What is the best camera to buy for a beginner photographer?

The best camera to buy is whichever one in your price bracket you feel most comfortable with. You can learn a lot with a point and shoot camera. Lighting, subject and timing are far more important to a good photograph than any of the technicalities of the latest digital gear.

Often a compact digital camera is more than enough if it fits in your pocket, will go everywhere with you and is better quality than your phone. 

As you progress, your desire will grow for some good quality equipment that allows you to change shutter speeds, lens apertures and focussing to achieve different effects. You can achieve all of that with a good compact camera.

I learnt with a folding Kodak camera that used a 620 roll film.  It was a (very) long time ago, but significantly after Einstein updated the laws of physics with his theory of relativity. The basics of photography have not changed since the first cameras were built and used almost two hundred years ago.

These days, every camera that we sell, apart from a few Instant and Disposable cameras, has a digital sensor to capture the image together with a screen for live view and playback of the image. Most of the once vast range of compact cameras have now been superseded by the smartphone in your pocket. A few classics, like the Canon Ixus and Olympus Tough, remain as well as the slightly larger Travel Zoom cameras popularised by Panasonic under the Lumix brand name. These have lenses with a zoom range of up to 30x and go places that other cameras, or smartphones, cannot reach.

Even larger zoom lenses can be found on Bridge cameras, so called because they look and handle like a full system camera but are in fact no more than an overgrown compact camera.

SLR cameras, digital or analogue, differ from other camera types in that they have a mirror behind the lens which reflects the image on to a viewing screen and so enable you to see exactly what you are about to take and change lenses at will. When you press the shutter button, the mirror swings out of the way and hits the camera body with a resounding clack.  The light from the lens focusses directly on to the digital sensor or film.  As almost all the SLRs are now digital, the acronym has evolved into DSLR.

The latest cameras of choice look and operate in a very similar way to a DSLR and can use the same lenses with an adaptor.  The optical viewfinder is replaced with and electronic one, making the clunky SLR mirror redundant.   Hence the name, Mirrorless camera.

We only sell products that are imported and backed up by the official UK Supplier.  Every camera comes complete with UK instructions and Warranty.

Many come with a battery charger and UK mains plug but not all. Check 'what's in the box' so see if you will need to find your own USB-C charger and lead.
