New addition – Canon EOS Rebel T3i
OK – Sooo .. Originally I was going to purchase the 20mm panny for my e-pl1 that I talked about here. That changed when I ran into a good deal for the Canon EOS Rebel T3i with a EF-S 18-55mm lens, a EF-S 55mm-250mm lens and a 8GB class 10 SD card with a nice sturdy and strong Canon bag. Couldn’t beat the deal I caught on this so I went ahead and pulled the trigger. First impression is – I love it! It has a very different feel to my e-pl1 that I'm very much like. I think because of the fact that I have such big hands, the e-pl1 sometimes feels like a toy in my hands: P .. The t3i just feels perfect in my hands.
Out of the box I took some pretty impressive shots in a very low light room. This was and is still a challenge with the e-pl1 and the kit lens. I plan to take some more shots, when I find a good subject and I'll post them up shortly – yes I know all I've been doing is making promises on pictures I'll be posting :(
I'm also thinking about getting a ef-s to m4/3 adapter so that I can use the lenses interchangeably.
I'm still very interested in that 20mm for my e-pl1, I'm hoping to make that the next purchase for sure this time. Eventually I'd like to get the Sigma 20mm 1.8 or the Sigma 24mm 1.8 for the Canon, but let’s see how comfy I can get with the kit lenses I have already :)
