I haven’t used it but it looks similar to my Canon EOS 500n. Canon and Nikon do similar ranges actually with most photographers choosing one camp or the other. A bit like Boeing V Airbus actually.

From the F55’s spec it looks like it has a number of auto modes as well as manual and should produce good pictures for you. I don’t know what lens comes as standard, probably a 28 or 30mm, zooming to around 80mm ? These are good for shots when you can get close to the subject. If you can afford it, try for something that zooms to around 300mm more or less, as this will let you get decent plane shots from those all to often, too far away vantage points.

There are quite often, two lens set deals available with these types of SLR cameras at a lot of retailers, so it pays to shop around.

Happy snapping and looking forward to seeing your first shots 😀

I was watching a documentary on British Caledonian and an ex hostess was talking about their recruitment policy. Good looks were high on the agenda and married or “involved” women were encouraged not to apply !

This is my favourite registration… “Use the force”
