i just recently bought a camera, its a canon rebel T2, its nothing special or anything, i didnt want to spend all my money on a camera, so i thought this was suitable enough for a beginner, ive always liked cameras and taking pictures but i havent had a job till now, i am 17 now and i have my first job, and the first thing i got was the camera. hhhmmmm, so thats my life story!! but the reason for me posting this is that i want tips on using the camera, and just things that will help me, thanks. oh, and the reason why i bought a 35mm SLR in this age of digitalization(????) is because im not really into digital cameras and for some reason i just prefer SLR's and the use of good old film. dont get me wrong, i still appreciate something that has been enhanced in any way, but i just prefer the original shot. but anyway, please reply. thanks
