  1. Hi Peter. Hope your good. I,ve only had a camera for 2 1/2 maybe 3 years it was a canon eos 1000d with a standard zoom lens that got me interested, after 6 months I was so hooked I spent £500 on a 2nd hand camera body which was much more suited to wildlife and the elements. But its not the camera that gets the shots its the lens and your knowledge of the subjects your interested in. I subscribe to 2 photography mags. Outdoor photography and photoplus which is a Canon specific magazine. I found them invaluable. Ste

  3. Got a battery grip for the 50d. Only have a few lenses though a fab 70 - 200 f 2.8L is usm mk 2 with a 2x converter plus a 17 - 40L series wide angle I also have a proper baby Canon 1000d with a 18 - 55 kit lens Ste
