It's easy to get started, it is difficult to destroy the door

It is not easy to find a camera that suits you. Each camera system has its own characteristics. Each lens has the topic suitable for shooting. If you do n’t have a deep understanding of your own shooting content and shooting habits, you can see what you see. The camera wants, except for spending a bunch of money to buy an electronic product that might not be able to pass, it may not be able to take any works that can be satisfactory.

Before choosing a camera that suits us, we should conduct appropriate research and analyze our true needs, so that we can find the most suitable camera system for ourselves.

It is easy to buy a camera, and it is difficult to change the door. Once we enter a certain brand and have a certain accumulation of the lens, if we want to destroy the door, we must spend a lot of money and energy. The initial stage of the camera is the process of adaptation of the rules. Once the operating characteristics of a brand are adapted to a certain brand, there will always be a period of inappropriate adaptation to other homes. They always feel that their camera brands are the best, and other homes will have such disadvantages.

Re -investing a new system also means that we will learn new rules. The more we invest in the previous brand, the more difficult it is to change the new brand. The reason why we recommend our favorite brands, because they may not be familiar with other brands.

Before the new camera, you may wish to consider the following questions.

1. Understand your needs

Looking back on the photos you took before, whether you took a mobile phone or using other cameras, take a look at the type you took most often. Think about your favorite or what the subject you want to take.

Not everyone needs the black technology function of the new camera. If you do not shoot sports and animals, you do not require the limit high -speed shutter. Even for most people, we don't even need to have such a large sensor. Although we say that the bottom -up level is the first -level, but for most people, they can't see the third level.

The reason for them to buy the new camera may be the same as buying a new phone. It is not old and not easy to use, but the new one is more face -to -face.

2. Define your budget

The equipment is a bottomless hole, and the budget is not enough. Everyone has Gas (Gear Acquisition Syndrome). When you see a new camera and new lens, you want it. Equipment, thinking that if you have that camera, you can shoot better than others.

However, everyone knows that the more money spent does not mean that the better the shooting. The mage of 200,000 daily equipment may not be able to capture people's hearts at the moment when people's mobile phones are shot.

How much money to buy a camera is a problem that everyone can't escape. I believe that every classmate who loves film will not refuse the brand of Lulai, but many people choose the seagull when they buy the first double -counter camera in their lives. Jacayamamia is not that they prefer those domestic Japanese brands, but Lalai obviously exceeds the level they can afford.

However, I have to say that a penny is a penny. In the budget you can afford, try to buy a relatively better camera. Break through your bottleneck.

The budget is not just a camera money. If we buy a replaceable lens camera, then a lens may be difficult to satisfy our pursuit of content. For beginners, two lenses are generally needed. To help us adapt to the characteristics of various focal lengths and meet daily hang -up shooting, we also need a fixed focus lens to shoot specific theme content.

As for whether to buy a hood, this question is not good, the quality of the hood is indeed not good, but the price is affordable. The quality of quality is relative. For a photo, the quality of the picture is very important, but it is not a determined factor in a good photo. The content is. If you are an experienced photographer and have used many different lenses, then the set will definitely be meaningless for you, because it is mediocre and no place in all aspects of quality performance. Its biggest advantage is that things may not be so beautiful, but the price is really low. Buying a fixed focus lens with rich common focus at this price may be a must -have. The characteristics of the perspective, familiar with this lens, can we know what focal length is most suitable for ourselves. When you go to buy high -end lenses, you will be more selective and targeted. What kind of lens is.

The camera's camera accessories, such as spare batteries, spare memory cards, camera bags, tripods, etc., and should be purchased on demand, but should also be considered within the budget.

3. Do not send technology when buying a camera

The technology is hone. Some people see the first reaction of a good -looking photo is to comment and ask the author to take the photo parameters of this photo. It seems that they can take the same beautiful photos with the same parameters. However, for those experienced shooting, the parameters of each screen have long become a conditional reflex. When they see a photo, they can probably estimate what kind of aperture needs to be used for this photo. And the shutter. Photo by Chuttersnap on Unsplash

The premise is the accumulation of quantity. If you shoot too much, you will naturally know what the current environment should be used to deal with. Better equipment may bring us higher extreme indicators, such as higher pixels or faster shutters. However, most of the scenarios are not used in these extreme indicators. Instead of spending investment on the equipment, it is better to buy more albums and take a look at the works of those photographers. It is content. And the master is always the photographer himself, not the equipment.

What is really important to take pictures is your experience, your technology, and your creativity.

Experience can be accumulated (must), technology can be tempering, and creativity is its own. Only when these three play perfectly can we take good photos.

Knowing what you want to shoot is the most important thing.

In terms of technology, at the same price level, the gap between modern digital cameras is not so large. What camera to choose is nothing more than an entry. In the final analysis, it is the problem of choosing a brand. When choosing a camera, it should not be limited to the fuselage, but it should be seen longer. Expansion is far more important than the fuselage.

And if you just want a consumer camera without considering the future upgrade, in fact, now, what camera is not much different for you. Don't expect to buy a camera to take those tall photos. It is always people who affect the photos. The camera is just a tool in the final analysis.
