i quiet fancy getting into a bit of photography myself as a hobby,however i am going to take my time and research it before i buy any equipment as i tend to get into something full on,spend a load of money,get impatient if i see no results quickly,and move on to something else.as an example ,i love my house music so over 3 years built up a home studio spent between twenty to thirty grand on equipment and wait for it ,never ever completed one song lol[i still have the gear just awaiting some devine intervention.
best of luck jimbo with your new toy.
