I use a Canon EOS 5D, F/4L 17-40mm, F/1.4 50mm, 430EX, Hoya filters. All that gear is super awesome, but is not required to make good photos. Never forget that the most important aspect to any photograph is the eye behind it.VG Photo!http://www.blogger.com/profile/09618727948974139337noreply@blogger.comBlogger18125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6334146282151493911.post-61827650398241141912009-11-19T19:59:00.000-08:002009-11-19T20:01:17.448-08:00Great Deals on Canon EOS Digital SLR gear (film gear too) on Amazon!Wee!

<br />
<br />Those are the only two Nikon bodies I'd absolutely recommend. For Canon it'd have to be the Rebel XS/XSi and 5D2. I don't see the point of the other bodies. I go full frame for its sharpness, low-light performance and use of wide-angle lenses.
<br />
<br />Here are my recommended Canon lenses:
<br />
<br /><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00007E7JU?ie=UTF8&tag=httpvgphotobl-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B00007E7JU">Amazon.com, Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 Mark II $95 (The EF 50mm 1.8II is a super awesome lens, incredibly sharp.)</a>

<br />
<br /><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00009R6WO?ie=UTF8&tag=httpvgphotobl-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B00009R6WO">Amazon.com, Canon EF 17-40 F/4L </a> (I can't say enough good things about this lens) Extremely sharp and beats or equals the performance of Canon's wide primes. You can't beat this lens for the money.

It's extremely well-made, super sharp, even at F/4, great sharpness all throughout the frame (except maybe the extreme corners at large apertures) Stopped down to about f/8 gets you great sharpness and f/11 it's at its best. I even used it as a portrait lens with fantastic results.

I'll start posting some photos as soon as I can. I enjoy photography as a hobby and hope to improve my skills with every picture I take. I've been taking pictures since I was a kid. It's a lot of fun! Photography is an art, it should be whatever you want it to be. Enjoy.</span>VG Photo!http://www.blogger.com/profile/09618727948974139337noreply@blogger.com0
