Zeckson, what is it that technically pissed you by the quality? I am not sure if you are referring the sharpness but again, your shots look alright.
You did well with even just this basic kit lens, which kinda impressive. I have this kit lens too but just still can't bring out its beauty ever since I own it. You truly motivate me of not letting go this kit lens.
Good that you've got this model. She's truly good & I believe you have truly bring out the 'sexiness that within her'. Good job!!
