I mean I'm a better photographer, since I've been able to learn from my own mistakes. Shooting a lot of pics gives you a lot of errors from which to learn ;) It raised my photograph level, I believe it is something normal: the more you do one thing, the more you learn on it, right? (of course there is a limit, but I'm far below it...) And I've shoot WAY more pics with the Digital Rebel than with the previous MX (sorry to say it here, but it is the truth)
