Hello all,
I'm nwafan20, My home airport is DTW, my favorite airline is NWA, and I am a aviation enthusiast and photography enthusiast. I'm in high school and looking at getting my College degree in Airfield management, but become a commercial pilot.
Alright, currently, I am using a 7.2MP digital point and shoot. Soon, I am planning to upgrade to a digital SLR. My budget it about $700 including a GOOD lens or two. I was looking at the Olympus Evolt E-500, anyone have any experience with this camera? I know it's not a Canon or Nikon and that is why I am being careful about buying it, I don't want to buy it than turn around and buy a new camera. So, what do you guys think, heres a link to the Cnet review on the camera:
http://reviews.cnet.com/Olympus_EVOLT_E ... 70097.html (http://reviews.cnet.com/Olympus_EVOLT_E_500_with_14_45mm_f_3_5_5_6_lens_40 _150mm_f_3_5_4_5_lens/4505-6501_7-31570097.html)
Also, in case anyone is interested, here are my jetphotos.net photos, not the best, but I don't have the camera to take better pictures with, nor the skill yet in photoshop to make my photos super-good, But I have improved a lot since my first upload acceptance (The NW old colors 757)

I hope I will enjoy many good discussions on this fourm.
