I like how when you af in the dark with canon cameras it burst flashes. XD

I accidentally blinded someone because of that.

And yeah going manual is probably a good idea. Make sure you have a fast lens too.
[Off-topic] dexter93:
lol @flash burst. on Nikon, there is this huge AF assist lamp which can blind you :eek:

I believe I'll be ok with my Tamron 17-50mm f/2.8

And if things get nasty.. I'll get my 50mm f/1.8 into action

I also might pack the 70-300mm, but I doubt if I'll use it
[Off-topic] jaszek:
Ummm....my camera doesn't burst flash. And what idiot uses a pop-up flash for pro photos?

And Sony cameras do one big flash to meter, then a bigger one to take the photo.
[Off-topic] veeman:
Oh well, mine does. :p

And I'm not a pro... I just had it in P mode with AF on.

Edit: mine does two short bursts to meter.

Also for those of you who can't tell the difference from a snapshot and a photo, a snapshot would be when you see something you like, whip out your phone, and take a quick snap shot of it for memories sake, or to show to someone else, like that barbecue thing. Photos is when you actually look at the composition and other stuff. For snapshots we have the random image thread, or you probably have a "Post pictures taken with X phone" threads in your device forums.

Well, I don't flip the switch to JPEG unless I'm taking quick snapshots that 90% of them will go straight to the bin (read : twice in a year xD). and I always like to edit my shots before uploading, so raw is the way for me :p

But yeah, if you don't want to bother with all that, go jpeg ;)

I am getting a new camera very soon. :D

I got into photography about two years ago. Unfortunately, I have been stuck with a Canon PowerShot SX120 IS for a while (because I don't have money).

After seeing my passion and excitement, though, my parents have agreed to get me a DSLR! :)

I am stuck between getting the outdated, but more "professional," Canon EOS 60D or the newer, more feature-packed Rebel T4i (or 650D). Any suggestions? :o

Here are some of my photos http://mulsivaas.deviantart.com/gallery/
[Off-topic] veeman:
60d IMO is still a better camera but they might be coming out with an update soon so I say wait for a little bit.

[Off-topic] Mulsivaas:
I am 90% sure I am. Mostly because I'm also interested in videography.

Okay, so next question: shorty forty or the 18-135mm? I'm new to buying lenses as well
[Off-topic] samotronta05:
Get the one, you're most comfortable with. For e.g. it doesn't make any sense to buy the 650d, when you have large hands.

Go to a camera store, try them both and then decided which camera fits the best for you.

From a technical standpoint they are pretty neck and neck, if you only shoot photos.

And don't bother to much about the updates, there will be a new 700D and 70D anyway.

When you are getting deeper into photography you will learn, that in 95% of the time the body doesn't matter at all, but the glass in front of it does.

So get the camera you are most comfortable with and then invest in some decent glass.
[Off-topic] Mulsivaas:
Well, I have long, skinny hands. I feel like I could wrap onto a large camera or hold a smaller one just fine either way. But feeling them is excellent. Now, where is the nearest store.. haha.

Since you are a beginner, get the zoom. If you have the cash though, get the 40mm as well. I have it and its a great lense. Its being used as a body cap. Lol
