Hello and welcome. If your camera is the T2i, you should check out the T2i Users UNITE board, you'll find many other users there. I've had mine since last April and love it! This forum is so helpful- lots of great photographer and newbies and everyone in-between offer some great advice.


Canon T2i, EF-S 18-135mm f3.5/5.6 IS, EF 70-300mm 4.5-5.6 DO IS USM

To help you "get the hang of it" I recommend you buy "Understanding Exposure" by Brian Peterson.

When I started into DSLR that book helped me understand all the missing pieces.

Have fun with that new camera. Those 2 lenses will give you a good start.

Isn't that the other way around? It's a 550D and they just call it by something else in those rebellious colonies.

Not to confuse names further, but it is also known as the Kiss X4 in Japan.
