hey everyone, I am new to this forum and its officaly my first post :-D woohoo
Ok i will start photography school next year, which is awesome, i am not a pro tho very far from that. I have a budget from 500 to 1000$ - i would like to buy a 35 mm slr camera and a lens to practice and play around before i actualy start! I really was hoping someone could help me out! I was hoping to take great B&W pics!
I was thinking of buying a used nikon f80 or the canon elan - is that a good choice? or should i buy new or another camera would better to start!
Also maybe someone can help me out for the lens choice because i am totally clueless... I know i like to do close ups (you know a detailed object and a blurry background). I will be mostly be taken pictures in the city and other stuff like that. I am not into landscape and wide fields yet, but ill give it a try when i get the chance!
OHH another quick questions is it better to put a little bit more money into a body camera and less for the lens or it is better to buy a good lens and buy an average camera?thx
