EDIT: Before DSLR it was Nokia N95 ... As an example of photos taken by my Pentax K-7 with Pentax-DA 18-55mm AL WR basic lens I pinned here photo I presented yesterday. I do not use any othet accesories (flash, tripod,...) because I don't have them yet (not enough money) Edited June 5, 2011 by Miloslav Macháček Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North West Neps Posted November 10, 2013 Report Share Posted November 10, 2013 I've got a Nikon D3000. Even though it's hardly a pro camera, it's the most expensive (and by far the best) i've ever owned. I'm happy with the results i get doing outdoor and scenic photography, although i haven't really bothered with CP photography until i get an extension tube. A macro lens is out of the question for my budget, so could anyone please tell me if these would do the job for close-up plant phtography..... http://www.ebay.co.u...L-/221119941276 If not, what would be better ?

fnglazz Posted April 12, 2014 Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 @dreamfalcon - sorry for the late reply, but wow those shots are incredible!! I either use my Nikon D5100 or the camera on my Sony Xperia SP to take photos. The Nikon has the highest resolution for the more crisper images, and of course the depth of field can be change to achieve those more professional looking shots (people compliment me on my photos, and while I appreciate their kind words, I still think that having a DSLR makes good photography a lot easier). I use the Xperia when I don't have my Nikon on me, as well as when I want to take more vivid photos. The Nikon allows for shots like this: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Bkc-9YOCEAA4RAx.jpg But I tend to find that the Xperia can sometimes catch light better, such as this photo of the afternoon sunset, comparing both cameras: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Bj2coNmCEAAnKXs.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Tonnerre Posted May 3, 2014 Report Share Posted May 3, 2014 Canon 6D and 24-70mm f4 L IS USM with macro function.Its a really great combo for in situ pictures, as i can geotag thanks to Canon 6Ds GPS, and the 24-70mm lens lets me get some overview shots at 24mm and some closeups with the macrofunction at 70mm. It is quite challenging though, as its near impossible not to block the light at such a close focusing distance.Looking forward to posting some great shots!
