Well I purchased my wife a camcorder :thumb: that is her Christmas gift, now I've been comparing camcorders for a wile now and as some of may know I'm a big Sony fan and well after lots of research I found this one to be the best camcorder out in the market..well for what I'll be using it for. You know filming home events, piano residols, church events..ect..ect..oh and some vehicle detailing :whistle: but enough chit chat time for some pictures :chest: Oh and the wife purchased a little something for me too :thumb: This is the wife's gift :headbang: Now this thing has wicked features but what I love the most is it's high picture quality, leaves the Sony camcorder I was looking at eating it's dust...oh and about $200 cheaper too :thumb: Now this is my gift, yup :nod: Cannon XTi Rebel Wife purchased a package that came with both lenses...how did she know :whistle: This is the second lense it came with too UV filters something about protecting the lense sounds like a good idea to me Oh and bag to cary both the camcorder and my new cameral Oh cant forget the memory card :thumb: Well I'm pleased with my gift and wife is very pleased with her gift...now you guys may understand why I've been asking so many question about taking pictures :hippie: Hopefully picture quality will improve so no more excuses "I couldn't get a picture of the imperfections on the vehicle" lol. Well just thought I'd share that's all.
I'm loving it already :wicked: but I got lots to learn hense all the questions I've been asking lol...but the way I see it I got my entire life to perfect the skills and with your help I'm sure I'll learn a trick or two :chest:

Nice gifts Carlos But it isen`t christmas yet??? Are you cheating? haha. I bet you wanted to have it ready for filming and picture taking ? Can`t wait to see your pictures in the future
Man nice gifts!! My gf gave me two gifts can't wait to open them Looking foward to seeing some nice pictures
Carlos, congrats! I am excited for you, you got a great selection of camera equipmen to start off with! The XTi is EXCELLENT and with an extra lens and some filters, bag, etc. you have a solid foundation to start a new hobby! Just be careful: it's just as addictive as detailing but a whole lot more expensive, hah!
Thank you guys, yes they are both great gifts and pirex we kinda cheated too :whistle: well our little princess had a church play to do (it was actually on Saturday December 22 ) the wife and I were going to wrap them up but figuired why not start putting them to good use :chest: :chest: Hey do you guys want to see the video of the baby Jesus play? Oh it's a bit shaky as I didn't use the tri pod but if you guys want to see it I can load it for you gys. Well seeing as it's Christmas and all it goes with the season P1et - Yes, my wife ended up getting a really nice package for the Rebel. Man it's a gorgeous camera some wicked features...I spent a few hours going through the manual and other tutorials and I can't wait to get my feet wet on it's features...also with the tips that you and Scott are providing I'm sure I'll improve my pictures. Lots to learn though, lots....but no biggie I got the rest of my self to perfect my picture taing skills and with friends like you guys to help me alon the way what more can I ask for :hug: I can't wait to build up some skills on the camera, no more blurry pictures or out of focus pictures just nice crisp pictures :woo: :woo: jus the thought gets me pumped :chest: :chest: Oh and yes I can see how this new hoby can get expensive..I'm aleady looking at getting another lense :shakehead: :shakehead: :shakehead:
