Camera Question...

Okay, so a lot of you all have really nice pictures and stuff. I am pretty Photoshop savy but I don't have a great camera to do the best with my car and photography "skills." Just wondering what camera you guys use. I have one but it's just for regular pics. It's a Sony Cybershot 5.1 megapixels but I want something for photoshoots and stuff. I've seen some really good deals on eBay for Nikon D60 and Nikon D300. They come with 3 lenses and a bunch of different other ish too.

honestly, you don't need a baller DSLR to take some really nice photos.

I have just a basic 7.1mp Canon SD 550, and if you take your time, and know how to set it up, you can take some awesome pictures with it.

It's more knowing how to set up and use what you have, more than having the latest greatest equipment - i know plenty of guys with new 40D's and such that can't take a good shot to save their lives.

Here's a shot of my old ride just before I sold her off to buy the new 3er



I'd say learn to use what you have to the fullest extent possible, before spending money on something you may not need / or understand how to use to it's maximum.

If you are going for the D300, might as well go full frame as the 5D prices has dropped a lot...
