I’m on Instagram as\u00a0kyleatninecrows<\/a> but most of my photos are on this site at the moment…now wondering how to use the site at all as I can’t see any way to add photos.<\/p>\n

I stayed away from photography until I bought my first digital camera. I knew I wasn’t going to be very good at taking pictures when I started and the idea of developing roll after roll of 35mm film to throw away most of the shots was unacceptable.<\/p>\n

Being able to take pictures and look at them on a computer screen, experiment and learn as I went sucked me in rather quickly.<\/p>\n

My first camera was a small, silver Olympus one-shot that took smart-media cards. It was a handy little camera with almost no user control on the shooting process. This served me well as I learned to get the content I wanted in my pictures. Eventually the slow focusing, poor low light performance and small card capacity made me move on.<\/p>\n

I went through a Konica-Minolta Dimage-Z6 super zoom and then on into the world of SLRs. It was clear at the time that Canon and Nikon were the two big players. My initial choice of a Canon camera was pretty much a coin toss. I started with an EOS-40D, moved up to a 7D and then to the 5D mark III that I’m currently shooting with. Having committed to Canon EF and EF-S series lenses, that pretty much locks me out of the Nikon world.
