New 30D User; RFI do's, don'ts, pros, consPosted By ken blankenship |
My wife and I finally decided to take the plunge this week. We got a Canon 30D with the 28-135mm kit lens that came with it; the battery grip; a 4G memory card; and a Canon 100-400mm zoom lens.
Obviously, we're digesting the 1000+ pages of manuals right now. But what I'd really appreciate would be some personal accounts by folks who use the same or similar set-up... what have you figured out that makes it easier to use, or some simple tricks that you use a lot that we could start implementing right away, and especially any pit-falls or limitations that you have found with this camera. We have been using a 2.1 megapixel Olympus C2400 (ca. 2000) for so long, can't wait to get this baby out in the field to see what it can do. We're doing our first SE Arizona birding trip in a week - should be sweeeeeeet
Thanks - always a helpful group!
