Hey guys!
Ive been into taking pictures for the last few years with only point and shot cameras. After my friend got a Rebel Xti i got really jealose, haha. So i asked for a DSLR for my birthday (Feb 1st). And sure enough at the end of the day after i thought i wouldnt get a camera, my dad slung a Nikon D40x around my neck! I was soooo happy! Ive taken well over a thousand pictures in the last few days! I'm really into sports photography of myself and my buds doing things like mountain biking, snowboarding and other things of that nature.
Anyway, I'm going on a ski trip with my school next weekend and would like some pointers on shooting on the slopes. A few minutes ago i bought a screw on fisheye lens (52mm thread) for the 18-55mm lens that came with my camera. I cant wait to use this to get some cool shot of hitting rails and jumps!
I currently do NOT have a camera bag to carry it around in. If you guys have any suggestion that would be great. I only need something that will hold the camera with MAYBE an extra lens and be able to ride with and not get in way, i.e. back pack. It also has to be stylish and compact. So basicly just something to keep the camera safe and try while snowboarding and biking.
Thanks a bunch guys!
