Hi all!

I've recently bought a Canon 1200D as my wife and I are going on a trip to France and thought it would be a good excuse to finally get a DSLR. I've had a passing interest in photography for a long time, mainly landscape stuff so that is what I'm assuming I'll be concentrating on, but who knows where I may end up...

The camera came as part of a bundle with an 18-55mm lens and a 75-300mm for under £300, whilst I was agonizing over whether to get something that isn't so 'entry-level' it seemed like to good of a deal to miss. I appreciate the lenses may not be the best and I could easily justify to myself spending out on nice kit, but I'm hoping I can get some good results with what I have.

Found loads of useful things already on here!

Hi Craig and :welcome: to the forum :wave:
 
welcome to the forum fella- I'm near Taunton, should you fancy a meet for some wildlife photography?

the 75-300mm is more than capable and I know some lovely locations- have a browse at my flickr account linked below
