What is a good digital camera for a beginner photographer?
I am really interested in photography and I am thinking about giving it a shot, but at this point I know nothing about digital cameras. Any suggestions on a good digital camera for a beginner photographer would be great. I have a very plain and simple dig. cam but I think I need something with a little more quality. Thanks a bunch.
The camera I suggest is a bit more in features than just point and shoot. But it is a point and shoot type. It’s the Canon PowerShot A570 IS. It has an image stabilizer in case you have shaky hands, aperture/shutter priority, takes 2 rechargeable batteries and the price is quite good . Can be bought between $155-$170+a memory card. Anyone who buys a digital camera has to buy a memory card. I suggest for a 7 megapixel camera which this camera is , get at least 1 GB memory card. The camera has a viewfinder which won’t drain your batteries like an LCD screen does. It’s 4X optical zoom.
This camera and a memory card should cost you no more than $190- to $200-. Minimum for an SLR( which is really getting into photography) is about $500-a SLR kit.
So you have to ponder the thought, do I have the time and money to really get into this hobby(possibly business) and start out with a SLR camera.
Take a trip to your local library and read about different features on cameras in Nov’07 Consumer Reports. Also check out Website dpreview.com for reviews of many cameras and prices.
