Mama - razzi


We did it. In the name of "family Christmas present" and via a great deal on Amazon, we got our digital SLR -- a Canon Digital Rebel XT. It is sooooooooo lovely. Of course, I have absolutely no idea how to use it. Okay, all you photographers out there (professional and amateur alike), got any ideas for me? Or at least any good websites/help books/super photographer mentors?
I've been playing around with the autofocus features and have gotten a good start, I think. However I've been home and awake for like 6 hours only every other day this week so I haven't really had time to play much or post the pics. Please someone help!

  3. Yeah..that is the same camera I have...love it!!! I took a couple of classes and a good beginner portrait lens is the 1.8 fixed 50mm... perfect for all your kid shots! I'm so excited for you.
