Show me: your first photo taken with a new camera or lens

[makinorlando]

I know I took some photos in the house when the camera came - pets, TV, pictures, etc, but this was the first official Disney picture I took the day after it arrived

The first pic with my Canon 300d (Rebel)

The first pic with my new lens

Here's the second picture (DSC_0002.jpg) after I learned to remove the lens hood when necessary.

I think we're all been there... at least, I hope so since I sure have been. Maybe I should just pick up a proper flash unit one of these days...

I purchased this lens specifically for capturing the action at my DD volleyball tournaments. Technically the following isn't the first shot with this lens, as I did test it at home first. However this is my first attempt at capturing my DD in action with my new 50mm 1.4.

First picture taken with my Nikon D50 back in Jan of '06:

First picture I took with my Nikkor 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6G ED-IF AF-S VR:
Took this particular picture to prove to myself that the VR works (300mm ISO 1600 f/5.6 1/6th handheld)

I don't remember what the first picture I took with my 50mm f/1.8 lens was. I think it may have been just a pic of the bedroom so I probably deleted it. I did buy it right before we left for Disney so I believe this is the first picture I took with it down there:

ok, got to take a few pictures today with my new pentax k100d. the very first picture i took was super blurry (as were some subsequent pictures) because i was playing around with some lenses that my bf's step-dad gave me that weren't automatic and i had the manual focus on. oops. live and learn!

here they are:

Here is my first picture with my 50mm 1.4 lens

This should be on the Photographing Pets thread. I love it.

This should be on the Photographing Pets thread. I love it.

Agreed...Great first shot BTW!!

 

[ukcatfan]

Can't show the first few from K100D b/c DW does not like her pic posted. Images 5-9 must have been deleted , so here is #10

This the first from my 50mm SMC-A f/2.

It is completely a coincidence that both are a hibiscus. They are completely different locations.

These were the 2nd and 143rd shots taken with my 1st digicam... a Canon G-1. I paid top dollar to have it when it was a few days new on the market... $899... plus I dropped $400 for a 1G microdrive and $100 for spare batery and semi-hard case. I got soaked but shot 15,000 priceless memories with it before stepping up to a 300D. Photo on left was pre-trip planning and the photo below on the right wastaken in the Latin quarter, Paris in the evening.

This is one of my first with my Cannon S2 IS...I couldn't find the very first one. This is the first nice camera that I have ever had, so it's the 8th one.

This is one of the first with my previous camera a Sony Cybershot DSC-S40

After the Tax $$ gets here I will have two new lenses and come more filters to try... Yay Me!

 

[laura001]

These were my first pics taken with Canon PSS3 IS

Neither of them have been touched up at all and both were taken on Auto

This is the very first photo I took with my brand new Canon S3IS, which I bought today!!! So far I love it, but I have only taken about 6 photos!!! My dog, Charlotte is going to be very sorry that I have a new camera - she will be the subject of a lot of photos, I'm guessing!!!

I was cleaning up some old subscriptions (I took my subscription list from 33 pages to 3!) and I thought I'd give this thread a bump, since we have so many folks who have picked up new cameras recently. Anyone else care to share their first shots?

 

[handicap18]

This isn't the first pic I took with my new D300. It's actually the 3rd. The first 2 I didn't download.
