Friend of mine loaned me their Canon EOS Rebel XTi -- Might buy it from them -- I have never used a fancy (fancy to ME) camera like this and it is overwhelming to me.

Anyways..here are some of my amateur attempts at framing shots, macro, and such.

Great camera, you have your work cut out for you, best thing is to absorb the manual as best you can and go out and learn the thing!

You must develop your eye, and come to understand the technology, white balance, ISO, aperture, focal length, shutter speed, ect...If you decide to get really serious, a class is highly beneficial.

Follow the link to my photobucket page and page through it(some are the result of trail cameras)if you like, just click on each individual jpeg to open them up to full size, I can't post them here as they are far to big to upload into this forum....All of my images were gathered with either an Eos 60D or 7D DSLR...

Good luck...

I've moved on from the Rebel series camera, great way to lear photography. Learn to use the manual features and be creative with your picture taking. I suck with the paint brush and drawing but shine with the camera. Have fun.

The auto settings can often take good photos but once you learn how all of these setting interact with each other in order to get the best photos or desired effects, you get really good at photography. My digital photography class in college was fun as hell and local universities or tech colleges will often do independent courses as "continuing education" for fairly low cost.
