Canon 10D

Recently I decided to delve into the world of professional high-quality photography. My inspiration comes from various other artists I've followed throughout the years. Also, it'd be nice to get some really nice shots when I'm in Korea.

So, first things first I bought a new gently used digital SLR, specifically a Canon 10D. Amazon has some amazing deals right now on these. I was able to steal this camera at something like 50% off the market price. It arrived yesterday, taking a mere 3 days to get here - awesome.

The best part about this whole scenario is that my dad has an old canon film SLR which is accompanied by three really nice lenses. These all being bought in the mid 80's [sick]. The problem is these lenses don't usually fit on the new Digital EOS Canons like the 10D. So I scoured the Internet, and not too long after found an adapter that will affix the old Canon FD lenses to the newer EOS bodies. The end result...
