- Can others edit my Photos
- Photos NOT OK to edit
Hi, I'm completly new here and to photography
I've always been interested in photography, but never had the money to get a nice camera. Well now i think i have my chance
Costco is having a deal on the Nikon D60 right now. For (EDIT) $825 i get (it's $125 off):
I just think it's nice because it comes with two lenses, and i could always get more and i can also get an external flash later on if i need one (instead of just the pop up flash). So i could upgrade it a bit, but it's still a good beginner camera. The kind of photography i am looking to do is maternity and baby photos mostly and maybe some weddings, senior photos and engagment photos.
So what do you think, do you think we should get it? Or do you think that there is a better camera that i could get?
EDIT (also posted below):
Ok, so i went to a camera shop and after talking to the guy a little bit i think i might actually go with a cannon. He said for the kind of photography i want to do, that the Cannon EOS Rebek XTi would be better for me.
Anyways, so i need to do some research more, but i think that is the direction i might go. But who really knows?
