[QUOTE="jonboylaw, post: 520825, member: 17621"] Depends what you are aiming to do with the camera. I'm a canon man myself. Bits of advice: Always shoot in RAW mode . It allows you to maximise any post processing Avoid pre programmed modes. I use aperture priority mode mostly as this let's you set depth of field (DOF) easily. Get a decent tripod, nothing with a flimsy head, need to be sure the camera is locked solid. Learn the basics, f number vs exposure time VS ISO etc Buy the best optics you can, always spend on the glass. Get a good remote release. A good 50mm prime lens will do you well. Practise, practise and practise. Get a copy of Lightroom... Sent from my GX64 SatCom phone using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
