My First Shots With The New Canon 50D! C&C!

[MikeBookPro]

Ok, guys. I got a chance to take the new gear out for a spin. When FedEx finally came, it was pouring, but after my wife got home from work, it cleared, so we went to the park to take some pictures.

I took about 80 shots, and it went pretty well. Since I've done so much reading, whenever there was an issue that I saw in my LCD, I found myself knowing what to do to fix it. The problem was I was having tons of trouble figuring out how to make the necessary adjustments on the camera itself. So, it's time to spend some time with the ol' manual.

Anyway, here's a couple of the shots I liked. C&C would be great.

EDIT: After looking, I'm not thrilled with the second picture. It's super soft, and even though my kid's cute, that doesn't make it a good picture.

I do, however, like this one.

I really like #1 but #2 & #3 look a little out of focus. Congrats on the new gear!

That last one of the wife in B&W is awesome.

Congrats on the 50D! It's a wonderful camera, I SO miss mine!

so you finally decided to take the shots.

my fave is the first shot.
2nd and 3rd shots are a bit out of focus.
4th is a bit under exposed - lighting needs to be touched up a bit.
