Getting the Right Digital SLR Camera

STEP 1 - I'm often asked what camera i would recommend.I always shrink a little.There are a lot of good cameras and even though it's great fun to try them out,analyze and research them,you'd be fine choosing almost any brands of digital SLRs cameras.All the major camera makers like Canon,Nikon,Olympus etc make high quality equipment.The brand is not important because after all,the camera just does what is told but the photographer actually makes the picture but of course it depends what kind of camera,features or specifications and types of pictures or images you want to take.Getting the right digital SLRs cameras you need to find the features or specification that suits you so you can concentrate on improving you photography.Developing your skills is what will make you a better photographer not your equipment because using photo equipment that is not suited to you will eventually make your photography into a complicated mess instead of the elegant form of self-expression.
