'Tis the Season for Photography

With Christmas fast approaching, one may be looking for a new gift idea, such as buying a loved one a camera or giving them a framed photograph. So, what is the biggest bang for your buck?

Photography:
Photographs are a great, inexpensive gift to give to loved ones or friends. The key to this is you have to find a great photo of you and the loved one or friend, a frame, and you must learn the basics of cropping photos. Then, wrap it and put a bow on it. Your friend or loved one will be touched by the gesture.

Cameras:
Cameras are a typical gift around Christmas. So, what kind do you buy? First, decide on a budget and do not go over. Second, decide on what the camera will be used for. Third, research different types of cameras or ask an expert at Best Buy. Finally, wrap it up and give it to your friend or loved one.
A few Cameras to check out:
  • Canon Powershot A1200: $87
  • Panasonic Lumix DMC-FH27: $151.95
  • Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W570: $139
  • Nikon S8200: $279.99
  • Canon EOS Rebel T2i DSLR: $699.99
 "In my opinion, the Canon EOS Rebel is an inexpensive camera that takes quality pictures," said Kari Corbin. To check out more information on Corbin, visit her Facebook page: Kari Corbin Photography.

Now, if you have been reading my blog, then you have probably walked away with some great tips. However, I have not discussed how to take great photos with cameras. I found a youtube video that is very helpful in explaining cameras. Watch and learn, fellow bloggers!
