    Beginner Camera suggestions for kids

    Thanks! A bridge camera would be my choice as well. I think the only reason they are considering a DSLR is he's so into copying the older lad with the DSLR.

    Beginner Camera suggestions for kids

    My friend's son is 11 and spends 90% of his free time skateboarding. Unfortunately he broke his leg last week so he's stuck in a cast for the rest of summer! He's asked his folks if he could have a camera for his birthday so he can hang out at the skatepark taking photos of his friends...

    What will be your next photography related purchase? Or what photography gear do you lust after?

    A camera body!!! My 2nd D300 finally died leaving me with a pile of lenses and nothing to put them on!! Stuck trying to decide between a D500 or a D750 while desperately trying to raise funds for either!! Probably end up buying a cheap used body until I can afford either!

    Pet photography...Help!!

    Thanks! Judging by the videos I've seen they do go from mass brawl to falling asleep on top of each other in 2 seconds flat! I have been totally honest with their owners that this isn't something I have any experience with...Thankfully they also understand how hard it will be with the pups! I...

    I've been looking online all night at pet photos....Seeing plenty of perfect puppies all looking in the same direction perfectly posed...Then I look at the videos of complete and utter chaos my friend has posted since the puppies came along and I reckon I'm doomed :)

    Pet photography...Help!!

    A friend has begged me to take some pics of his dogs. One hasn't got long left and he'd love to get some shots of them all before it's too late. One or two dogs I could probably cope with but not convinced at coping with 4 adults and 11 puppies!!! Worse still i'll be using borrowed Canon...
