Seriously. It is too easy to take nice pics of jelly fish. Here is my photo from a year ago at the Monterrey Bay Aquarium:

We should have some sort of s sticky or something cause this questions always pops up every so often. Not getting mad or anything but there should be some sortof a reference we can point to so people just don't come in and ask the same questions all the time.

Anyways......pretty much comes down to two brands imo...which are Nikon and/or Canon. If was was to start out right now and get a camera all over again, Iwould definitely get the Canon T1i seeing it has the most updated gadgets for an entry level camera, regardless if you want to shoot video or not. If that is alittle out of your budget, then I would recommend the Canon XSi which is like the T1i but without the video option. Still, if you are heavily into this hobby(which happened to the majority of us) you will eventually upgrade in the near future (2-3 year tops from how I see it). So invest in an entry level cameraknowing what lenses you want to invest your money into. Remember, lenses really make your photos and not the body. Get a entry level camera, save up for a goodlens, and use that to practice until you want to advance to another body later.

Hope that helps.

Hope that helps.

I lurk in here quite often, but good lookin' out, fam. I think I'm gonna' go with the Canon XSi, it seems more in my price range at the moment.Once I pick up the camera I'll probably post again in this thread in a couple weeks about a good lense to pick up.

Just givin' you a heads up for future reference.

Lowepro Slingshot 100 AW or the 200 depending on what size bag you need ($60 for the 100 -$80 for the 200)

Yea, I was looking at that.

This too, but I wish there was one that fit a laptop in there too,

Randoms.

First attempt at Brenizer's method. 15+ photos.

Second attempt. 29 photos.

Before & After. School assignment.

Larger versions on blog. C&C?

 

[SVNTI]

Brenizer's method
I can't figure that method out. Once I have all my shots, I go to stitch them in photoshop and all photoshop does is align them all in avertical line. One on top of the other.

 

[termanology27]

It's tricky and takes a lot of time but the outcome is great. Try using photomerge on ps.

 

[airphilippines]

^I like the after pic of DC.

 

[j paycheck]

@ termanology27 good stuff homie. Random thought but You and this other guythat take pics of his lady often, Nacho Broadway (think is the SN), always deliver and I like the photos ya'll share. There's a couple other in thethread with iLL stuff of course but ya'll two always have stuff I find sick.

Termanology, what school and what's the blog.

 

[im not you]

I hate these lazy lapses I have. I haven't shot in what seems like forever. I just moved so I've been so damn busy. I was all geeked for FotoWeek lastweek and didn't even attend anything.

Exact same thing here (except for the moving part) but I plan to do something about it soon, very soon... no excuse.
