WHAT CAMERA SHOULD I GET?
Image: techradar.com
The conversation normally starts with, "Hey Nana you are a photographer, what camera should I get?" While this is a simple question it can also prove to be a difficult one too.
When you start to factor in cost, quality, skill level, weight among other things it can get frustrating shopping for a new camera.
Since I get this question quite often, I have decided to suggest some cameras based on skill level and budget. I started with a Canon T3 and moved on to a Canon 6D.
Before my suggestions, here are some tips:
-Borrow a friend's camera to try your hands on
-Rent before you buy if possible
-Read reviews online (Amazon, B&H, Adorama)
-Compare cameras to make sure they suit your need (www.snapsort.com)
-Buy used/refurbished and shop for deals (I'm always open to help)
My picks:
Below $500 and Beginner
*Canon T3 or T3i
*Nikon D3200 or D3300
*Sony Alpha A6000
Below $1000 and Intermediate
*Nikon D7200 or D7300
*Canon T5i or Canon 60D
*Sony Alpha A6300
Below $2000 and Advance
*Nikon D750
*Canon 6D
*Sony A6500
*Sony A 7 II
Big Spenders and Pro
*Nikon D610
*Canon 5D Mark III
*Canon 5D Mark IV
*Sony A 7R II
Shopping for a new camera is just like buying a car. You need time and patience. I hope this post will assist you in choosing your first or next camera.
I'm always happy to address your questions or concerns.
Thank you for reading.
