Why do you say photography burns money? Do you need to buy your own equipment for work?

The main reason for photography is that the equipment is expensive. When you go to work, of course, you don't have to buy equipment yourself, but as a photographer, you should be equipped with at least three lenses to take close-range, middle-range and long-range shots. Each lens corresponds to a different purpose, which is the most basic, not to mention other special lenses and auxiliary equipment. It takes tens of W for the lens to be complete. Not to mention the camera.
