I’m getting ready to take digital photography classes and am hoping to make it profitable for myself by taking pictures for weddings, reunions, and would love to get into taking some portraits. I don’t want to spend thousands of dollars to start, but want a good camera that will meet the requirements of what I want to do with it? The more I research, the more confused I am becoming…..please help me!!!

Before digital days, I would have said an 80mm lens. However, with the conversion, now the digital lens I’d recommend is a 50mm lens.

When I say not so expensive, I mean $1000 or less with a lens…

I have a Canon EOS Rebel X S film camera which I bought around 1996. Is it possible to use the auto focus lenses from this camera on a newer, digital Canon? I do not see anywhere on the camera body or the lenses where it says either FD or EF, so unless you can tell me where to find these markings, that won’t help. Thanks in advance for your help.

I do not have a user booklet. The photos have small gray spots on them, which are caused by dirt on the sensor I think. I am not an expert, and I really don’t know how to clean them off. And no user guide to help me! Many thanks to anyone who replies

What is the best setting? Canon Xsi DSLR camera for low light indoor situations. But want vivid colors to come out. For example: At a club, very low light but want the vivid purple or red light to come out in the back ground. At the same time want my friends faces to come out. Ive seen this many times.
Please excuse the newbie question as im new at this. thanks

The first electronic camera 30 years ago, the images stored on tape! Fifteen years later, digital cameras, $ 30,000 a few brave photographers used their photos on a large hard disk, which was connected to the camera by a cable. Today, it is much better, because you can use tiny semiconductor devices called flash memory to store your photos until you transfer to a computer for permanent storage. A digital SLR false has two components that you want to know:

Yes, I’d say that’s true about any camera. It shouldn’t take long. While it’s charging, you can read through your manual.
And format your memory card!

I’m buying a nikon d60 hopefully soon and I dont know whether to buy at the store or ebay. I’ve never bought off ebay before, I’m only 13, but they sell the camera I could buy at the store for like 50$ or 100$ cheaper PLUS like extra lenses and stuff, but idk whether to trust ebay and that the stuff is new? Should I buy at the store or ebay.
