Choosing a DSLR is a tricky business. It is only at first glance that they are all the same. In fact, each camera is unique. You can choose a camera based on your needs and requirements. There is no point in buying a professional model for 100-200 thousand rubles if you have never held a DSLR in your hands before. And the professional photographer does not need to buy an entry-level camera either, because it does not meet his requirements and skill level at all. Next, we will talk about how to choose a camera for yourself and what you need to pay attention to when choosing.
Instructions
Step 1
If you are looking for information on choosing a camera, then most likely you are going to buy your first DSLR. Therefore, professional models are not worth considering. You will come to their purchase after a while. You always need to start work with younger models. The most common and suitable cameras are NIKON D60, NIKON D70, NIKON D3000, NIKON D3100, NIKON D5000, NIKON D5100, CANON EOS 1000D, CANON EOS 1100D, CANON EOS 500D, CANON EOS 550D, CANON EOS 600D, SONY DSLR-A330, SONY DSLR-A380L, SONY DSLR-A290L, SONY DSLR-A230Y, SONY DSLR-A390L, SONY DSLR-A500L.
Step 2
They have all the customization options a beginner needs. Not too high, but quite sufficient indicators of light sensitivity (ISO), color temperature, rate of fire, focusing speed, etc. allow a beginner to smoothly "enter the topic" and gradually figure out what's what, what it is for and how to use it.
Step 3
The size of the matrix, of course, matters, but when choosing to focus only on it. If you want to make your photo more than just “taking a photo”, make sure that the camera can take pictures not only in.jpg
Step 4
As a rule, junior models are supplied with kit lenses upon purchase. Kitovy - a factory lens with average performance and low aperture ratio. But for the first experience, it is quite enough to get comfortable with the new technique. Later, you can choose the lens that suits you, or even several.
Step 5
Go shopping with your memory card before buying. Look at different cameras, insert your memory card and take several shots with different settings or in different modes. So you will personally appreciate the camera's performance, rate of fire, ergonomics and convenience. And at home you can view the pictures on a computer and also appreciate the color rendition, noise level, clarity and other nuances. After a personal "acquaintance" it will be much easier for you to make a choice.
