The choice of a camera depends on a fairly large number of factors, first of all, on the needs of the user, his estimated budget and skills. When choosing a camera, you should also focus on the specifications and manufacturer.
Choosing a SLR camera
SLR cameras are divided into amateur, semi-professional and professional (full-frame) cameras. If the user did not have DSLRs before the purchase and the camera will be used for travel and shooting family and friends, it is worth staying at the initial sector. The cost of an amateur SLR camera starts from 10-12 thousand rubles. The middle segment is intended for advanced users - amateur or professional photographers (as an additional camera or for video shooting). Full frame DSLRs are typically designed for the professional commercial photographer.
Do not forget that when buying a DSLR, you usually need to buy additional lenses. For constant use in everyday life, you can purchase a universal lens. For most manufacturers, these are "glasses" with a focal length of 18-70 mm. For portraits, lenses with a distance of 50 and 85 mm are ideal, landscapes are usually shot at wide-angle - 10-20 mm.
The manufacturer does not really matter when choosing a SLR camera, since at the moment almost all manufacturers are “head to toe”. If budget is of the essence, it is better to choose Canon, whose cameras and lenses are orders of magnitude cheaper than Nikon. Fuji, Pentax and other manufacturers have good camera performance, but fewer manufactured accessories and lenses.
Choosing a mirrorless
Mirrorless cameras are a good choice for experienced photography enthusiasts. These cameras have an electronic viewfinder and an interchangeable lens system, which allows you to take almost the same high-quality pictures as on DSLRs, but at the same time do not deny yourself the comfort due to the heavy weight and size of SLR cameras. Mirrorless cameras are compact, comfortable and very stylish looking, suitable for "quick" shots on travel, in shooting sports events. The budget of such cameras is 15-30 thousand, they are produced by almost all major manufacturers of photographic equipment.
Choosing a "soap dish"
Digital cameras are the easiest and most affordable option. The cost of a modern travel "soap dish", which can take a large number of pictures while traveling or just during life, starts from 2000 rubles. Digitizers are convenient for people whose work is associated with instant image capture, since such a technique is lightweight, easy to carry, and can be hidden in a pocket or bag.
