    Hello to all

    Hello all,
    New to DSLR and am on here to learn and take critisism from all and sundry.
    Not taken any descent pictures for about 15 yrs so thought i'd upgrade the compact that gets thrown in the bag for family day trips with a Canon EOS 60D with the EF-S 17-85mm f/4-5.6 IS USM Lens Kit. i did purchase a cheap telephoto too.
    Only bought it days before a family holiday so many many pictures taken, some good mostly bad from what i've seen so far.
    Holiday gave me lots of time for playing about with it and reading up in the evenings as why those pictures weren't quite what i wanted to achieve,but by the end i got some good portraits that i'm happy with and a few good landscapes which will get posted on here as soon as i get a chance to go through them.
    Mostly bought the camera for motorsport and bike racing (road racing) in particular, so that will be my main focus on learning along with some landscapes.
    You all seem like a pretty friendly lot and seems to be some good advice on the forum.

    Welcome Stuart,

    The 60D's an excellent camera, and I'm sure you'll be producing consistent images in no time. There are quite a few users of the 60D here who'll be only too willing to help with any specific questions you have.

                  Hello Stuart and welcome to the forum.
                  The camera works just fine, it's the idiot staring through the viewfinder that need's help!

                        Well as i expected a very friendly responce from all.
                        I'm sure i'll be firing questions soon enough.
                        And DP the Snapper I'm sure you'll get some shots of BSB and Moto GP up here soon, road racing might have to wait till next year now.
