How do beginners of photography match the appropriate lens and body? How should Xiaobai choose?

Before you buy a camera, you must find out what a camera is to you. Toys, tools or props.

Looking back, the original intention of buying a camera at that time was to record my life, to freeze the time of flow, and to carry more when traveling. The size, weight, battery life and other factors of the camera were my key concerns.

First, how to choose a camera? Understand the camera type

Card camera

Refers to a compact fixed lens camera, which is small in size and easy to carry. You can put it in your pocket and take it out at any time, but it can't replace other focal segments except the camera's own zoom, and its endurance is poor.

Micro single

Mirrorless camera, SLR camera has no reflector inside, the body will be smaller than SLR, and the camera will take pictures electronically, so the micro-single camera is not as good as SLR in power consumption and battery life. But it's smaller and easier to use, and continuous shooting is faster!

single lens reflex

Optical framing is reflected to the viewfinder through the pentaprism in the machine every time. The price of camera and lens is relatively cheap, and the battery life is better than that of micro-single. The camera is bulky and has poor portability. If it is not professional, it is really not recommended.

countershaft

Two different lenses are used for framing and photography, which have parallax, but the advantage of paraxial is small, very small.

Second, how to choose a camera frame? Frame is the sensor behind the camera lens, which is divided into APS frame, Quan Huafu frame, M43 frame, medium frame and large frame.

The larger the frame, the more imaging details, the purer the photo, the less noise, the higher the price, the larger the volume and the more expensive the lens. The smaller the frame, the opposite is true.

It is recommended to choose a machine with a larger frame as far as possible, and the picture quality will be better.

We usually buy APS-C format or full-frame cameras.

In the case of controllable budget, try to choose Quan Huafu. If the money is not bad or too heavy, the medium format is also good.

Third, how to choose a camera lens? 1. Look at the brand

It is best to use the same brand for the fuselage and lens. Because the lens bayonet of different brands is different, it may be troublesome to connect the adapter ring or not.

Look at the aperture

In most cases, the larger the aperture of the lens, the better, and it is easier to take blurred photos with a large aperture.

Zoom lens, aperture should be constant. A constant aperture lens is much better than a variable aperture lens.

Large aperture lenses are generally heavier and more expensive, depending on your budget.

3. Look at the zoom ratio

Zoom ratio refers to the maximum focal length divided by the minimum focal length. Generally speaking, anything below 3 is better.

It should be noted that the larger the zoom factor, the worse the imaging, so it is best to choose a fixed focus lens.
