In The Market For A New Digital Camera?
When you walk towards my cubicle at work, you are greeted by a 16×20 print of the Daibutsu (Big Buddha) I shot. I get the usual “what camera did you use to take that shot,” followed up by the “what camera should I buy since I am in the market now?” After this happened for the third time I realized I was basically giving out the same advice to everyone. Now I am sharing this helpful assistance with the masses.
Let’s first start out with my background in photography. A friend of mine got me interested in shooting during our off-time. I bought a Sony DSC-V1 and was also using a friend’s Canon EOS-3 film camera with slide film. I was torn between the ease of use on digital and the system flexibility and lens choice on the SLR. After a few weeks doing this balancing act I decided to purchase a DSLR.
