Gear up for landscapes! hoosinga camera system, lenses or accessories ( for landscape photography may seem daunting at first because there is so much choice out there. Manufacturers inundate us with features and gadgets that they tell us make their camera so much better than everyone else's. Beneath all the marketing babble, there is a wealth of choice available for every budget and skill level. With a little research and keeping a budget in mind, there is some great photography gear to be had out there. The following pages will give youa head start on where to begin and what to keep in mind as you search for your gear. It's worth noting as well that the cost of the camerais secondary to the skill and creativity of the photographer. An expensive camera does not automatically make youa better photographer. Many extraordinary images are taken with modest cameras, so don't get too bogged down with price tags. Although there are many new cameras on the market stuffed to the gills with all the latest tech, there are also large number of older models out ‘there that still offer amazing performance and could well be a secondhand bargain. = Camerasfor | landscapes Looking fora camera to shoot landscapes? landscapecamera?
