1) How does one select a camera? Like Sony alone releases so many different full frame cameras, how does one decide which is suitable?
a) What are the main key points people look at when picking one from a same series? e.g Sony Full Frame series
b) What are the main feature that have people pick over different brands? Sony, Canon, Nikon
2) I was using Samsung S8 to take pictures all the time before I got my first camera Sony A5100.
I understand that S8 pictures are more saturated than A5100 due to nature of Samsung software, and I can edit RAW pics of A5100 later on for same color as S8, but one thing that I don't understand is:
- Why is it that when shooting on extremely bright day, S8 is able to balance out the foreground and background, showing blue sky as intended and able to see subject clearly the same time, but when using A5100, no matter what settings I set, faster shutter speed(even at max 1/4000), aperture over 5.6+ or even maximum, ISO 100, it still will be either a blown up background if I focus on subject (white sky instead of blue) or if I focus on background, blown up subject (totally black) and good background.
I tried to lower the exposure, but that will just make the whole thing darker instead of specific spot.
How should I go about this?
Thanks!
