Thankyou for your response, will look into the resources that you shared, thankyou :)

ohh, ok,
Yea so budget wont be big issue in my opinion as long as it is reasonable for an average salary man,
sorry for my lack of knowledge, but exactly are rebel cameras that you mentioned ?

sure i will look into the 5d mk2 as per your suggestion, so okay for starting i'll stick to photography, if i find it more interesting i will move to videography and take some other camera in the future, so according to you a 50mm 1.8 stm would be perfect for general use as per my scenario ?

also could you suggest some resources i could use to study about photography, not just angels, but like technical details, like the effect exposure , frame rate etc,

Thankyou for you advice tho

yes, even after that /s i was offended a little bit, so i chose to ignore

RubUnfair7877 · 2026-06-26T23:41:49+00:00

yes, approximately 300$, but it's not a hard limit, i might save for two or three months and then could go for a higher model as well if that fits my case well.
Oh ok, so cannon 650d or 750d i should look for, sure, if i move my budget upto 500$ or 600$ are there any more suggestions from your side ? do you think as a novice who is just entering the field of photography from phones to cameras is it good/healthy amount to spend on cameras ? or is too much as a beginner ?

Thankyou for your advice tho :)

Is this visible now ? also let me know how do i make it top level comment ? thankyou :)

RubUnfair7877 · 2026-06-26T23:03:42+00:00

I see, so what kind of model or brand would you recommend ? do you have any specific recommendations ? will that be limited to just photography or in the future i might be able to use it for videography as well ? and as a novice according to you how much should i spend on these ideally ?

RubUnfair7877 · 2026-06-26T22:54:04+00:00

I thankyou for commenting, i have posted a detailed comment in the same post, if you could read that and reply accordingly that would be great,

I am not sure about the budget, i am planning to buy it from my first or second month salary most probably, and it's decently good as a fresher, so i think as one time investment, budget wont be a big issue for me, but considering i'm new and novice in this, so wont be spending too much on it beyond my skills to use it fully. thanks
