A Tilt Shift lens would be very helpful to you in food photography. You can get a good one from $1,200-$2,200.
You'll probably want an off camera flash or two, so that's another $200-$500 a piece.
It would be nice to have a reliable remote trigger system as well, so tack on another $250-$500.
If you buy a camera body with a kit lens, such as a Canon XSi, you're looking at $600-800.
The kit lens is pretty soft, and soon you will want sharper images, so the next lens could be anywhere from $500 and up into the thousands.
By the way, I want to be a chef, so could you give me some great recipes, and tips on how to cook, so I don't have to pay resaurants to feed me, when I can do it myself, just as easily, and cheaper?
Hi Bitter Jeweler...
Easy... Go to epicurious.com or watch the food network, you'll find lots of information, just by following the easy recipes and free advice, you'll be cooking nice meals very soon,you'll be a good home cook quick and easy, and if you see that you really want to be chef but in a budget, get a part time job at a restaurant as a cook help and you'll learn a lot, not spending money, actually you'll make a few bucks while you learn... And after that, if you see that your really enjoy proffesional cooking, you can get promoted to cook, then to sous chef and within some years you'll be a chef... Or if you have the money, you can go to the culinary institut of america and that will shorten your learning curve.
You see how easy I could answer your question without being rude?... Next time don't bother, I can't care less about your sarcasm or bitterness as your nickname suggest, if I were a newbie in the forums scene, it will be very discouraging to be answered on my first question by a jerk , but since I spend quite a few hours in the internet, I know that the democracy of the web has a price to be paid... Dealing with the bitter, the narrow minded, the angry and the know-it-all.
Have a nice day.
Luis
Bitter wasn't being a jerk he was being honest, i'm sorry but you are being the jerk if you think you can get pro shots for $600-$800
Over here no good restuarant has pictures on menu's the only places that have them are places that serve crap like Mc Donalds, Burger King, Subway
Gordon Ramsay would burn them
Crap like Subway??? Them's fightin' words!layball:
