15” Macbook Pro - $1799 Canon EOS Rebel T3 - $549 Nikon 3100 - ~$600 Nikon 5000 - ~$750 Adobe Photoshop CS5 Extended - $700 TOTAL (w/Canon) = $3048 TOTAL (w/Nikon 3100) =$3099 TOTAL (w/Nikon 5000) = $3249 Realizing the cost of my dreams. I guess I could get a cheaper computer, but I really love Macs - I use one for work and it’s magical. I don’t want to get into photography because it’s the new black. I want to do it because I feel like I can express myself adequately through the medium of photography.
