My first DSLR

Well...here is it..my first DSLR...a Sony Alpha α330..it's an entry level DSLR which suits me just fine as i am upgrading from digital camera. 

Since it's an entry level model, the kit is basically standard..it includes the body (of course) and come with the new DT 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 SAM lens, 10.2 mega pixels..and most importantly it suits my budget.And i just added a HOYA UV filter for my lens.. Well, most of you will wonder why don't i go for the top 2 brands (Nikon or Canon)? Branding doesn't play much role in my choice. No matter what model or brand a person is using, if they have no skills then it's useless as they can't capture nice photos. Most important is the user's skills..given an entry level, they might produce photos which looks just like pros. And the best part of this camera is it's live view mode. I can shoot is just like a digital camera without looking through the viewfinder and it has a fast autofocus in live view mode. This is handy for me as given the nature of events that i mostly attend, it is a good feature. 

But all in all, the choice is up to the users. For the time being, i am satisfied with it and looking forward to add at least another lens for my DSLR.. Here are a few pics to share
