The responses I am receiving are the reason I choose this site, thank you to all.
I am not cheap, but I am not an expert. Since I really am not sure what to buy and how much money I may be throwing away, I am cautious in what I purchase.
One thing I have learned is about tripods and mono pods. I first purchased a monopod, that was pretty cool. About a month ago, I purchased a Monfrotto tripod and ball head. I spent about $650.00...wow!!! Almost as much as my camera, who would of ever thought that was possible. (psst, don't tell my wife, I may have to move in with you )
I am slowly purchasing my way to poverty :mrgreen: and I am happy with that so far.
But...I can spend a ton, get great equipment and still not know how to use it. That is the next series of steps I am pursuing.
Exposure, Aperture, ISO, manual, AV, TV, Composition, Subject, Lighting, etc... this is what I aspire to learn and actually become as good as you guys...or at least close to.
