These are the moments when eenie-meenie-miney-mo’s are completely useless. I mean, you aren’t shooting a bullet in the dark here, am I right?
In choosing your “dream” camera, you have to keep these in mind:
Necessity: WHY Do you need a camera? Are you just gonna buy it to brag it? Or do you want to capture the true essence or reality, the mood, the aura of every single aspect of life, and post it up on Flickr, making everyone else with a boring old digital camera green with envy? We all know that holding one of these babies makes you feel HIGH &MIGHTY (I know it makes me) but do you really need it?Cost: How much money have you set aside to actually buy this contraption? Is it worth it? Can you still afford dinner right after buying this?Guarantee: Is it a sturdy camera? Will it last long? Does the guarantee cover meteor damage?Value: How will you treasure your mechanical child? Will you leave him on the shelf for the dust bunnies to devour? Or will you give TLC (Tender Loving Care) and keep him with you 24/7?Favoritism: Which brand do you like?So, there you have it, your NCGVF’s of choosing a camera. (Yes, I know it’s not very catchy)
Here are some added Do’s and dont’s:
DO
Buy new lenses, they help a lot in professional photography.Choose carefully amongst the cameras, and make sure to research before buying anything.Make sure you aren’t getting ripped off.Not give into peer pressure. (If you’re still awake, you’d notice this should be under Don’t. I’m not an idiot.)Pursue this career with livelihood.Make sense in what you are buying.READ THE MANUAL [exclamation mark][exclamation mark][exclamation mark][one][one][eleventy one]DON’T
Be careless.Play guessing games on buying these things.Buy a camera to impress your girlfriend/boyfriend (It’ll turn out HORRIBLE)Be heartless to your cold-unfeeling mechanical son.Live a lie.Go hunting for ghosts… Or maybe this is a do, if you’re a paranormal investigator, then do. If you aren’t, then don’t.Don’t go swimming with this camera, unless you have an underwater cover.DropBlendDon’t- Seriously, I could come up with a MILLION dumb suggestions, and you’ll never get the point. Just don’t do whatever you think is bad.Author’s note:
I suggest Canon as a starting brand, except it may be a bit too expensive… But don’t take my word for it.
