5 reasons to minimize your camera gear

After reading the article by Steve Berardi, my urge of getting new lenses has subsided.

What I need to do now is to maximise my 17-85mm usage (hopefully it will not fail again cause it has failed twice in a span of 2 years - power diagphragm failure) and my 50mm which is under utilised.

Step 1: Learn to compose better
Step 2: Eye for Details
Step 3: Take more pictures and experiment different type of settings according to the len's capability vs the environment.
Step 4: Review the pictures on PC after taking, not just leaving it in the memory card or hard disk
Step 5: Post Processing to bring out the colours if necessary
Step 6: Learn to use external Flash settings! I'm on fully automatic now - ETTL.
