OK thanks

So what are CSC mostly used for?

As I'm a beginner can I check that I understand some of the meanings of words in the photography world? Aperture: (f-stop number) The aperture is the size of the lens hole, the smaller the number the wider the lens hole is. Shutter Speed: How long the shutter is open for. The higher the number...

What are compact camera systems? Are they compact digital cameras but with interchangeable lenses? If their not can you tell what they are and why people may use them.

Thanks for the recommendations and welcomes!

Thanks for the camera recommendations guys

Thanks guys, I'm getting a tripod for next week and I understand why I'll need it but I'm not sure what you mean by raw images Peter? Does it mean a simple photo where I can edit it my pictures on the computer later when I get back? Thanks for the book recommendation Alastair!

I'm going to be taking a trip next week where I shall be taking many landscape photographs. Could you suggest some equipment I'll need and any notes to taking landscape photographs. I'll be walking in the hills of Dorset.

Budget is £200-£300 pounds, I have a fujifilm s5500 which is old. I don't mind getting a good condition used DSLR from eBay in that budget-any recommendations? (I mucked up the threads) I mainly use my camera for landscapes and sport photography. I also do landscape night shots.

Mirror or Mirrorless?

So I do mainly landscape photography and I occasionally do some sport photography (using burst and high shutter speeds) so based on what I use cameras for, do I go for a DSLR or a plain digital camera?

Very nice! Good focus, but I would suggest crouching down to bring something very close in the foreground, doesn't always work but there's no harm in trying!!! Eg:2nd photo downphoto down
