Choosing the Perfect Camera for You (At Any Budget)
The most common thing people ask me online is, "what camera should I buy?”
When there are new cameras being released from every brand multiple times a year, it is really hard to do enough research on your own to figure out which camera is right for you and what you’re going to use it for.
In this podcast episode I chat with Greg Farnum all about cameras and which ones we’d buy. We talk through what features really matter when choosing a camera, what accessories we’d recommend beyond just the camera body or lens, and finish by discussing what we’d buy with a $500, $1,000, $2,500, or $10,000 budget.
Whether you're in the market for a new camera or you want to be reassured that what you have is good enough, this episode will help you out.
