Is my Panasonic Lumix DMC- fz18 good for beginning photography?
I want to know if my Panasonic Lumix DMC- fz18 is good for a beginning photographer it has 8.1 mega-pixels and 18x Optical Zoom, bought it about a month ago from a pawn shop, don’t really know how to use it, anyone know any cool tricks and tips for this camera how to get the perfect images or image quality?
Actually “photography” implies complete control of the camera by the photographer. This means that NO P&S camera, no matter how expensive, nor how many features is considered a camera suitable for learning the control necessary to be considered a “photographer”
If you truly want to learn photography, you will need to take a few classes in photography and to do this you will probably need a 35 mm SLR with a standard Zoom Lens.
Once you have learned how to perfectly expose every shot you take and can produce amazing images nearly every time you press the Shutter Release, you will be ready to start adding lenses and later include a DSLR in your Camera System.
P&S cameras are an excellent way to learn to compose because the camera takes care of all the technical things that are demanded by a fully adjustable camera.
