Good workshops are worth attending. Paid RM 1.5k for a 3 day workshop this year.
As for basic classes, normally camera brands offer beginner classes. I've seen classes organized by Canon, Nikon and Sony. There are other classes too, or simple seminar / talk. I'm giving a talk on Saturday on food photography. |

Yes, but it's a gamble if you just go buy a lens without knowing if you really need the lens; and lenses are not cheap.

sticking with kit lens for a while is a good start, one can easily realize what kind of focal length often used. then only decide to get one that used the most especially in low light, one of the main reason why prime lens are made.
travel usually involve a lot of wide end 27mm-35mm for taking "what you see" at the scene, like street view, buildings, scene, landscape. occasion zoom is needed when the scene gets too crowded when you want to get closer to the subject like statue or stall or people or buildings from far away where you need to spend time walking to the place (time is precious during travel!). you can't beat kit lens for travel, which is what most people use their camera for. prime lens are useful for night strolling or indoor events or like what many parents do - shooting your running kids. so choose wisely. |
