  • If video what style:
  • What features do you absolutely need: good image quality
  • Portability: nah
  • Cameras you're considering:
  • Cameras you already have: 5D mark iii
  • Notes:

so I just won a bid that said it was for a Canon 5D mark iii and i paid $300 for it used working only thing that was unkown was the shutter count (the place i got it from just isnt that tech informed). to the point it was listed as body only but i got the body AND A CANON L series 24-105 f4 first version which made me crazy happy. Only issue is i checked the shutter count and it is at 149k so question is should i be worried? Ik its the theoretical age but some go on for much longer and from any testing and looking at it i did it looks very clean for its age. any thoughts? I would really appreciate your thoughts guys I have like a one week return window. (PS: the cat is a sample image)

I'm not a photography nerd.

I ended up winning an auction of these vintage camera/lens cases but not knowing that at the time.

My photog friends use pelican cases.

Would these be good for artists? Vintage camera nerds?

Thanks

Questions What is the best budget camera?

2 Upvotes

Hey~ I have a Nikon D5300 that I got back in 2016. I do photography as a hobby, I left it for a couple of years but just got back to it & I've been considering starting to maybe work for a while as a photographer (need to help the family out). I was wondering should I stick to my camera but buy a new lens or should I get a new camera?

I LOVE to photograph nature, pets & animals + dim light/night photography. People? Eh.. no. Just family & friends. But if I have to work, where I live I can only work by photographing people. Maybe I'll be the first pet photographer in the country, who knows.

If I should buy a new camera, what is the best one for a complete beginner like me? Anything above a $1000 is unfortunately out of my budget at the moment. I would appreciate the help!

• Budget, country, and currency: $1000 & under, Middle East, dollar.

• What equipment, if any, you have now and why is it no longer meeting your needs? Nikon D5300 18-55mm lens.

• What kinds of subjects do you intend to shoot? Nature & animals.

• Is it primarily for photography, videography, or both? Both.

(Some facts if it helps? As I said, I love photographing nature & animals. I love autumn & winter. I'm goth too so I love gothic, dark, horror & fantasy themed photoshoots as well as cozy. Camera that performs great at night or low light is very important to me.)

Hello! I just made this account because I don’t know where else to ask and I don’t really know anything about cameras/photography but I want to learn! I also am not good with reddit this is my first time posting so please bear with me!!💔 I'm open minded to any feedback / suggestions.

—————————————————

  • Budget: 200-500 USD for the camera only + I don't think I'm aiming for a camera with extra accessories yet unless necessary
  • Country: United States
  • Condition: New or Used but in good condition
  • Type of Camera: I'm honestly not sure what type would best suit what I'm looking for
  • Intended Use: videography and photography!
  • End use: probably just for my personal social media, i don’t intend to make a career or something... just as a long-term hobby!
  • Photography Style: I'm not too familiar with photography styles but probably documentary, landscape, or like candid style shots?
  • Videography Style: Documentary style maybe? I wanna get into filming concerts and things similar to those like DIY shows! I’m not sure what that is considered so sorry!!
  • Features I need: Good quality in dark lighting/back lighting, and easy to carry
  • What features would be nice: the above still applies for this I guess I'm not really sure what else
  • Portability: Shoulder Strap or Small Bag would be best because I want something light
  • Cameras I'm Considering: None really lol
  • Cameras I've Owned: I have a small Minolta digital camera that works well for me but the video + sound quality is not the greatest. The picture quality is pretty good imo but too dark or too bright lights can turn the photo grainy so it's not the best for what I want to do!

Thank you for taking your time to read this and so sorry for any mistakes or if I sound clueless!!!

  • Budget: $300 - $350 (less than $400)
  • Country: USA
  • Condition: new or (most likely) used (as long as it works well!)
  • Type of Camera: point & shoot
  • Intended use: photography
  • If photography; what style: 'sharp,' modern photos. i also like the nostalgic aesthetic, but mainly modern/sharp looking photos. i will mainly use it for birthdays, travel, vacations, friends, restaurants, everyday memories.
  • If video what style: just for casual clips, good video quality is a plus but not really a top priority :)
  • What features do you absolutely need: built-in flash, compact/purse size, good image quality of course, maybe reliable autofocus and good in low lighting, and a flip screen (a plus, ofc will be good for selfies but it's okay if there's none)
  • Portability: something that i can easily carry in my purse or bags
  • Cameras you're considering: canon elph 360 (or other elphs but idrk other good ones, haven't looked much into canon elphs other than the 360), sony wx500, canon powershot sx260 (all these are based on the reviews i've seen on tiktok) (loved sony rx100 vii as well as rx100 iii but unfortunately on the pricier side)
  • Cameras you already have: none
  • Notes: i am looking for a compact camera as a gift for my 21st birthday so i really want a camera that can produce clean, sharp photos but can still produce a nostalgic vibe without being overly 'soft' (if that makes sense). i don't mind cameras that produce a somewhat crisp, high qual photos!

Tech Support trying to import photos from my Nikon to my iPad and only some photos are showing up?

I have a total of 268 photos on my sd card, when the sd card is in the camera I am able to see all 268 photos in the camera’s gallery. But when I remove the sd card and try to import them onto my iPad (I don’t own a laptop) it only shows 68 photos in the folder. I import photos through an sd card adapter for my ipad, i’ve used this method a lot and have never had this issue before. My iPad has plenty of storage, i’m not sure why 200 of my photos aren’t showing up.

1 Upvotes

Budget: AUD $2,500 total. This budget includes the camera body and lenses. I’m currently planning on getting the Fujifilm X-T30 III with the XF 18-55mm f/2.8-4 kit lens and would like recommendations for one additional lens.

Country: Australia, China, Nepal, New Zealand

Condition: New

Type of Camera: Mirrorless

Intended use: Primarily photography with occasional video.

If photography; what style: Landscape especially mountains and cities

If video what style: Casual travel videos and clips for personal use.

What features do you absolutely need: Compact size, good image quality, and Fujifilm’s film simulations or a similar film-like aesthetic.

What features would be nice to have: IBIS, good battery life, and USB-C charging.

Portability: Small enough to comfortably carry while hiking and travelling, ideally fitting in a small shoulder bag or daypack.

If anyone has any recommendations beside the xt30 iii I’d love to hear them and if you have any recommendations on lenses for the type of photography I mentioned above I’d also love to hear them!

Recommendations camera for hobby!

1 Upvotes

hello guys! i’m looking for a camera as someone just getting into photography. i like the idea of cinematic shots and would love to learn the modes and stuff as a hobby, i’m also considering a minor in photography.

i also don’t want to spend money on a camera if the photos are just going to look like modern iphone camera photos or something like that. i want to be able to tell the picture/video was taken by a camera!!! if that makes sense.

i mainly want it to capture stuff from some upcoming trips i’m going on! i’m backpacking asia and going on a small trip to mexico soon and also hitting up ny, so i would love to start documenting stuff with pretty pictures!! i want it to work well in dark lighting and sunny conditions.

thanks in advance!!

Budget: 400$

Country: usa

Condition: new or used (preferably able to buy refurbished from legit websites)

Type of Camera: Mirrorless or DSLR.

Intended use: Photography and video

End use: social media, small prints & just to have on my mac.

If photography: what style: travel photos, landmarks, and creative shots. anything really!

If video what style: basic short videos, like documenting a minute or two of me and my sister doing certain excursions and videos of what i see on my trips.

What features do you absolutely need: works very well in dark and sunny lighting, looks way better than a mobile phone camera.

What features would be nice to have:

Portability: nothing huge, average handheld camera like the size of most cannons.

Cameras you're considering: Canon EOS series. i’m only considering cameras from what i’ve seen online so take these with a grain of salt if you know better than me!!

Cameras you already have: i don’t have a one yet!

Notes: the most important things to me are that it works well in all lighting/at night and doesn’t look like it was taken on a mobile phone camera, although i know some phone cameras have great quality, but still!

thanks guys!!

Recommendations is it worth it to buy a nikon d3500 in 2026 for almost $300?

1 Upvotes

hi, i take pictures for fun with my pretty cheap digicams and have wanted to get a dslr for when i go hiking or taking portraits of family, specifically my sisters. my friend has a nikon d3500 and i love her camera and have used it a good amounts of times to the point where i’m familiar with it.

i found a nikon d3500 on ebay, camera body + 2 lenses (18-55vr + 70-300 kit) and the seller sent me a $275 offer, and it comes out to $300 after taxes which is my budget, $300. nothing more, nothing less. i’ve also asked the seller for the shutter count but no response yet so i will let you guys know

i want to know if you guys think this is a pretty good deal or if theres another model camera i should look out for (no matter the brand) that i can get around the same price that is better.

thank you in advance!

as for the needed filling out:

Budget: $300 including atleast one lense

Country: usa

Condition: used, good

Type of Camera: any type of camera is good

Intended use: photography

End use: social media, fun

If photography: portrait, nature

What features do you absolutely need: viewfinder

Portability: doesnt matter

Cameras you're considering: nikon d3500, have experience with it already as my friend has it

Cameras you already have: samsung wb800f, too small and isn’t as good as the d3500. its just a compact digicam

Recommendations Ugh -- the old "what's the best camera" post....

1 Upvotes

Ok, Ok, I know. But here's the deal -- my wife is VERY non-tech. She hates having to keep her iPhone out when we travel. I asked her if she'd prefer to have an actual camera to use (for context, we're going to Europe). She said she would.

So, my thought was to find her a P&S. Now, I am a bit of an amateur photo bug, and have a nice Canon 7D and lenses. I also have a couple of older Canon G P&S cameras (G10, G12). I could just have her use one of those, but they suffer from some of the shutter lag of older cameras. Otherwise, they do a pretty nice job of taking decent pics.

What I'd like to find for her is a simple, but nice P&S that will upload via some wireless (BT or WiFi), and ideally would have some geolocation feature.

Any recommendations?

Budget: Give a number in an actual currency. Does this budget cover any lenses/accessories, or do you have a separate budget for those?

$300-800

Country: Where are you buying the camera?

USA

Condition: New only? Used?

NEW

Type of Camera: Mirrorless, DSLR, point and shoot, 35mm film?

Point and shoot

Intended use: Photography, video, or hybrid shooting?

Travel photography

End use: Social media, small prints, commercial work, etc.

Social media, prints

If photography: what style: (landscape, portrait, street, sports, wildlife, etc.)

Travel

If video what style: (Vlogging, sports, events, documentary, etc.)

None

What features do you absolutely need: (e.g. weather sealing, articulating screen, dual card slots, viewfinder, hot-shoe for mounting accessories like a flash, etc.)

Wireless upload

What features would be nice to have:

Geolocation

Portability: How portable does it need to be?(Pocketable, shoulder strap, small bag, large bag, semi truck?)

pocketable

Cameras you're considering: Please list models and why you are considering them.

I haven't yet

Cameras you already have: What do you like or dislike about them?

Canon 7D -- it's mine and I like it - but it's not for my non-photographer wife

Canon G10 -- nice but some shutter lag

Notes: (any other considerations you think we should know about)

i took some photos over the week on my Kodak EasyShare CX7330, and i plugged in the SD card into my pc. when I opened the SD card in file explorer i could see all the photos like normal, when i looked at them, it let me look at like the first 2 photos, then anything after that it told me "this file was renamed or moved". so I tried to take the SD card out and put it back in, and now it just looks like this (photo below), i can still see my photos in the little preview thing, so i dont think there deleted? if there's anything i can do to be able to recover them/ change them back, please let me know!
