I use it everyday for work....Be very careful with pressing on the lense tube... teh inner workings of it have broken twice already. That being said it takes great pics and one of the best out, wish I got one for free

what is it you do for a living mush?

im not a pro photographer or anything, but im really starting to get into it.. can your recomend any good Accessories for it..

i saw some extra lenses and flashes you can put on it.. but im not sure what they do..

wish I got one for free

pay close attention in September, by the end of the season, your book will buy you one also


good luck

I do virtual tours for realestate companies. I dont think there is anything you really need for it. If you are going to take alot of pics I reccomend paintshop or some other editing software. I have a wide angle lense for it which makes the a big difference for what I do but its not really needed for regular pics.

There are alot of cool things you can do with it so if you have any questions let me know

Enjoy

and if you decide to upgrade and get a wide angle lense you will need a external flash because the wide angle lense will partly block the flash on the camera and you wont get a get pic

Basically it adds additional zoom and quality to the photo. Did you click the Tiger pic on the first listing you have here from ebay. that is exactly what you will add. The first pic is what your camera can do now but when you add the lense thats what you can get.

I have lense attachments myself and they make all the difference in what you can get in a pic. Personnally I like the first lense better than the second but both will do.

Anything else let me know.

When I said first one I meant the first auction you posted. I have that brand but different lense. The second auction is good to dont get me wrong but it comes with alot of extra equipment that you may not need. Im not sure what your plans are for this camera.

The third auction you posted. I havent heard much about that lense but you can do a search on yahoo for camera lense and you should be able to find a review of it. It is alot stronger (gets your closer) than the other 2.

Hope that helps
