RE: A handful of Vignettes for the 1st Steemit Photography Portrait Contest
wow I love you photoes! i am just starting out in photography which camera is a good one to start off, i can afford like $1500.
Hi. I like the Canon t6i (make sure it is the "i" model) if you want a DSLR. If you prefer a mirror-less camera, the Sony a6000 and a6300 are great. The Panasonic Lumix gx85 has been on clearance at Adorama photography if you are in the USA. It is a great starter camera and with a great lens set was under $600.
Best bet would be to start with a second hand set with some lenses, you can find those for even under $350. Use the rest to get a good tripod, flashgun and a bag for all stuff. Extra batteries come in handy too.
My set consists of a Canon EOS 550D (Rebel T2i), Sigma ART 50 mm 1.4, two kit lenses, an ultra wide angle zoom, and three vintage primes.
If you need weather proofing, consider Pentax, they have good, affordable weather proofed cameras with a wide range of lenses.
