Well I just moved up to DSLR from normal point and shoot. Wanna get this to have some fun, as a hobby when Im stressed. I like playing with gadgets.
Initially was looking at cheap ones, from 1300d to 700d. But I was told Nikon d5600 is a steal with the free 70-300mm lens. At 3.4k, I was told can sell the lens off at even 1.5k. Is d5600 a bit too much for amateur like me
I am wedding photographer and I also travel or walk around to shoot for funInitially was looking at cheap ones, from 1300d to 700d. But I was told Nikon d5600 is a steal with the free 70-300mm lens. At 3.4k, I was told can sell the lens off at even 1.5k. Is d5600 a bit too much for amateur like me
I have 70-200vr2F2.8, a very good lens, but I can say, with this focal range...really seldom use...
Roughly I can say, this lens, contribute less than 5% of my trip photo...
Really dun think is a good idea to get the 70-300 by paying so much additional
(Unless you want to get it and sell it directly)
If really want a lens that able to cover most of the scenario during travel, 18-135 (around this focal will do) is the best
If want nice bokeh, quality photo, need get fix aperture lens such as 24-70F2.8, 16-35F4...etc, but I think this is too much for you at this moment, too expensive
Another option of nice bokeh and quality is get prime lens, but you need to get the prime that with motor (D5XXX series cannot drive prime that without motor)
By seeing your usage (fun and hobby), get D5600 with kits lens(around 18-135) meet your needs
But, kit lens usually cant produce outstanding nice bokeh photo
(you might been inspire by some photo online that tot of getting any DSLR then can produce that kind of photo, I am one of the victim last time...)
Ofcourse, you can buy other brand such as Canon, but if possible, stick with Nikon or Canon, easier for you to sell it off when you quite photography next time(If)
Have you ever think of get Mirrorless? Mirrorless such as Sony A6000 is having DSLR sensor as well, smaller body, and light. From what I see from the pass Thaipusam at Batu cave, many user change to use mirrorless already.
