How should novices learn to get started with cameras?

First, learn online photography related articles and equipment knowledge, and get a preliminary understanding of what photography is all about.

Then, according to your own ability, try to buy a camera and a better machine to avoid changing machines soon. One machine and one mirror are enough, so there is no need to be greedy.

Then go out and shoot, pay attention to people and things around you, pay attention to observation and practice photography.
