Yeah, I've already got it. Rebel T4i. So everything is building from there.
Since it isn't a primary hobby, I'm not looking to change ships right now so good or bad, it's what I'm working with.
Or not, because I aint' got time for that.

Yeah, me too. But because I've been intimidated with getting a second lens. It's all foreign right now and I haven't the time to jump in and start figuring things out. I tend to get all obsessive about things and just can't afford to do that with photography right now.
I'll check out some 50/1.8s though. Sounds like a good next step.

Is that a 50mm in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?

50mm 1.8 canon for 100 bucks is a great first prime lens.
then you can jump to something like a 17-55 for a great workhorse lens (that will fit full frame cameras). Stick with EF yes. THe EF-S lens i have is the 10-22. If I ever go full frame, I'll sell it and get a 8-15 or something..

I have no fucking clue what you guys are talking about.
I'm about to give all you my 25mm right away, in 1.6seconds.

13 seconds if I wrap an elastic band around the base of the shaft, and another around the ball sack.

Majofo,the 16mm 2.8 pancake lens is a good cheap lens.
It's equivalent to 24mm on a full frame camera.
I use it a lot with my Nex-6 (generation before a6000)

Well I normally have to tuck my balls in the condom anyway, otherwise it just falls off. I swear, it's like condoms are made for giants, or something.

Light colors?
Dark usually absorbs the energy better and will cut. Light needs moar powa.

So I'm fairly new here, and have a question about my TL-S. Everytime I try to get in/out of the car, the damn door closes back on my leg. Is there a part known to go bad over time that will cause this, or is it something just have to get familiar with?
