Back to the fold.....

Some four years after I gave my 400D & 17-85is to my daughter to fulfill an (intoxicated!) promise that if she got 4 A levels grade A she could have it, I've returned to the Canon SLR fold. I've been using Panasonic TZ's and as good as they are (and they are!), they do lack something.

I've picked up a "refurbished" 500D & 18-55 IS kit lens from the Canon shop on ebay for £330.00. Since it looks to all intents and purposes to be brand new, I'm well pleased with it.

All that remains now is to get my head around the menu's and brush up my lightroom raw editing skills. I shall miss the big zoom though and will probably start checking out lenses................
