My First DSLR



I am a complete DSLR virgin.  Sure, I once put my finger on the button and opened and closed the shutter of a friends DSLR –but it’s not the same thing.  After feeling the power and force of the DSLR, I have spent the last year pining away for one of my own.  At, this point you are probably expecting me to say that I bought a basic DSLR with a kit lens, right?  This, on its own, would give the power and force but not the quality I am looking for.  Instead, I bought the Canon EOS-7D with the EF 70-300 f/4-5.6 IS USM lens.  I have a very long list of lenses that I am yearning for, but for now, this will have to do.  As I said before, I am a complete DSLR virgin, so I will have to teach myself everything.  This blog is going to follow my learning process, starting from the first shot.
