Hello everyone,
came across this forum when i was browsing randomly, noticed this is a very friendly/helpful forum. Well, i don't know if this is the right place to ask this question but if it isn't, then the mods please free to delete/move this thread.
I'm a 20 year old, from India who will be moving to Leeds (UK) in another month. I'm very passionate about photography, but didn't have enough dough to get a camera since i was involved with music (read: buying musical equipment) and i've realized that i can not stay without a camera for longer. I would like to buy a beginner camera to start composing pictures.
Here are my requirements:
> the camera has to be Digital, i love analog photography and the dark room technique, although i don't have the finances to support analog camera setup
> I want control over aperture and shutter speed
> about 6-7 mpx
> I'm mostly going to be taking some pics of everything (people, landscapes etc) so i'm thinking a 35 mm lens?
I was looking at the Olympus SP510 for starters. Do you suggest any other camera? i would be forever in debt of your advice.
Thank you for reading.
