So I've been musing lately on what I should ask for as a graduation present from my parents.

Seeing as I'm going to be studying photography, it might not be a bad move to ask for a nice picture box.

The question is, which one?

Right now the only digital camera I have is a shitty Kodak DX7440. My film camera (Nikon N4004) isn't all that great either, but it works for a lot of things.

Pic unrelated, random shot I dicked around with and then promptly discarded.

You can always do it as a hobby. Save up some, buy and save up some more and look for good deals on lens, bags, flash, accessories.

Its hard.
