My First DSLR

Dear diary,

Santa heard my wish.

Decided on the brand Canon, model EOS 500D, lens 18-200mm.

Canon EOS 500D

On top of that, bought fixed lens (50mm, f1.8) too, which works wonders for portraits, my favourite.

This DSLR hunt was kinda stressful. A lot of thinking, a lot of walking, a lot of asking, a lot of surfing. Thanks to all who patiently answered my queries!

Initially was thinking to get Canon EOS 50D or Nikon D90. But after a lot of research, I think 50D is a little ambitious for now.

Hope this 500D would do me good.

I appreciate good pictures, I love to take photos. This’s my first DSLR, I’ll make good use of it, I promise.

I’m not a pro pro pro at it, but just like to experiment. It’s a hobby. Like how some people love fishing.

Very enthusiastic to learn everything about it! Can’t believe that I spent one whole night reading through the manual.

I don’t usually read manuals. This’s the first, i believe.

Bought the camera during PC fair 2 days ago, was very excited! Feels exactly like ‘bought iphone day’.

So weird right, I’m a girl that like pink stuff and all that but happens to like tech stuff, especially gadgets. I fantasize having a cute pink camera bag for the DSLR though.

Got quite a good deal, a lot of freebies like tripod, special user guide, lens pen, additional memory card etc. All those small small stuff but because it’s free it makes you feel better for the money spent.

Never regret getting the 50mm lens, exactly what I needed, for pictures like this:

Think outside the box.
