Ok, everyone I got the point...no weddings until I get some experience! I totally agree, thank you for your input! I really had no idea! I am very thankful for all of you giving me your advise. I will heed it and not ruin anyone's special day! I just want to find a camera that costs around $400 that is quick and good zoom, and can be used indoors and outdoors, and I can learn what I don't know. Love to all of you who cared enough to give me your opinion! Thanks so much.
Thank you that is great information. You are so right, I don't know what I don't know. A friend of mine is getting married for the second time, and she doesn't have much money; so I offered to take pics for her. She will pay for printing them, and just give a gift offering. Just trying to get the best idea of what would work. I like the idea of being a second camera to a professional. Might look into that. Thank you again. :)
I am looking for an upgrade from my point and shoot camera to a DSLR. I have a $400 limit. I mostly take sunrise pics on the beach, and some portraits. Looking into shooting weddings this summer. Would appreciate experienced suggestions.
