Trying Out My New Canon Rebel T6i

This week I got a new Canon Rebel T6i. I’ve been in the Nikon camp for a long time and I’ve enjoyed the cameras I’ve used, but I’m at a point where I’d like to get more mileage out of my DSLR, not only as a camera, but as a webcam for when I do live streams/video calls. It’s much much easier (read: possible) to do that on the T6i, and not possible on the D3300, which is what I have. This weekend I got to take the camera out for a spin when the family went to Longwood Garden. Here’s some of my better shots (Flickr album here)

    Testing your Responsive Site

Presumably, you’re doing this because…

  1. Beautiful shots, Joe! Were you able to get the new one hooked up to your computer for a web cam? Also, I’d love to see specs on your new PC. I’m currently planning out a PC build myself.
