What equipment should I buy for photography introduction?

Photography is like a girl's makeup. People who don't understand always think that buying a powder cake and a lipstick is enough, but they don't know that there are many "necessities".

(1) basic equipment

Basic equipment is the simplest and most needed equipment.

It will be assumed that photographers should devote themselves to the world of SLR cameras with great revolutionary enthusiasm.

1, camera body

The entry-level camera has been introduced before, and it should be considered according to your own budget, and it is the kind of body that you'd better use for three years without upgrading.

An entry-level or intermediate DSLR SLR camera (APS-C format is enough, you don't need to buy one from Quan Huafu when you study).

For example, Canon 60D, Nikon 7000 and Sony A66.

Like the micro-camera mentioned yesterday, you can also try it. This kind of camera is relatively light, but it will be slightly worse in focusing, lens support and overall feeling. Suitable as a secondary camera, shooting on weekdays.

2, the basic lens

Photographers around Miao Miao once told me that actually, for beginners, a set of lenses can bring good results. For APS-C frame fuselage, the lens focal length of 18-55mm or 18- 105mm is enough for learning.

If it is your first SLR, you can actually buy a set of cameras directly.

3. Basic accessories

Blow-clean the lens and photosensitive element.

Lens pen-used to clean the lens.

Camera bag-recommended for photographers who like mountain climbing/traveling.

moistureproof box

Battery backup

Spare memory card

(B) Beginners can start with the types of lenses.

1, large aperture fixed focus

In fact, Miao Miao thinks that as long as you try to take a portrait with a large aperture lens, you will fall in love with it immediately. Such as f/ 1.4, f/2.8, etc. It can make you easily shoot the shallow depth of field effect of "clear before and blurred after", and shooting in low light environment is also very awesome.

50mm f/ 1.4 is a large aperture fixed-focus lens. If it is cheaper, consider f/ 1.8 aperture.

The point is that a large aperture fixed focus lens is really much cheaper than a large aperture zoom lens. As a beginner, you must not miss it.

2. Super wide-angle lens

Ultra-wide-angle lenses such as 12mm and 14mm have a very wide field of view, which will distort the photos and often take impactful landscape photos.

If Miao Miao goes on a trip, she will definitely take such a lens.
