a 20D it's "normal".

So sorry for you, having given up a large part of your retirement fund, :)

Welcome, and give us a link to some work when you get some going.
