So you have the lens sorted, You need to carry the camera comfortably.

I find a good holster type camera case, attached to my rucsac hip belt, carries my camera comfortably around the hills fine. Ready for action but not around my neck. Comfortable, safe and waterproof.
Mine is a CCS one, not made any more but plenty on ebay and they never ware out!

Friend of mine clips his case to both shoulder straps, across the front of his chest. He finds it more comfortable and has easy access as he walks along.

Lovely, especially in the summer, autumn and spring. In fact winter can be good as well! Snow on the hills.....

I quite like it. I like the way the shadows fall.
I think that the background is a little distracting, I think there should be less of it or maybe a lot more!
Perhaps it requires careful thought about which subject you apply it to.

I do think that you should try these things, it could be just what you need to make that good picture great!

But this one was back in the summer! It is one of my favorite spots, from boyhood.Comment Image


Don't forget the cheap zooms can do a good job too. This was taken with the Da 55-200.

Da 40mm seems good to me, and not too expensive.

Thanks for posting the image for me, having a little trouble there.

I was looking at the image and wasn't sure if I had the camera off or not. I looked at the fence, then the trees and of course the horizon was on a slope and then I thought what the hell it looked ok to me!
So I thought I would seek a second opinion.

Keep checking the classified adverts from forum members, several bodies for sale at the moment.
