Well, I hope it works out to be a good choice. I decided not to worry too much about limitations in whichever camera I went for at this stage. I will have my hands full enough getting to grips with learning what DSLRs are generally capable of for now, and I'm sure anything I could have bought at entry level would have had something it wouldn't be the best at. I actually don't think it will get a great amount of use this year, as I have two house moves to deal with - one next week, and then the big one in maybe a couple of month's time.
But once I'm up north, hill fever will be the first affliction to get a hold, with or without a camera! Early starts and late evenings are already very much on my mind, and I'm desperately hoping I can still carry the pack & tent up there for a couple of days at a time; already thinking about carbon fibre tripods :lol And there are already a couple of places I'm familiar with in the Lake District where I'm thinking, where will the sun be at such and such a time of day, at such and such a time of year? :rollin
Will have to decide what photo software to go for next :rolleyes
Still got a lot of reading to do, to better understand how to use the thing, so I'll immerse myself in that, and some experimental shots for the time being.
Kosmic, I'm not even going to ask you about "AF assist being in the flash" :lol
