Want to give just two advices, that helped me in the beginning and further on:
- do you like to be a victim of photo-equipment-industry or are you interested in photography as an art? Means: Dont invest in expensive equipment if you dont want to earn money with it. I know photographers, taking really great pictures with a film camera, a standart 50mm lens and an average film scanner. O.K. thats the extreme road... but, like already said before, use ONE camera and ONE lens for a longer time. Youre photos enhance automatically without giving a penny for new equipment.
- if you want/ need something new look out for older and used lenses. Youre actual camera doesnt need a high-tech glass for thousands of dollars. M42 lenses from Zeiss e.g. are a good choice and have a magnificiant I.Q. Some of them cost nearly nothing.
In my eyes the DA 35mm is a good lens and my favourite focal length is 35mm. On APSC its really universal - and zoom is still included - youre feed. You can also try a SMC Pentax-A 35mm F2.8 and get happy.
Photo posted below - out of cam - taken with Zeiss Pancolar 50mm 1.8 (older Version) Price: 40,-€ :) What more? |
