RE: Nikkor 35mm F2 Lens 📷 Up Close And Personal

oh gosh, i just love your photos!

@condra, I want to buy a camera. What would you suggest for someone who wants to get a camera that is entry level, but can be upgraded in the future as the skill levels increase? I'd also like to shoot video, is it possible to have a camera that does both?

Sort:  

@princessmewmew I would recommend to try cheap and lightweight cameras. They have two benefits:

  1. if it's somewhat cheap you are not worried about damaging it in the rain or sand etc. which might result in more interesting photos
  2. light camera is more likely with you when you see something interesting.

I've seen many people getting too "good" cameras and ending up worrying about it instead of getting pictures. When you get experience with simpler camera you no longer need to ask for advice as you already know what upgrade would suit your personal need.

ah, thank you! some great advice there. Any specific model you would recommend?

  1. Small & light but somewhat expensive and not upgradeable = any version of Sony RX100

  2. Cheap & upgradeable but quite large & somewhat heavy = Canon EOS 1300d (18-55) KIT

  3. same as above = Nikon D3400 (18-55) KIT

  4. challenge to use mobile phone, maybe get a pocket sized stand for it to allow low light shooting with long shutter

for 2&3 the upgrade would be to get 35mm f1.8 lense maybe after a years use of kit lense
