How to judge the quality of SLR camera

1, look at the appearance

The method is to take photos with F22 aperture in A mode and watch photos on the computer. If there is no small stain on the blue sky, the sensor is clean. The sensor of the new machine must be clean and stained, that is, the camera is kept or used carelessly;

Extended data

For beginners, only three factors need to be considered.

First, the price.

If you want to buy a camera, first of all, you need to consider what the highest price you can accept. After all, the price of cameras now ranges from thousands to tens of thousands of yuan, and the price span is very large. You still need to consider this before you can recommend a camera at the corresponding price.

Second, the purpose.

Cameras have different uses. Some people buy a camera to learn photography, some to record the moments of life, and some to save face ... In short, the use will determine the degree to which you use the camera. If you buy an expensive camera but haven't used it several times, it's a bit of a loss.

So when you decide to buy a camera, you must think clearly about what you are thinking before you choose to buy it.

The third point is the type.

At present, the mainstream camera types are divided into SLR, micro-camera and portable camera. These three camera types are different in size and operation, so the camera experience is different. If you pursue manipulation and focus on photography, it is best to choose SLR; If you prefer fashionable appearance and clear picture quality, it is recommended to choose micro-single; If you like to record your life with you, then choose to buy a portable camera.
