A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

Buyers guide wasnt specific enough for my sheer level of broke. What's the best I can manage around the £30 range. I can go up to £50 if necessary but I'd rather not (I'm very broke). Looking to do OF content and other stuff for socials so only needs to be good for portrait and full body scale, both pictures and video. If it can have the flip thing so I can see what it's looking at that'd be great but I'll make do if that's beyond my budget. Thanks in advance!

Lol. Just use a phone. Can't even buy a cleaning kit with that budget.

At that price just use your phone. The only dedicated cameras in that price range are going to be 10+ years old and that is without a lens, or you will get a old pocket camera that will perform worse than a modern smart phone.

Use your phone. You won't find anything close to as good for that price. You could look at getting a video light, neewer do some on amazon for around that price. That and your phone will be better than any camera you could buy for that price

If you can't use a phone, get a EOS 100D and a 18-55 kit lens, but that's still gonna be a hundred quid.

Got one thanks. Get a real life

If you have a job why can't you afford more than £50 for a camera and why are you doing OF? Embarrassing.

Some of us aren't earning much buddy, it is what it is. You really gonna come at someone for it?? Doing OF cos your mom desperately wants my nudes

[–] ApertureUnknown@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I promise you, nobody desperately wants your nudes. Serious life advice, you're better off putting the time and energy you'd spend making OF content into making a better life for yourself (more time into your actual career/job).

Well shit, tell your mum that mate cos clearly she didn't get the memo. Serious life advice, dont go around trying to give unsolicited life advice to people you've never met
