Preface

This blog is where I will host my own personal photo exhibitions.

The Gear:
- Nikon D50 D-SLR - from www.buydig.com
- Nikon AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor 18 - 55mm f/3.5 - 5.6G ED - from www.buydig.com
- Nikon AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor 55-200mm f/4-5.6G ED - from www.buydig.com
- Filters - MC-UV Haze, Circular Polarizer, ND grad 0.9, Close-up filters (1,2,4) - Wolf camera has the Tiffen filters on clearance and most of the filters are under 5$ each. I am not kidding. The closeup filters are not very sharp, but the serve the purpose.
- Tripod ( Manfrotto 3001BN with a Giotto Ball Head - Used. The new ones are really expensive ). The weight is under 4.5 pouds. Not the lightest but not cumbersome either.
- Besseler S920 Sedona back pack. Has room for 3 lenses, flash and filters along with a medium format SLR body. There is a top compartment big enuf to fit your lunch box.:) - www.bhphotovideo.com
- Lens pen - I strongly suggest every camera user to buy this. It is as low as 5$.

The stuff I have, although looks expensive, is really not that bad. I was able to muster up all my accesories for under 125$. Tripod was a steal as I was able to get my hands on a good used one.

My interests mainly are Nature/Landscape photography. I will not be investing on any more lenses and accesories for the D-50, as I feel this will suffice for now. Once I get really serious and confident, I plan to go for a D-200 with a 18-200 VR and probably a 200-400 (Yeah..dream on).Feel free to criticize and comment on the photos.

May all your wishes come true!!
