RE: When Should You Upgrade Your Camera Gear?

in #photography5 years ago

Yes, that does make a lot of sense
For now I focus on the story I want to share more than anything else
I also find a mobile phone works best with that because it is almost always with me, so it is easy to whip it out and record something as when it happens.
Having said that, the footage in low light is terrible and I have been considering to get something that will help me out with that...
And through experience, I don't want the set up of that make me lose the moment ...
Still figuring it out :)
This is good advice
Thank you :D

Thanks.

Low light and high contrast situations are a lot of what led me to upgrade. I wanted to shoot pictures of the Milky Way and the stars, and the tiny lens on the phone just could not do it.

I still shoot a lot with my phone, but then I made a point of getting a phone with the best camera available. If I am shooting to try and get a great photo, then I use my A 6000. If I'm just getting snapshots of our trip then I often reach for the phone.

If you know your camera well enough, and use auto-focus, a serious camera can be just as fast as your phone. It's also a lot heavier. Sometimes I just don't want to carry it around.

I am still toying with the idea. Having bought the DJI Osmo and then realising the set up took too much time. And the battery life wa sad. And then audio was not fantastic. But the footages were amazing. But after awhile it became too much work and I sold it off.
Thank you for the tip 😊

I'd live to have a drone. I think it would be an awesome toy, but I don't actually need one, and most of the places I like to shoot don't allow them.
