RE: Dunstanburgh Castle IR shots (free for you to use in your own posts)
Nice work. Can I ask what camera and lens you used in this post?

Yes I forgot to add that. For the Infra Red it was a Canon EOS 450D (Digital Rebel in the US I think is the name) and it was the Canon EF 50mm/1.8 II Lens. For the normal shots it was my old Nikon D7000 with the Nikon 18.0-55mm /3.5-5.6 kit lens.
Nice work. I have the eos 50mm f1.8 lens myself, though mine's the older version. It's a good lens, small, light, fast enough, and sharp (and cheap!)
I'm looking at buying into Fujifilm's mirrorless system right now though, mainly because it's lighter and smaller than a DSLR (plus my trusty old eos 350d recently died).
In the end it only counts for what you point the lens at though, and having good light of course.
I think the old version is just as good. For the price you can't go wrong. Some of those mirrorless cameras do look pretty good. Does the Fuji use changeable lenses - I think the main issue I have seen is that those chic little cameras actually work out more than a top end DSLR when you take lenses into account sometimes. Also if you use standard Nikon/Canon you can buy lots of great used lenses pretty cheap. That's why I haven't taken the dip myself. If I was rich I would just buy a Leica lol for portability.
