    Oh yeah, you're 100% right.
    I just can wait to start practice (because I'll get my camera this Monday).

    Just wanted to bump this a little bit. I think that if you're looking at your camera as an investment - and, when you take photography seriously, it is - then it's worth it to spend a bit more up front. When you're able to spend an extra hundred bucks or so now, it'll save you spending another thousand a year or so down the road.

    Quick question : should I buy a good lens for my camera (Olympus E500) or after I'm doing my lessons on this one to buy another one better?
    This Olympus coming with 2 lenses.
    I'm not thinking to buy right now, later, but... should I or not?

    Thanx.

    Only you can answer what your needs are...

    If I were you I'd take a couple thousand pictures to get the feel for what you need..

    Personally, I'd wait - I'd struggle with that choice, of course, but I'd wait. By playing with and getting a feel for the camera first you'll be able to get a much better sense of what you're looking and what will help you to capture the shots that you want.
