Do some research on this forum there are few recommendations and there are other sites like
http://www.dpreview.com/

If you want one stop site for all the info and for various budgets and types of cameras

http://kenrockwell.com/

Again its best to learn basics of photography first and what exactly you want to shoot. Expensive cameras doesnt mean great photo - its the person behind the camera and skills that matter. Importantly budget is a factor whether its DSLR or point and shoot you want?

Others can chime in also

Cheers

@Prashanth ji,

Right!!! That's an Ibex. If I remember it right, it is Caucasian Tur. Not sure though, forgot the family.
I saw them in the Zoo in Munich, Germany. The horns were too captivating, so made a photo trophy for myself

Regards,
Ram

Daghestani Tur?
Heard it being called that by a Daghestani I met recently.
deserves a nice 7x64mm, on a classical 98 DSB Mauser action.

Caucasian Tur = Capra caucasica
Daghestan Tur = Capra cylindricornis

Deserves???

Wren and Martin, to rescue here too!!!!

Post by **eljefe** » Fri Jun 03, 2011 6:51 pm

Considering the territory they're found in, yup, would be a good choice, the 7 mil
Ok, a 800mm Tamron for those of us who want it that way? but will have a lot of mm short.
I am NOT going to correct that man-He is 6'6', built like a tank, and sells huuge knives for a living.
Wren& Martin?too sacrosant to use in more than 1 thread.

Dear Comrades,

After seeing the some beautiful pics posted by you, am encouraged to post a few clicks of mine shot from Sony Cybershot & Canon Xs 20D. Well I have clicked them on "Auto" mode

Havent had the patience yet to learn this form of shooting. Am nowhere daring to compare it with other experts here. Pls pardon me if it offends even the basics of photography

My recent trip to Gir clicked with Canon

ISCKON in Delhi

Sunrise in Gir Forest

It was in December & we could see the fog on the river in Gir

Pigeon

On our way back from Somnath to Gir. Spotted 3 jackals crossing the road & by the time I could grab the camera they disappeared

My visit to Kodaikanal

Not sure what bird it is - shot in Gir

Couldnt get a clear shot as my cousin disturbed its peace & it shyed away

Shot with Sony Cybershot in Khajiar

Not sure what bird it is

Sanjay Gandhi National Park

Wilderness...

Sea gulls shot in Dubai

After what our members have posted, these pics are as good as a 3 year old kid with a camera, but am equally enthusiastic of sharing it

Based on the feedback, will dare to post more pics. I do have better clicks, but they are not wildlife related.

Am now determined to attend Canon workshop to put my prosumer to good use & read the manual too

Cheers,
Rup

Best-
Vikram
