A camera is a very personal object. It becomes even more personal because you will be carrying it with you all the time, recording your memories or working with it. Go to a good camera store and look at a few different cameras. 1) The feel of the camera: Hold it and feel it. Do you like how it fits your hands? Can you press the buttons and turn the wheels in a comfortable way? Do you like the placement of the viewfinder? Do you like the strap? The strap can be change later. It can be personalized. Is the weight good for you? 2) Go to the MENU: Scroll around it. Is it simple? It's OK that you don't understand everything now, you can take photography classes later on, just see that you feel good moving around the menu. Can you touch all the button and dials without stretching out your hands and fingers too much? Again: does it fit? Is it intuitive? Do you think that you will be able to understand where to find the functions in an easy manner? Budget: Well, this should have been the first subject on the list! Have a budget in mind for the camera and lens. Remember to include enough money for the extra
batteries and at least 2 memory cards (16 GB). Full Frame or not? I'm going to make this really simple. What you see is what you get. A camera that has a full frame will allow you to capture what you see. All lenses will behave accordingly. Nothing will be cropped. It is more expensive. There are different prices for full frame cameras. Many cameras do not have a full frame. This means that the sensor will crop out some of what you are seeing through the viewfinder. When you buy a 50mm lens and use it on a camera that does not have a full frame the image will be cropped a bit. This goes for any lens. Megapixels: Large files use a lot of megapixels (don't forget to get the memory card that will work best) Start looking at cameras that have at least 12 megapixels. This will also be a personal choice that may very well be connected to the budget. Lens: This is where the investment should be. Chances are that your camera will come with a zoom lens. Great. About lens: The best types of lenses are the fixed lenses. That means if you get a 35 mm lens it will only be a 35 mm lens (no zoom). If you want to work with a zoom lens, invest in a good one. See that the aperture will have an opening of F2.8... at least. Usually lenses that have wide apertures will provide amazing quality images. They just get more expensive... but you can get F2.8 at good prices. Ask the dealer if it will work well with your camera. Some lenses are only made for specific types of cameras and models. Video: Do you want a camera with a high quality video capability? Below are some cameras in no specific order:
Full Frame Cameras Nikon D3 Canon 1Ds MK III Nikon D700 Canon 5D MK III Smaller Digital Reflex Cameras (these are lighter than the full frames cameras) Nikon D3000 Nilon D3100 Canon EOS-1000D Canon Rebel T3 1100D Hybrid Cameras: In between a compact camera and a digital single reflex camera. Small. Interchangeable lenses. They have many more functions than the compact cameras (the point and shoot). Good for travel and snap shot. Having said that, there are some great hybrid cameras around. Here are some hybrid cameras: Olympus Pen E-P1 Panasonic Lumix DMC-G1 and DMC-GF1 There are many more types of cameras. When you go to a store make sure to look at many before you choose! Reviewing how to buy a camera: Weight Feel Intuitive Feel Megapixels
