Need suggestions for Semi-Professional Camera (Low price-Good quality)
I have a question I believe you can help me a lot with. As most of you are bloggers and professionals, you must be quite savvy with the camera. That's why I would like to ask you for some help.
I want to buy a camera which offers good quality, vivid colors and still doesn't break the bank. I know Hometalk is more Home & Garden oriented, but still, it has the best community out there and I would really appreciate some tips and personal experience.
You girls, have some quite outstanding photos, what camera can you recommend? Anne @ creativelifeblog.com , Debbie @ Confessions of a Plate Addict ,Chaotically Creative Co. ,Tara @ Suburble , Leigh Anne Watts

Tara @ Suburble on Apr 25, 2014I have a Nikon D90 - and I love it! It's no longer being made, but I believe that the D7100 is the replacement? I love Nikon; they're solid DSLRs and I've learned a lot fiddling around with my camera. Some people are die-hard Canon fans, though. It's all what your preference is.Helpful Reply

Veronika Th on Apr 25, 2014Thanks, @Tara @ Suburble ,I will definitely take a look at Nikon D90 and D7100. Unfortunately, another thing I don't quite understand are the lenses. What kind of lens would I need if I get a Nikon D90? Yep, some people are definitely more fond of Canon and as a person who haven't ever seen a Nikon in action, I like Canon, too, but can't say I like one of them better.Helpful Reply

Debbie @ Confessions of a Plate Addict on Apr 25, 2014So glad you like my photos, Veronika! You are not going to believe my answer, though. I just use a little point-and-shoot...and it's old, too. It's a Cannon Power Shot SD630. Then I use Photoscape (a free download) to edit them. That's it! Good editing is the key for me. :-)Helpful Reply

Mitziblueyes on Apr 29, 2014I have a Nikon d3100 it has a "guide" button that allows me at adjust setting based on what I wanted to do without knowing how to do it! Highly recommend for a beginner. My bundle was about $700 at best buy.Helpful Reply

The Garden Frog with C Renee on Apr 29, 2014I gave up my expensive digital camera when I got my Samsung 3 smart phone about 2 years ago. I have taken some awesome shots and with all the features of panorama and even best shot feature, you cannot go wrong. Plus you carry your cell phone with you and so it makes it very easy on trips to point and shoot. I am upgrading to the Samsung 5 after the glitches are worked out because it has a 16MP camera and more features. Just my 2 cents worth...Helpful Reply
