DSLR Camera

All of the photos so far are taken with my phone. You don’t have to have a fancy camera to take nice photos. It’s more about knowing how to take an aesthetically pleasing looking image. But I’ve always wanted a dslr camera of my own. I took the photography classes in high school and that is when my interest began. I’ve always loved art and cool photos I’m definitely a more artistic person, but that was the first time I was taught the correct way to use the cameras and to take good looking photos. My interest continued to grow until senior year when I was taking pictures constantly. It was a hobby I was pursuing and even began posting my photos on social media and really caring about the kinds of photos I was taking.

Fast forward to now I could finally buy my own camera althoughy phone takes nice pictures there is something so enjoyable about using a camera to take pictures. Having that control to focus on certain objectives and blur others, to zoom, to have high quality images is what I was longing for from a camera. I’ve always loved Nikons. Some people like Canon some like Nikon I decided to go with a Nikon. I did some research on good beginner camera and talked to the workers at Best Buy. It’s important to do some research before purchasing something as pricey as a camera to make sure you get what you want. I settled on a Nikon D5600 because it has a few more features than the D3400 that I originally was going to go with. I bought a nicer lens to go along with the camera as well because the 18-140mm costed less when purchasing with the body. An 18-140mm lens is kind of that everything lens for a beginner you don’t have to change out lenses to zoom it has regular image distance with the 18mm all the way up to a zoom of 140mm. I am so excited to start using my new camera to take photos!! I am going to play around with the settings and find out what I like. I will continue to share how the camera is working for me!
