Awesome pics, I'll have to make sure to know where you're at next year FDseoul, so I can drive by you a bunch of times :) I can't believe I didn't stop and take more pics while I was there, fantastic scenery.

WOW! I love some of those shots, Im convinced, I'm getting a better camera for next year!

Me too, I borrowed a Cannon Digital Rebel Xt from work, but I really want one of the Nikons with the built-in stabilizer for myself.... someday :)

i have one w/ a built in stabilizer...

it's OK. definitely helps, but it takes away from the image clarity i think. i've noticed that lens w/ the built in stabilizer tend to be very slightly less "crisp" on hard edges. just my experience. :001_005:

Do you prefer the Nikon or Cannon? I've been leaning towards the D80 because of the built-n stabilizer, making extra lenses cheaper rather than buying lenses with stabilizer built in. Is the whole stabilizer thing not worth it? I don't really know much about cameras, I just want to pick a good one and add lenses as needed to play with :) I'm still very amateur and trying to learn tips from the internet and magazines as I go.

As mentioned both Cannon and Nikon are great cameras. If you plan on shooting still/static objects any of the DX dslr will do. The pictures will always have a better look when you spend the money on the lenses.

If you plan on shooting motions shots make sure you get a camera frame that shoots the highest number of frames per second matched with a fast lens.

Phil was kind enough to lend me his Nikon D90 for the event, what a great camera and once again depending on your subject matter any camera will do.
