I know Chase Jarvis uses an iPhone - not exclusively though.

Even the 2mp iphone takes a surprisingly good pic in natural light.

Whats the new 3mp like, has it improved the quality by much?

I'm looking to buy my first SLR camera and have two in mind at the minute

Which would be better or are there other models I should consider ?

Went for a cycle with the camera earlier this week, first time I've taken shots with it for a while, quite happy with these ones out of around 200 shots I took.

The 450's a better camera than the 1000D. You should be able to get it cheaper than that though. There's also the newer 500D, which is about £100 more than that. They're all great camera tbh, you can't really go too far wrong with any choice these days.

Rossco, the seventh shots really nice. The first and last ones are well lit etc, but they're crying out for a subject.

Loving your work Rossco!

Some pics from our recent camping holiday in Cornwall (sorry no tent pics tentfans!)



Wifey (pregnant ):



Love this pic:



Freaky piano playing itself:



Mr Penguin:



This is my stick. There are many like it, but this one is mine:



Cock



He see's you:



Can you see her though?





Quite chuffed with this conversion actually:





I think that's enough for now, some more here though if you haven't got bored yet!

I don't think people post their best pictures first by accident. Dan, that creepy little statue is interesting, and Spatial, that landscape shot is pretty stunning.

Some great stuff in here last few posts..

Rossco - love your 6th one - the minimalist landscape with all that grass - cracking !

Dan - looks like you had a great holiday. Agree, there's something about that first shot - has an atmosphere about it. Also like the decrepit old house with the door in the wall (WTF), and the B&W alley - good stuff.

Spatial - Wow at the first one - awesome stuff..

One from a WWII event that we stumbled upon yesterday while taking my boys out to a park. Looks a bit better large.

Just Enough Essential Parts

Some nice shots over the last couple of pages - perhaps some of you chaps should submit your pics to for the gallery section of Amateur Photographer, you might end up featuring in the magazine. They've just started accepting submissions via e-mail, details on the link below.

Cheers for the tip Marty, just submitted a few to see what they say.. (probably "No Thanks" )

A couple from my son's sports day earlier..

Going with Dan's "cock" theme, who wants to see a picture of a giant cock?

Some photos from a lovely sunny evening down Mumbles last night.

I particularly like that first one Herbalizer.
