1. Don’t buy expensive equipment.
If you are just beginning, investing in an expensive reflex camera is unreasonable. A camera is a “box with knobs” – our skills are more important. If we don’t have expierience or skills, an expensive camera won’t help us make good pictures. When we decide that photography is something more and our compact camera is not enough, then we can buy a reflex camera.


So I figeured that out, just wondering what would be a good / cheap camara to get for me.
I've been doing art; Sketch, paint and doodle. I've done a lot of digital work but now I want to start making photo's cause with photographity you can capture movement with just one shot!

So, help me out... I reall got the love for art just have no experience with this section etc ^___^

there are starter DSLR´s around such as the 1000D, which barely cost ALOT more than a good compact camera nowadays. The 1000D is around 350€ here in germany. So I guess that´ll be around 400$, since cameras and equipment tend to be alot cheaper in the U.S.. That is if you have played around with cameras already for a while and now want to get into it more seriously. If you really have no clue about the art of photography and all the technics that are involved with it, or of the use of cameras, you´d be best off getting a nice compact cam. You can discover if photography is something you wanna get serious with, or not. Even if you decide not to, you can always use your compact cam for your everyday life snapshots and stuff.
for a compact cam I´d suggest you to go for the new Canon or Sony Models. I gtg, might come back to that thread later.
