Hello all, My name is Matt, I am from the Republic of China(Taiwan) but now I live in the Birth Place of Aviation, Ohio(I think its kind of ironic thees no major airports here even though aviation was born here). To start off, I am about 13 years old going on 14, and I just got into Photography this past summer. I may be a bit young but trust me, I am eager to learn. I currently own a D70S which is a hand-me-down from my dad, as well as my blackberry, and ipod nano. It is a really old camera. My dad bought it at around 2006 and 2007. My dad took care of it real well though, so when i saw it for the first time I thought it was a brand new camera. Anyways, the reason I got into photography was my love for aviation. and that means I go out and interact. I love planes and I know(mostly) everything about it(except for physics, its just too boring!). One of my favorite hobbies is to go out plane-spotting. But since I dont have a good camera(I didn't know of my Dad's D70S until last week when he brought it home) It was a really hard goal to achieve. So i pestered my parents about getting me a new camera for Christmas and a new lens to go with it for my birthday(which is about 2 weeks from Christmas). But since I have the D70S now(and it gets the job done real well), I started to pester my parents for a new lens. So to sum it up, basicly my interest in aviation led to other interests, and now I am eager to learn as much as I can about Nikon cameras, or just photo shooting in general. So that, is my paragraph of how I got into photography.
As of now, I am looking at the Nikon 55-300mm f/4.5-5.6G ED VR AF-S DX Nikkor Zoom Lens for Nikon Digital SLR
[h=1]Amazon.com: Nikon 55-300mm f/4.5-5.6G ED VR AF-S DX Nikkor Zoom Lens for Nikon Digital SLR: Camera & Photo[/h] I am using this lens for mostly planespotting and capturing special church activities and such. So any suggestions or comments?
Thnx, I really plan to learn alot from this forums, and it seems like it has a partnership with amazon, so thats a plus =]
