Hello all! A friend recommended this site and in a short period of time I've learned so much. I currently use a kodak easyshare zd15. Nothing special I know but darn - it takes pretty decent pics. I am about to order a Canon Rebel T31 with a 18-135 mm lens. I'm excited about it and hope it will take better pics than my little point and shoot. I need to order a lens filter and am clueless although I have read that a good brand is the Hoya as well as B+W. Any and all suggestions are welcomed. Here are a few dog pics I've taken recently of a show dog belonging to my friend with my P&S. I'm hoping the new camera gives me those nice blurry backgrounds I am seeking. ;-) Thanks for a great site. Jeanne

Thank you very much! I'm a little nervous about buying the new camera - I feel I get pretty good shots with the little camera I currently use but I would have to think that a dslr will give me more of what I want. Thanks again!

Thank you David! It came yesterday! I'm very excited - it looks great - now to study the manual a bit and make the time to try it out. I also ordered the "dummy" book. Hopefully I'll be sharing my first pics soon! Can't wait!! :-)
