I am very new to DSLR cameras and am just starting to use mine. For many years, I used a little point and shoot camera and had fun with it...but I wanted something a little more powerful that I could learn to use. I feel like I am learning to take decent photos...but I still have a long way to go. So, I picked up a Canon T3i Rebel and am finding it very fun.
I'm leaving for vacation to Italy in a week or so and will be taking photos of my trip. The purpose of the camera on this trip is more to document memories than take beautiful artistic photos. But, Italy is a very beautiful place so plenty of opportunities for nice photography will present themselves.
A friend of mine suggested that I pick up a cheap polarizing filter as he claims that by filtering the light I will get more vivid colors. I have no experience with such things so I wanted to come here and ask the experts. Is there a benefit to such a filter for a trip like this? Will the pictures I take benefit?
