Ask, Watch, Go to Camera stores and try gear.
Welcome to the site.
That's nice. Thank you whoever you are
Many camera stores have knowledgeable personnel who ARE MORE THAN HAPPY TO HELP YOU...selling equipment is their business. They will most likely want a happy customer so they will work with you to get what you need. Renting also helps so that you can get a feel of the equipment and make a decision based on your shooting needs.
I just started a photography course with NYIP and they told me to get a canon t3i if I wanted canon. I already had a t3i so I guess I'm set. My wife paid for the course and deemed it my Christmas present. And away I go! Any thoughts, love to hear from any one.
Good luck with course and shoot,shoot and shoot. Merry Christmas!
thanks more than you could know
I was a professional photographer and used mainly a Nikon 'something' Photomic _ the one that comes all apart in pieces - and a Nikkor 105mm 1.25 but shot mainly for myself as I moved around so often. Very serious about it.
One thing is very confusing to me and that I liked a 'fixed' lens and shot mainly slides/transparencies and a fixed lens was known to be clearer
Digital is another language and everything so tiny
