I think I may have posted this before, but was wondering what kind of camera's you guys many have? and how $$ ?
Looking for a new nicer one for the BF's birthday- I'm not too familiar with cameras, and camera brands. He's been wanting a new camera.
Thanks! :)

i think it largerly depends on what would you shoot with your new camera.
i know a few good cameras - but i use mine mainly for high speed low light action shots

I have several digital cameras, but seem to take pictures only with my phone since I have it with me at all times.

If you want to take pictures of things you see. Say you and your friends at a park, a cell phone or basic camera will do almost the same as a vary expenses camera. I like to take pictures of things I can't see. Like action or a an expression or even a face of a spider so something with settings is a must. Most people will never look at a picture and think I should have used a different aperture setting I don't like how stuff is "IN" focus.

I use my Samsung Galaxy quite a bit - but it simply doesn't compare to my DSLR - recently I got a new Sony, A57 (from memory) am mega impressed and certainly isn't the most expensive out there. So many settings, gets close ups so clean and crisp compared to my previous sony. The colours are rich and I really don't need to edit anything other then the odd crop. Action shots are fully in focus (I put the camera on specific settings)
It has a great scene selection where it will tell you what each setting does and gives you a tip on what to focus on etc. Very user friendly.

Do you mind me asking how much it was Claire?

I want a new camera, my dad got a Sony DSLR which is great. Not sure of the model number. I have a new one on my Christmas list :biggrin:
