Anything in between!

It's my first time to get a deal on really having a hard thought whether or not to push through with photography.  Before, I used to think that I can never be a pro since I am not really onto buying a DSLR. But a chain of events had happened in such a whirlwind that paved way to my life changing perspective about photography. I lost my job. I got premium pay. I am free.

Just before I set on foot to lovely Cebu, Bantayan & Bohol a few weeks ago, I've finally took a leap in my passion by exploring Hidalgo and finally meeting the legendary Mang Ramon of Mayers.  I have read a lot about this man. I was loaded with everything I need to counter his annoying antics. But he proved me wrong. I was expecting this guy to play it hard on me but I was disappointed. There came this Chinese guy that greeted me warmly and answered my query with intellect. I know for sure that this guy knows his business and he can smell exactly when real deal is coming.  Viola in a few minutes I got my hands running on my hard earned D90.

The Visayas tour was over and I am back here in Manila to deal with my daily routines. In spite that I am mostly spending my time in the Rizal, I have not frozen my Fitness First account still, there is hope that before the year ends, I will be frequenting Metro Manila often giving me ample time to shed th sweat out of me.  In the meantime my business now is choosing between the zoom & wide angle lens for my D90. These two lens types would definitely cost an arm & leg on my budget.  I am holding back the cash but I realized that this is the nest time for me to explore new avenues of my interest while I ma free.  Once I'm back into action, I doubt if I would have pleasure to think of these things that much. The easiest thing to do is getting into a swipe mode when the plastics are offering a lot of perks. Another story follows when it's payback time.

Oh I guess Im getting off the topic. Anyway, the real ordeal would choosing between a 55-300 VR Nikon Lens with 2 yr warranty over a 70-300 VR new but no warranty.  As for price, the latter is a gem but having the thought of getting it without  a warranty is a big gamble.  I have asked around with other photo enthusiast and all leads me to getting the expnsive one even without the warranty. Point is, I have try it several times before closing the deal. When it comes to lens, the utmost concern is picture quality rndition. No matter how tough a lens cuould be at its pristine condition and yet it fails to deliver bottom line its far more a waste of money.  So here I am looking forward to finally getting the right stuff.
