LOL. no probs with the link :)
Just wanted to know if I am missing something and being stupid :)
OK now, comments welcome and give me some ideas about walkaround photography.
I am poor at that.
Byw, did you just follow me on flickr? I would like to follow a few forum members and learn from them.

thanks. know it's not rocket science but sometimes u do miss simple things :)
I do not still get the BB code as mentioned in your post above.
Guess, my brain is really not working well today.
Also, when I attach a photo from my laptop, can't it be shown directly on the post?
Took some random shots inside the house with my new Tamron 17-50 VC lens on Canon 600D.
Most of the shots are dimly lit . ISO -800, F2.8, shutter speed 1/30 or so.The VC definitely helps.
How do I add photos here from flickr?

Guyz, I am okay with the technical aspects but poor from a creative aspect.
So I will need some inputs from you for everyday photography.
Will be posting some pics in the photography thread shortly.
I just ended up buying the lens which I discarded - Tamron 17-50 VC :)
Sparingly used one - with marumi UV filter and lens hood @22K.
I spent more than 1 hour in the shop with 3 lenses
Sigma 17-50 OS
Tamron 17-50 Non VC
Tamron 17-50 VC
The Sigma was out as the autofocussing was incorrect most...
nac - I do understand that.
I am hoping I will be able to buy something decent within 3-4K.
Or, is that not possible.
What's the minimum I need to spend to get a decent and safe tripod?
Please suggest.
As I said, I will have my Canon 600D + tamron 17-50. I don't think I will have more than...
I am thinking about following tripods -
Benro 600/660/800/880.
Vanguard 203AP, 203AGH.
I do not plan to buy a full frame camera any time soon.
My heaviest lens would be something like what I am considering now, max 500-700 gms.
So, all these have weight bearing rating of 3KG.
So, I should be...
I saw his review and he is recommending the Sigma 17-50 OS HSM lens.
In fact, everyone is recommending that one even above the more costly Canon 17-55 F2.8.
Only thing is that when I tested it, the autofocus was not great.
So, I am confused.

Thanks all..
I guess the faster lens has a big advantage in case we are shooting moving objects like people.
But when objects are stationary, the IS lens with a smaller aperture can match the faster lens.
Obviously, having both gives you lot more flexibility.
That's why, I was interested in...
Thanks Sujoy.. I guess you don't smoke and have steady hands. :)
I am not so sure about myself.
Till what shutter speed you can go with the Tamron and still get sharp pics?
Do you find any problems with autofocus?
I understand that it's noisy but is it fast and accurate?
Can you post some...
Hi All,
I have been dormant in this forum for a long time.
I have a Canon 600D and I am looking for a substitute for my kit lens.
Can you please help me decide between the following lenses -
1> Tamron 17-50 2.8 Non VC - new 23K, used 15K
2> Tamron 17-50 2.8 VC - new 33K, used 22K
3> Sigma...
Thanks Sujoy.
Regarding borders for the photograph along with timestamp and signature, what are the easiest tools to use?
Something free which I can use?
^^ sujoy, thanks.
I got the focussing part.
About the cut out, I am assuming it will be just the border which needs to be cut out in the desired shape leaving the gap in the middle. Sorry if it sounds dump.
Few more questions - what is the easiest way to get borders around your photo? Any good...
^ Thanks Sujoy.
In the first pic, did you actually put out a heart-shaped cardboard to get that effect?
I am wondering what determines the shape of the lights in the background.
I am little confused about the following statement - :"move it forward back manually" .. what does it mean?
Thanks Pranav. I know bokeh and I have got shallow DOF with the f/1.8 lens in particular with my canon 600D.
The question is - how to get the CIRCULAR lights in the background as shown in the pic. Does it depend on the light source?
I will try it out anyways but looking for suggestions.
thanks everyone for your feedback.
I was just experimenting with my new canon 600D.
@pranav - buddy, thanks a lot. I will try a few flower shots this weekend and upload here. Will try out the technique you mentioned. What do you mean by straightening - "use picasa to straighten the image a...
Some of my first shots - still learning.
Need some suggestions on how to improve.
Can someone tell me how to display the images in the body of the message rather than attachments?
can anyone tell me how to take HDR pics if the feature is not built in camera?
My Canon 600D does not have it.
But I find it essential when the background is very bright or backlit.
What I understand is I can use auto exposure bracketing to take the same shots in different exposures.
But, how...
