A few months ago I won a $250 gift certificate to Ritz Camera for a photo contest I entered. I've always owned regular point and shoot digital cameras and I've been drooling
over the more professional (and expensive) DSLR cameras.
Now that I had $250 burning a hole in my pocket, I decided I had to go for it. A few weeks ago I bought a Canon Digital Rebel XTi, but there is a bunch more stuff to get to get started. I bought a memory card and I still have to buy a lens, filters, and a camera bag to get started. I finally decided on the first lens I'm going to buy and I am going to the store to order it today.
After I finish getting everything, I will have spent around $1250 - $250 gift certificate. That $250 gift certificate cost me $1000!!!
Anyway, hopefully next week I'll have my lens and I will have some great pictures of my cats to share. They will be my test subjects while I am practicing.
