|
|
This may seem like the wrong forum for this question, but considering my specific goals, I am looking for advice specifically from graphic designers and photoshop gurus. So...
I want to buy a new digital camera. I would like to stay in the $400-$700 range. I know, I know, but that’s all my budget can afford. I do a lot of “editing” of the photo in photoshop, adding such things as textures, alternate skies, and other hue, saturation, colorization, blurring backgrounds and aging techniques. So I don’t need the best camera around.
I need a camera that does well with capturing colors/contrasts in skies and can be crystal clear at 1-5 feet distance, taking photos of people. I want the kind of definition that can capture pores and peach fuzz. :-)
I DON’T plan on taking any fast motion sports kinds of shots, nor shots in moving cars. I do have troubles with my hands shaking (so I need an image stabilizer), but I don’t need to worry about taking many moving images or taking X number of shots per second.
I have some ideas, but I want to reserve my opinions until I hear others’ advice. I really appreciate any advice you can offer!
All the Best,
Matthew Freeman |
