So i need a new tripod...
I'm sick of this cheapass thing that i found on the attic, and scared that it will fall over and break my camera and/or lens.

Head: I'm not looking for a ball-head but one that i can pan and tilt. And a bubble level thingy in it for horizontal and vertical measurement (this really is a must)
Tripod: I'm about 180cm (6ft) tall...
Price: as cheap as possible, with these requirements in mind.

I suck at choices help me out :P


in return: one of the portraits for a school assignment a week ago... (feedback on pic are also welcome)

Hey /p/, is this camera good for someone who doesn't have a camera and could use a simple one to start out with? http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp;jsessionid=UMJBSJNFVGNTJKC4D3FFAFY?skuId=8739966&st=cano

/p/hoto thread time. I finally had some time to go out and take pictures, here's a selection of that day. Criticism is welcome. (Why else would I post?)

This is a picture of a flower and a bee. I'd like to know what /p/ thinks of it. Constructive comments, positive or negative, would be nice.

I already know I'm probably going to take some shit for the flower getting cut off on the bottom. I fucked that all up.

so i was just wondering what's the longest lens in the so pedestrian aperture categories?

like what's the longest f/1.2 lens?
f/1.4?
f/1.8? i think it's the Canon 200mm f/1.8
f/2.0

Time for some fun. OK so image macros are not allowed. But I am sure you can post something you took along with a dumb line to match?

To Inifiniti and beyond!

Thoughts?

Sup guys. Looking for a camera recommendation. My interests are airshows (planes in flight), general urban landscapes, and astronomy.

What would be the minimal amount needed and the model of a camera that'd be adequate for those?
