Mobile Gadgets: D-SLR camera for the ugly times ahead
I am considering the purchase of a D-SLR digital camera. I bet I am not the only one. I know that the economy is tanking and that is one reason I am making these plans. I believe that it may get to the point that we cannot buy products that we want. Possibly they will not be available, they will cost more and the shipping may become even more unreasonable.
Since I am not a professional photographer and I do not know a lot about D-SLR cameras I have learned that these are some things I need to consider:
· I need a full frame camera. This means that I will have a wider range of lenses to choose from because most of them are the same size as a 35mm, which is a common size.
· 10 megapixels should be enough unless I want to sell my photos (I would like to keep the option open)
· I may need to choose between fast action or portrait photography. Some cameras have features like fast frame abilities versus others that are better at detecting facial expressions.
· How much money do I want to spend? Better yet – how much money do I have to spend?
I hope that I am over reacting to the circumstances that are happening all around us. Unfortunately I fear that I am right. At least I will have more opportunities to make some cash and have some fun while waiting for things to get better.
