Photography part 4 : Entering the world of photography

Few of my friends i know who can draw pretty well eventually enter the world of photography, finally myself too. I guess it's pretty much because composing a picture by photography is way much easier than drawing.. hmm

After years of pushing my camera to limit, finally there is one day i was so inspired to get one after realizing that the amount of money will worth the investment, and was so obsessed with online camera reviews. With rounds of reviews and hands on to finally came up with a decision, i chose the canon 600d over 550d, 1000d, d3200 and d3100. Since i've used Canon all the while, i am sticking with canon =)
Canon 600d for RM 1.8k (July 2013)

I choose it because it is the cheapest DSLR with a tilty-flippy-screen, as described by Kai from DigitalRev, best for recording function ( which i believe i will do a lot recordings ) Canon 1000d and 550d is cheaper but 1000d is plastic-ky while 550d is a bit older. This DSLR came with 18-55mm IS2 lens, suprisingly it does creates bokeh effect easily compared to my previous cam, but something is still missing... yes the bokeh i always wanted!

Just within a week, after few research, found out canon has the cheapest 50mm lens, and got the 50mm f1.8 lens at the same shop, but diff branch for RM290. Thus, my DSLR is ready =D

High speed action without boosting ISO to the max, only possible with f1.8 50mm 

Portrait Bokeh, but need to stand quite far
The key is timing! could be better if from another angle, and picture itself is enough to tell a story

As for now, i am still learning photography and hope to produce more memorable shots for time to come. As for me, my photography aim is still the same since the first time i enter, to capture all the moments in shots that could tell a better story and far more better than what they can remember, which is, the power of photos.
