Title: Introduction
Post by: mikelsr on February 28, 2016, 09:17:58 PM
Hello everyone, I'm Mike Matthews from San Antonio TX in the US. I've just learned about the Magic Lantern from a co-worker and thought I would give it a try. I have a Canon T5i with the standard kit lenses, a good tripod and head, and a monopole.  I enjoy shooting cars, macro, astrophotography, and water droplets. I'm really fairly new at photography and learning.

The T5i/700D is an excellent camera - has had one for 3 years. Magic Lantern expands the scope of the camera immensely, and the T5i actually handles raw film making quite well. The best advice I could give is to browse the ML website. Tons of important info is found here, not only in the T5i-thread but all over the place. Take your time to learn your camera both with and without ML; it's a good work horse. Good luck from Denmark.
