Straight from the Camera snaps (EOS 750D with EF-S 18-135mm STM IS)

I wish to thank DPReview and the kind users who thanks to their help I was able to decide in three days which Dslr and Lenses to buy during my holiday in Poland. Also thanks to external friends (J. Clugston and C. Jefree) for their helpful comments. I did not plan to buy the DSLR but while I was in a photo store, instinct told me that now is the time to make the Digitial to  DSLR switch.

Here I am sharing some images from Krakov (Poland) taken by the Canon 750D Rebel (T6i) and Canon 18-105mm IS STM lens using auto, full screen metering, no post editing (except resizing), in jpg format (I did not yet stepped in the RAW world). As they say straight from the camera.

One of the first snapshots in full daylight as a start.

Telephoto of the above subject from same position.

Portrait of my wife. The lens is criticised on its low-specs on portarait (while excellent on everything else). O like its portraits, but judge yourself.

Portrait of my children in the middle of a busy square. Background people well blurred out, shadow on son's face not too dark (as often happened with my powershot digital cameras), Exposure on my daughters fair face kept good tones (often she gets over-exposed)

I was amazed that it has sub-macro capabilities. I mean not a true macro, but you can get close as 25cm away from the subject. That's a good bonus.

Excellent detail capture, colour representation and overall image quality - impressed.

Image against sunlight (almost) No over-contrast image - tones in good balance.

Happy with the lansdcapes. A 15mm lens would be better but 18mm does fine too (considering the 105mm zoom bonus!)

Portrait. Here is what I think where the lens do not excel as per some reviews that I've read. The background may not be very blurred compared to other lenses. However remember that this was taken in full auto and manual settings with stepping down the the f would might created a more desirable background.

Inddor images from a rather dark churh. No tripod, IS on. Very very pleased.

Another image from the church with considerable zooming. Again excellent image in my opinion.

Nightshot image. Auto, no tripod, but steady hand. I love it. Noise was inevatibale when fully cropped in, but when resized, everything is polished smoothly.

Another shot from the middle of the night in auto, no tripod.

At the end I am very happy user of the 18-135mm IS lens and it is a very good idea to by a rebel without lens (body only) and then buy this lens insted the standard 18-55mm which comes boxed with most cameras.

Feel free to comment or ask questions. So much more to learn now and will be happy to help others. Hope I keep receiveing the help from this No.1 photo forum!
