The title just about says it all. I never was very good at photography, but I always found it fun. My current new camera is a canon g12. My other camera is a canon eos elan 2 e. ( film )

Welcome and enjoy yourself while getting back into photography :) film is fun yet tedious. Are you developing yourself?

It embarrasses me to admit I don't know how.As soon as I learn more about my G12 ,I'll try. If I was as young as my grandson, in would not be a problem. BTW, our son is a neonatologist and used to work for the U. of Wisconsin. He got his brains from his mama's side of the family.

Hey, Don't be embarrassed, (I figured it out) When you are ready let me know and I will guide you...At the top of this page you will see a menu, click on that, choose where you want the photo (catagory) When you down load it may take some time, so be patient, (Don't hit preview before you send)... It really is easier than I thought it would be....

I have a canon 50D but also have a G12 that I keep in my jacket pocket. You will like that camera. It takes good photos; and the videos, even though only 720p are stunning. When you play back a video in the camera the sound will barely be audible. However, when played back on the computer or TV the sound is awesome. Have fun with your new camera.

Welcome, Wibur! It's never too late to try new things, I know!!! lol Just started getting back into photography last year. Grandkids are great teachers sometimes, but give it a little while and you can teach THEM about photography. Looking forward to seeing your photos. Just send a note on this site if you have a question and you'll get lots of help from some wonderful people.
