I sprung for new camera
#1
Figured I do enough photog work to warrant dropping a wad of cash on a new camera. I went with a Canon Rebel XTi. It came with a kit lens so I'll be playing around with that 'till I get another couple good ones.
Don't know how well it photographs Jeeps but it likes close up shots. I just ran around the house shooting things to see how stuff came out.
I guess this will be my dump thread where I post way too many pics. Oh well, I gotta learn it.

Very nice Mike. Jen is excited so you can take nice pics of Aubrey when she is born. No, not of her being born, after she is born.

If we use Mikes camera and then have him make and print the cards for us we can get them a lot cheaper than Costco.
