Sandy, what kind of camera and lens do you use to get such amazing shots? I'm serious. I'm thinking of upgrading my 8-year-old digital.
I use a Nikon D70S with a 70-300mm zoom lense with a nikon 5T close-up attachment lense. I am saving up for a micro lense. I just bought this camera a couple of months ago and am still figuring it out. So far I love it! P.S. I always use a tripod and a shutter release cable when taking garden pictures. Especially close-ups.
Thanks Sonia!
That's a real vision!
Ah the Nikon D70S is a very good digital camera, my friend, a photographer, is using it too! And you have the perfect equipment! I think I'll also need a tripod, cos it seems that I'm always shaking a bit, even if I try not too *rolleyes*
I also have a Nikon F65 and a Sony Cybershot. I would like to learn alot on my D70S so I can take good slides. It is just so expensive learning with film. I've spent a small fortune on film and developing.
Your photos are absolutely stunning. You seem to be mastering your camera very well. What is the blue flower in this photo?
Thanks for the info. Lots to learn before upgrading.
Thank you Alice. The flower is Caryopteris.
Susan-A digital SLR isn't something I would recommend to people unless they enjoy 35mm photography. I like it because I'm a extreme control freak. There are tons of great point and shoots that have higher megapixels and take excellent pictures.
That is wonderful Sandy, I have to learn things from you.
I'm just a beginner Jac!
