Camera, lenses, and more
One thing I found out is that you need a good camera bag. A good bag to hold your lenses and camera when you are out shooting. I found this one on amazon, and I just love it. Lenses and camera not included.
Let’s talk kit lenses. They are not the best of quality, but they will do when you have nothing else. Believe it or not my favorite lens is the kit lens 75-300mm. I love the zoom it has on it, and I think that it takes surprisingly good photos. I use this one the most. If you are just starting out, the kit is all that you will need. Use these to practice till you are ready to go with the big boys. The ones that cost over $1000. At the moment that is out of my price range.
If I could get the 24-50mm, I believe that it would be a better lens. .
This lens is supposed to be for portraits, but I found the 75-300mm lens better for the range I can get.
This is my wish list. These two are nice lenses, or as photographers say, “nice glass.” I have been wanting to get a picture of the moon, and I do believe that either of these would do the trick. One of these days I will be able to get one of these lenses.
When buying lenses don’t just buy the cheap one because that’s all you can afford, wait till you can get the one you want. The 500mm lenses was a cheap lens, they came with an adaptor that would take it to 1000mm. sounds nice, but not. These lenses do take okay photos, but they do not have any stabilization built into them. When it comes to lenses, I would suggest that you save and wait to get the lens that you want.
You can see that this lens does not give the best quality photo.
Scan disk. Don’t just get any old one, you want one with lots of gigabytes. The more gigabytes the more photos. I have some scan disk that have 8,000 plus photos on them and still can put more on them, I also have some that only have a little over 4,000 and cannot add any more. They may cost a little more, but it is worth it.
