So I finally got my hands on an SLR (thanks Simone) it might be a nikon but it'll do ;)

(I prefer Pentax or Canon.. I'm actually lobbying Kyle to let me get a Canon EOS 5D MARk ii but considering the price it might be a while..)

Maybe just a 5D would be nice?.. maybe anything?.. haha

These have not been photoshopped ( I don't have photoshop either ) :(

iso 100 - I like using a slow iso for close ups to help cut out extra information, plus its fun to practice with movement.

When I use my pentax I love love using the slower films, the black and white can really make the movement seem surreal.

the above photo has a slow shutter speed to take advantage of the natural light in the room.. I'm quite happy with this one. iso 400

then I went the other way & tried a darker feel to match the couch..

iso 800 for the wriggly boy.

more to come when little boy is happy again ;)

p.s:

it has been over over 12 months since my Pentax was last used so a little slack would be nice if I put in the aperture/shutter speed or ISO in the wrong way around.
