Hey everyone,
I’m new to this board and thought I would say hi.

I am an IT student from New Zealand. Hi to all the Kiwi’s on the board… if there are any.

I wana be a shooter. I’ll try and attach my very first (only) shot to this post.

I use a fuji S5600. If you don’t know about them… it’s a 5.1Mp cam with 10x optical zoom. F3.2:dry: to 8. Does ISO 64 thru to 1600. I think shutter goes from 3secs to 1/1000. It’s a good general purpose cam.

I have yet to go on a candid expedition. Only had the cam for about 3 weeks… still payin it off lol.


Here is my very first candid shot.

New Zealand, how cool! The closest I've ever been to New Zealand is when I visited Bora Bora, Moorea, and Tahiti back in the mid 90's.

Welcome to the board!
