Hello,
I just signed up and thought this may be a nice place to ask some questions.
I have a lot of different products that I sell on the web. I've been using my phone for a long time now for product photography. After I take the images with my phone, I use Gimp to modify them. I typically adjust the curves, color enhance, and sharpness.
I thought it's now time to move up to the next level. I bought a DSLR camera last night. It is a low end DSLR (Cannon Rebel EOS T7), but at least it's a DSLR and should be better than my phone. My only intent is to use this camera for photos of my products so I figured the low end should suffice.
I'm starting to learn the camera a little bit after a day.
My question is this:
When I'm using a higher quality camera such as a DSLR should I still need to do modifications with Gimp when they come out of the Camera? Or is the camera good enough that I can pull production ready photos directly out of the camera? With exception to cropping of course.
I guess what I am trying to do is set my expectations first. Therefore I have somewhat a goal to shoot for.
Thanks in advance!
