I have a surprise!!

[Meysha]

Ok well I'm not going to be like crazy amanda, or teasing Dan ... I'm gonna tell you straight out and to the point.

I just bought a 50mm f/1.8 for my sexy 350D. Woo Hooo! :cheer: I have Ian (Xmetal) to thank for it. He spent all morning peer pressuring me into buying it. So mate, when I'm poor and hungry and living on the street, but I'll have my trusty 50mm prime, I'll know who to thank. :hug::

Nah thanks dude, I know I'll love it!
And thanks to everyone else on the board who's posted photos from a 50mm, you've had me convinced I needed to buy one for months now!!

Now I just have to wait until Friday to get it. And then on Sunday, I'll be flying to Brisbane for 5 days to see my boyfriend and also for my Air Traffic Control Interview. So it's just win-win week for me!! Yay! Yay!

[Scurra]

cool stuff Meysha, I think I may have to go down the prime lense route eventually as well.

 

[LittleMan]

prime is the way to go!

 

[Alison]

Enjoy it! I look forward to seeing some photos from your new baby

Congrats on the new purchase! :thumbup: Sounds awesome, and we'll expect to see some cool pictures from the trip, too!

 

[bluesaphyer]

Congrats! :cheer:

I just got the same lens on Friday, a birthday present from my brother.

I love mine, and once you get yours you'll be soooo happy that you got it.

Congrats, they are damn good...till you drop them, like I did, then they make annoying sounds

heh, that bounced along a cobbled square in Luxembourg last week - still working fine though

Meysha you'll really enjoy the lens, and it shouldn't make you broke as it's about the cheapest one there is - plus when you have it, you hardly ever need a flash - win win!
