Hi there, I'm a Chinese student studying at King's London. Reason for being all over the world is that I've lived in too many to count and I feel I call them all home. Been living in Somerset for the last 6 years though.
Just got meself a stormtrooper white kx from good friends srs and entering into the photography scene. I'm a mac user and looking to expand on some new lenses. Aside from the kit lens I have none. I travel quite a lot and like travelling light. I'm a newb and don't care hugely about image quality but more image composition. I'm looking for a nice convenient lens that does a lot and doesn't cost much as I'm a student. I have a mix of things I like to call passions. I'm a pianist and rugby player (I know precious fingers heard it all). I am a tech geek but when it comes to cameras I know a bit but really compared everyone else on this amazing forum..."whoop" *swishes hand over the head* I hope to learn lots from all of you.
