Several months ago I never thought it would be possible to turn blogging into something lucrative. Well, July 2006 has been very generous to me and so I went to Canon Philippines to buy my first dSLR, the Canon 350D with kit lens.
The money I spent on this body + kit lens (Canon gave me a few freebies like a 256MB CF card and mini tripod) was all earned from blogging with b5media and KMM.
Is a professional camera the most expensive thing blogging can buy? Answer is NO:
The house that blogging bought
The car that blogging bought
The camera, gaming console and monitor that blogging bought
Abe has also bought a Canon 350D, from, well, from his photo gallery! Talk about reinvesting the money you earn!

Now you’ve got the bug Darren and I caught. It’s great isn’t it? And the more you learn, the more you get motivated to work even harder at it.
Best of luck!

[…] When I bought my camera last year, there was a secondary reason to it than just photography. It was to involve myself with user groups associated with the gadgets that you owned. Owning digital SLRs, Macs, iPods — these are all interesting gadgets but you come to realize that the people who own these things are much more interesting. Not that I’d buy myself into the organization – it isn’t that; no not at all. I really just wanted to immerse myself into this fun world of Filipino geeks. […]
