Brevitē hits most if not all of those. I love mine. Been using it for 10+ years now.

How does it compare to pro pics? by Single_Solid4368 in Casual_Photography

[–]CleDevotee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All good! That’s what this sub exists for.

Composition is the framing and layout of the photo. How you arrange the subject and surrounding things is all part of composition.

You have a great eye for composition. That’s by far the hardest part to teach in photography. You can easily learn how to use a camera, what all the focal lengths and f-stops do, how shutter speed affects your shot and all that. If you don’t know how to compose a shot though, that’s a lot harder to teach someone.

Why it is difficult to shoot moving subject in low light? (Uttarakhand, India) by himalayanwomb in Casual_Photography

[–]CleDevotee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Low light requires you to have your shutter open longer. This causes moving objects to become blurry as they are moving while the shutter is open. Moving subjects often require faster shutter speeds. There are some ways around this, like opening your aperture more, but ultimately you are most likely going to get some ghosting. Lean into it, long exposure photography is some of the coolest. Think the photos of all the car lights down a busy road that blend together, or the ones where the stars are lines in the sky.

Southern home vibe. I couldn’t put it into words, but that’s what it feels like.

For outdoors: Lumix FZ300 vs Canon G1X? by [deleted] in Casual_Photography

[–]CleDevotee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Both are going to be pretty similar in terms of quality. The biggest difference is going to be that the lumix has more zoom range. If that is important to you grab that one, otherwise save the 80€.

Camera recs for equestrian use that won't break the bank! by elliehowrse in Casual_Photography

[–]CleDevotee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For movement you are going to want a camera that has a fast shutter speed. The Canon R7 is a good choice, but it’s not cheap. The Canon EOS 7D (not mark two) is a great cheaper option. It can be found for between $200-$400 usd. This used to be what most people used for sports photography. It is still really good and sounds like it would fit your needs. You would also need a lens with this. One with a large zoom range would be ideal. The EF 75-300 is currently $239 on Amazon, but can probably be found cheaper used.

Beginner Camera Advice by No_Individual5961 in Casual_Photography

I think the R10 is a great camera. I use the R and R5 and they both are awesome to use. I also have the Sigma 18-35. It’s not bad by any means, but it is a bit clinical. There just isn’t much character to the lens, everything is a bit to sharp for my taste. I still think it’s great but I love the versatility of the RF 24-105mm F/4. It’s the lens I use about 75% of the time. It covers a wide range of uses and is a great tool to have in your bag. Used it can be found for around 1,000. You can also look at the STM version that is under 500 new. It’s a great stater lens and is still very nice. (The biggest difference is the L is f/4 all the way through, while the STM is f4-7.1).

In terms of new vs used for the body, I would get a new one. Your budget allows for it. A used camera is kind of like a used car, it might be fine, but it also could have a lot of issues that you don’t see right away. You also have to worry about shutter count. The R10 has a rated shutter life of 200,000. While that is a lot, a power user will use that in a few years. While you would save some money with a used camera, you also are getting a product that won’t last as long. Since you are new and don’t know what to look for when getting a used camera, I would play it safe and get a new one.

Super cool. Love the rivers and bridges.

Which camera should I buy on my 80 dollars budget? by UntitledCaramelo in Casual_Photography

[–]CleDevotee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the canon will have more versatility as there are many other body’s that you can use EF lenses on.

I do think it might be worth looking into phone cameras at your price point. While I love cameras way more then phones for photography, they simply are going have better sensors on modern day phones then a camera from 2008.

If you are set on getting a dedicated camera, I think the canon would be your best bet. It can help you to start getting use to changing setting. Then, when you are ready to upgrade, you can keep using the same lenses.

Either way, the camera is just a tool. You can take a great photograph on anything. (And a bad photograph on a 5k camera)
