What do you mainly use your DSLR for?

Changed the word "Mostly" to "Mainly"

Giving a speech tomorrow, adding a poll to add credibility to my audience/topic relationship that most people use DSLR's as a hobby.

Can't be both because of the word mostly. However if you do shoot professional regularly, I recommend voting professional regardless.

vacation snapshots.

+1 And I think there should be more options than "mostly" this and that. It's 100% hobby for me.

Yeah, you guys are right...the word "mostly" can be confusing.

Well, it's a hobby only because I don't earn enough $,$$$,$$$ to live off of yet.

I'll post a few photos on various forums to help tell a story or such, but other than that, if I don't think I have a chance at selling a shot, I probably won't take it. "Oh, that would be a neat shot ... yeah, but what am I going to do with it? Nah."

you wont take a shot if you cant sell it? seriously?

you beat me to it - I hate you, hate you, hate you....

(runs off crying...)

It gets me out of the house.

Hobby here...

I would have voted 'only for hobby' had that been an option.

I have two setups, One is for work only and I never shoot recreationally with it, the other is for fun only, I don't bring it to work. I need a both category.

Honest. Unless it's super special for some reason. I've got 1,000's of pix stored that I'll never look at again already!
