Pothograpi

For some weird reason, I suddenly became interested in Photography (not the friendster type, but the sorta, kinda, pro type). Because of that, I started to look around and for most of my friends who are SOOOOOOOOOOOOO into it. They all say get a Canon EOS.

When Jay, Chezka's fiance, started, he got himself the 350D or the 400D. I forgot however, it was still an EOS and it took nothing but great photos.

Doi of The Doisterboy Experience started with an EOS (I think) and is now using a 35D? (I'm not sure, though). Turns out that the naming scheme of Canon is, the lesser the numbers, the "pro-er" it becomes. SO the hierarchy goes like this: XXXD>XXD>XD. Basta, gets nyo?

Anyway, everyday, I keep on going online to see when I can get the best deals possible. Jay says, the best place to buy a camera here is in Hidalgo. (A street in Manila known for it's camera "stuff") But before I decide to steal money off a bank and head off to Hidalgo, I decided to look onlin for possibly better deals and this is what I got.

Canon EOS 450D EF-S 18-55IS Kit (EUR$469.99 - Php29,448.81)
Canon EOS 450D 18-55mm IS + 55-250mm IS Twin Kit (EUR£649.99 - Php 40,727.32)
Canon EOS 450D (Camera Only) (HK$5,680.00 - Php 34,508.32)
Canon EOS 450D EF-S 18-55IS Kit (HK$6,480.00 - Php 39,368.65)
Canon EOS 450D EF-S 18-55IS Kit (US$799.99 - Php 37,680.28)

Bang for buck, the best place to get my dream camera is by getting it in the UK. Luckily I have a cousin who lives in London. I just wonder how much shipping is. Or how much additional luggage is if they are coming to Chezka's wedding. Same as the HJ and US prices.

Hmmmmmm....
