How to get a REALLY nice camera by luckbealauren

"I'm so proud of myself for finding a good deal and purchasing a really nice camera I can expect to have and enjoy for a long, long time."

How I did it: I had been doing some research and checking ads to get price comparisons. I settled on the Nikon D40 and knew about what to expect to pay. Then the other day I saw an ad in the paper for TWO lenses to come with the camera, and a bag and instructional DVD and all that jazz...plus it was the best deal so far, $200 bucks of instant savings. So I jumped on it, went to a local camera store and checked out the camera, slept on it overnight and then went back the next day and made my purchase! I'm so excited and can't wait to take lots of really great pictures!    

Lessons & tips: Take your time, but be ready to act fast if the right deal comes along. I also bought it from a store that only sells cameras and camera stuff, so their staff was very helpful.

    I picked out a camera! Saw an ad for the Nikon D40 with two lenses CRAZY ON SALE in the paper today, and went to the store to try her on. Gave it the rest of today to think about it, but I’m going back first thing tomorrow to get it, I’m so sold.

    I can’t WAIT for my first nice camera ever! I’m no professional photog, but it’s a big step up for me.

    I will take pictures of all sorts of things I think are wonderful.

    But I will NOT become convinced I am an artist. I think photography is the number one artistic medium that people convince themselves they’re stellar at, when they haven’t got a clue.
