Finding The Right Camera

[🪦 gega ●]

I use Nikon slr's. Megapixels are really a marketing gimmick to get you to buy a camera. You really only need at least 5 megapixels to print an image. If you plan on using an image on a poster-size print out, you may be interested in a 10 megapixel camera.I have the Nikon D50, which is only 6.1 megapixels. But the image sensor is perfect for indoor or low light situations, which is what I mostly shoot. Also, I have lenses that allow indoor/low light images to be sharp.If you hate the way your on-camera flash works (washes out the face or doesn't allow the image to capture), you may want to consider off camera lighting. Setting up lights off camera (lamps, work lights) with normal lighting or even color gels gives dramatic effects. This kind of lighting may help your subjects with your current camera.Like everyone else stated, a tripod is really helpful for indoor or low light shots. Hope this helps...
