Very nice thread... :thumbs:

I don't have a secondary camera to take a snap of the camera I am using.

I can dream of sujoy gifting me his hear when he upgrades to D7000 ;)

No, I don't have a cam in my mobile. It's a basic set... I'll figure out something and post a photo of my cam.

BTB, You have 50mm prime, then why do you need 55mm?

Its nikon 50mm 1.8 which is said to be the favorite lens for portrait...and I bought it for macro using reverse ring and extension tubes :D
only last month 1 used it for portraiture ;)

I bought nikon 55mm 2.8 micro lens coz using reverse ring and ET was too hectic...and I got this macro lens for very cheap

Shot this one with the help of mirror and edited...

I have no plan of upgrading to better camera in the near future. But I dream to have a nice and good pro camera.

Thought of buying a cheapo tripod, but after watching Kai's "funny" video I don't think I will buy one...

@nac r u a college guy or on job coz if u r in job then someday u r going to upgrade it...else if u r still a student then u have to wait untill u get good job :D

Cheap tripod may not be useful in all situations but defiantly u need them for long exposures ...soo get the cheapest tripod u find according to ur specs.

Even my tripod can carry just 3 kg and already my plans r big for next year (just the 300mm f4 will weight 1.2kg and D7000 will cost another 700gm )...but right now its adequate

Ta da !
My next purchase is going to be THIS

God knows when I will save up for it. Money isn't the issue..laziness is :D

Quick question : Is it a good choice?

^ Nope

It doesn't have IS. You can buy either Canon 55-250 for 12.5k or Tamron 70-300 VC for 27k. Pick the one which fits your budget.

Sujoy,
Yeah, I may need it but it's highly impossible in the near future. Even then, I think I would go for a used one. I don't have a heart to spend too much money on cameras. May be I will buy a new one when I am making tons and tons of money... :)

hmmm nac u have mind but no heart for camera gear :D :D

@trublu nac is right the best zoom lens in that range is canon 55-250 IS

Hmm.. thanks for this advice..even I was a little bit skeptical about getting this because of the non-IS thing, given the weight of a zoom lens. Neither of current lenses have IS. I have had to practise a lot to teach myself how to hold the camera still :( .

The reason why I initially chose the Sigma lens is because like nac, I have the heart but not the mind to spend much on camera gear :D
