Beginner to photography
So like the title says I am interested in photography but know next to nothing about it. My question is what's a good camera for someone like me preferably under $800? Thanks in advance for the help.
You're viewing a single thread.
I started out with an entree level DSLR camera from Canon. I choose Canon because there are so many cheap lenses available, second hand but also from third parties, like Tamron, Sigma and Rokinon. I just tried different lenses, but also things like a reversal ring or extension tube, m42 adapter, polarizer filters and many other things. That is how I rolled into astro photography, whereas nowadays I'm more into bird photography. My advice, just play around and experience what you like the best. Expensive gear is oftentimes not the answer.
I highly appreciate your help and will keep it in mind, but a few of the comments suggested I start with my phone camera and play around with the setting there so will probably do that before making a decision. Thanks.
Sure go ahead! I was always interested in the technical side which made me pursue the route with adapters and different types of lenses. I hope you find what makes you happy :)
Thank you, I appreciate all your help.
