Day Fifteen: Happiness Is....




On Day 5 I used a picture of my ribbons. I had had a Canon 40D for 3 days, but it needed to be returned because it was not working. I made a comment, that I could tell my picture of the ribbons was not as good on my Rebel XT as it would have been on the 40D.


Someone very wisely commented that when my new 40D came back, I should make a comparison. The original photo on Day 5 had been Photoshopped to "crisp" it up. This time I show the unedited photos from each camera.


I now feel very vindicated for wanting a nicer camera. Can you tell the difference?

  3. No....they were both kit lens, but the new one is a 28-135, the other was a zoom to 85mm I think.
    Could it just be the lens? I certainly hope not!!!
