Indians For Guns

Hello Guy's.

All of you know anytime I post something I always post about guns but I don’t think any of you know that I do have another hobby.

The other hobby I had is taking a picture from my camera. Today I bought a new toy for myself. Its Nikon model D3000.I did not try this yet but very soon all of you guy’s going to see a pictures from this camera.I am going to getting more lens for this camera as well.

Here are some pictures for all of you.

Nice Pa'aji. What kind of photogrpahy do you do generally. Outdoor, tabletop or wildlife. Share some good pics here start with your delicious collection of 1911's.

Hi bhai Congrats on your new buy.For How much you got this?.Any combo lens kit with the pack?.Make sure you have a 50mm prime lens by that you can shoot Sharp image with blurred background.I prefer a prime lens first than a telescopic lens.Just my humble opinion.

Very nice camera, Baljit. I have been planning to get a D-SLR for sometime. My present camera takes good photos but time to upgrade. Enjoy your new possession and treat us to some nice photographs.

Congrats, Nice camera Baljit. Any reason you went went with Nikon & not Canon. Does it have video capability HD 1080 or 720?

You can get a fast lens like a 50mm 1.4 or 1.8 at at an affordable price, between the kit lens 18-55, a 50mm and a 70-300 you should have all your needs covered.

I like Nikons DSLR Cameras own a D 90. Important thing is to invest in nice lens as Herb pointed and learn to use it and experiment.Pain hauling it but pictures are worth it.

I like cannon's point and shoot. There are many websites out there on recommendations and advise try this http://www.kenrockwell.com/

Nice camara Baljit,
I am planning to change to a Nikon soon. Do post the results.

Congrats sir for NIKON D3000. nice to know about your photography hobby.
IMO 50mm f1.8 will be better for low light photography, Table top photography and Portraiture.
and 80-400mm f/4.5-5.6D ED VR AF for wild life and birding photography.

One common thing i observed in persons having common hobby as shooting and photography is their vision. I can say that all of them must have LIONS HEART and EAGLES EYE just like you.

Thanks’ guys.

Moin..... I surely do outdoors and wildlife photography, this is the only reason for this camera. Very soon I am going to start new third in photo album under "Natural Beauty in British Columbia”, starting from my home town Kelowna and try to cover other city as well.

renjith747.......Yes I got the combo lens kit with the pack but still buying more lens for this camera.

Vikram...... I am thinking to upgrade my camera from quite some time and now that times come. Very soon all of you guy's going to see lots of pictures.

herb....No I do not have any reasons for Nikon. My uncle has a Nikon and he is very happy with it. It’s comes with 200+ pages manual book and I did not go through the book yet but I know its take 3D pictures. The lens comes with this package is AF 18-55mm 1:3.5-5.6 G II ED but still buying batter ones.

ngrewal.....Thank you very much for the link.

TC.....Thank you very much.

aftabkhan.... Thank you very much for the info. I will keep this in my mind when I am going to buy other lens.

I was hoping to see a bazooka

Happy shooting (with the camera) Baljit.

A good buy, Baljit.
We hope to see more photo essays from you in the future.

Keep shooting, paaji. With all kinds of "shooters"!

As the guys said above, just like guns, you'll find yourself adding new bells & whistles to this shooter, too!

Baljit,

For an all purpose lens,probably nothing will beat this.

You can get this to go with your camera.A step up above the inbuilt flash and will not drain the camera battery

Do get a good tripod.You do not need a big heavy pro tripod.Something like this would serve you well

Congrats Baljit, this is a great choice.

The standard kit lens is very sharp and will meet a lot of your requirements. The lens WTP has recommended will meet most of your requirements and is what I have been wanting to get for a very long time for my D40.

I only have 2 more recommendations: if you plan on doing a lot of night time photography with shutter speeds that run into a few seconds do make the small investment in a remote 'trigger' I've certainly found it useful for my shaky hands.
Always fight the tempatation to use it on preset or auto modes- Go manual!

Happy shooting!

Cheers,
