• The "Which camera is right for me?" thread V2 - Get a used Rebel
    1,690 replies, posted
Does anyone have an opinion on the Pentax K-x? I probably asked this in another version of this thread months ago, but forgot the responses I got. The reason I ask about it is because I have a lot of old Pentax (M42) screw mount lenses that I know I'd be able to use with an adapter. But if it's really not that great of a camera, I'll just keep those lenses for my film SLR.
its a good camera, the cheapest with video. only problem with it is that it uses AA batteries
0.25m on my canon
[QUOTE=Oicani Gonzales;30025905]What's the usual macro distance on 18-55 lenses?[/QUOTE] You can get cheap macro lenses for similar prices as 18-55mm kit lenses, if you're wanting that sort of thing.
Or you could hold up your lens backwards towards the camera :v: Not gonna guarantee any particularly sharp images though.
I think I'm going to save up, and then get a Sony A850. FULL'FUCKING'FRAME!

Yes, and a 300mm Should I sell my junk, and go get a canon? [editline]24th May 2011[/editline] The 5d II is like 350 pounds more

Just a cheap sigma 70-300 f5.6 I doubt that I'll be able to sell any of my gear, though. [editline]24th May 2011[/editline] Plus, I wouldn't have any money left to buy a lens.
sell it to a mate and show them your best photos
Do the Sony full frames even do video or micro adjustment. Get a 5D, 7D or 60D if your looking at semi-pro bodies.
[QUOTE=cueballv2themax;30028254]sell it to a mate and show them your best photos[/QUOTE] I might be able to do this, actually. [editline]24th May 2011[/editline] I'll give this some thought. I might end up going with a 7D or a 60D. The 5D II is out of reach.

I would be happy with the thread title if it was anyone but cueball who wrote it :v:
[QUOTE=Roll_Program;30026362]You can get cheap macro lenses for similar prices as 18-55mm kit lenses, if you're wanting that sort of thing.[/QUOTE] Really? A macro lens for £70-140? Where??
[QUOTE=Xera;30032826]Really? A macro lens for £70-140? Where??[/QUOTE] I was thinking the Sigma 70-300mm or 50mm f/2.8 macro lenses. Both similar costs.
[QUOTE=Roll_Program;30033185]I was thinking the Sigma 70-300mm or 50mm f/2.8 macro lenses. Both similar costs.[/QUOTE] The 50mm f/2.8 is way more expensive than any kit lens I've seen.

[QUOTE=Roll_Program;30031372]I would be happy with the thread title if it was anyone but cueball who wrote it :v:[/QUOTE] it's because when anybody comes in here and asks for any camera people say "save your money and get a used rebel"
I don't know whether to rate dumb or disagree (not in a harsh way :v:)
Get a room you too. It's starting to look like those movies where two people hate each others guts, but end up having lots of sexytime

[QUOTE=cueballv2themax;30048113]so do i but i don't want to find out[/QUOTE] we all know you do
Can we refrain from the homosexuality and re-enter the world of photography please?
