Journal #4

Journal Entry: Sat Apr 19, 2008, 9:27 AM
Hello :wave:

Since I bought my D80 last year, I've been adding some acessories to my gear. So, for now, I have:

:bulletblue: AF-S DX 18-70mm f-3.5-4.5G IF-ED Lens
:bulletblue: Lowepro Micro Trekker 200
:bulletblue: Hoya Digital Polarizer
:bulletblue: Hoya ND400
:bulletblue: Lee Filter Holder & Ring
:bulletblue: Lee ND Grad 0.6 Soft
:bulletblue: Lee ND Grad 0.9 Hard
:bulletblue: Manfrotto XPROB + 488RC2

I'm so excited with my recents aquisitions. I've so many possibilities opened now. What I like most is landscape photography but, with my new tripod, I want to try new things... I want to use more seriously my filters and I also want to try home studio photography.
Besides buying a new lens (don't know which one still) I'm may buy a remote cable and a grip... Didn't decide yet...


Feature :+fav:

:iconthefouro:

For the first time, I want to feature a photographer in my journal so I decide to start with *theFouro. Jarmo is one of the first deviants I started to watch here and as photographer I enjoy his evolution through time. He's very active in the DA Photography Forum and have post some news article that are very useful. He has great skills and I recommend you to watch is gallery. Go right now... But after, don't forget to come back to my gallery :D

No, it isn't... It's a song title from a symphonic black metal band called Anorexia Nervosa :)

Hola Luis,

Getting serious with the kit I see :o

I've finally bought the 50mm prime lens and I'm very happy with it.

How is the new tripod? Now you have that, you should think about the remote-release cable quite seriously. I've never been without one and it's a great way to add that extra crispness to tripod shots.

Keep taking the groovy pics sir.

:D
