Is 500 enough to start taking pics? I need a cam so I can take pics like yall

$500 to start yes that's enough but what do you want to take pictures of?

Pretty much everything(food, sports, art)

Well then 2 Questions:

- What would be the Most you want to Capture? because $500 can get you in the door but not the best of any range of specialties.

- What size are your hands? (Trust me I'm asking this for a good reason)

Nope and yes you can use those lenses.

500 will get you a Nikon D3300 which is pretty okay. Do you need the cam right now or can you wait until tax season to bump up that budget a lil bit more?

I know I'm waiting on my refund to grab a full frame cam, not sure if i'm gonna get the 750 or 610

well you have options if you want to make images like those it's mostly going to come down to technique more so than the camera you use 

1. Pick you brand (Canon, Nikon, Sony)

2. Pick Your Body

UPK and Shaze coming through with those dope pics. Really nice brah's.

Nah, in my Ricoh GR IV, it's set to RAW only. The Pro X2 supports RAW, but I don't know why it was initially sending over super compressed images. I'm talking 640 x 480... I somehow got it to transfer the full sizes now. We'll see how everything goes when my GR V comes in today.

Anyone interested in a Ricoh GR IV?

The compression comes from the inability of the phone to handle raw files

Thanks, man. I finally realized that when it was doing the same thing with my that just came in. First thing I tried. Noticed the raw was all kinds of messed up and jpg was crisp.

i have the 610 and i love it. I just bought a battery grip the other day. I heard the 750 is a beast. the 610 is basically an entry level full frame camera. That's why i bought it.

 

[Fong$tarr]

Its weird how the entry level full frames are just full frames with a lack of support with the auto focus and ISO but those little things literally cost that much more.

I just watched this and literally they just stressed the difference is in the focus. I am sort of an focus snob and hate how cameras that cost over a $1000 can't nail images right but if I was on a budget, I would totally go D610 and get a lens instead.

LOL 500 is what I'm willing to spend.

If I were you I'd look for a used/refurb entry level body and use that extra dough towards a better lens than a kit lens.

 

[sharkin]

It's usually difficult for me to find appreciation for photography as an art form, but I saw the Duane Michals exhibit at the Carnegie Museum of Art recently.

Ho-Le-CRAP

this guy is a genius

 

[goste187]

I like it, but how did he go from being outside, to the knife reflecting to an inside stair well?

 

[sharkin]

Lol now I wish I would have picked a better picture 

He's got so many of these sequences, individual shots with super-imposed images, and anecdotes to tell stories.

 

[vapormercury]

what do you think guys

secondhand sigma 35mm 1.4 canon for 660$ or new one for 845$?

thx guys

 

[mjbetch]

I need to get back into street photography. Can't wait to use this bad boy on the left. Any takers for the one on the right? If you like street photography, either one of these are a must have.

yea that 610 is definetly a winner, i'm fighting the urge to "keep up" with this guy out here who just got a 610 and get the 700 or 750 just to have a "better" camera. I know the difference isn't major but yea, I wanna act like mine is better lol

 

[putting in work]

Okay guys I'm back...

I think I'm going to stick with the Nikon D5300 my chick got me for Xmas.

I've read reviews and it seems decent.

Still think she paid too much but whatever.

I just want to take high end good pics of my kicks to sell them off.

Take pics of random stuff and me and her together... don't know if I'm willing to bring a DSLR cam with me on vacation though.

I also want to film video of POV style homegrown video's so hopefully this camera can meet those requirements.

Will be back to bother you guys on advice and how to's and what to do's.
