Basic to choose the right camera

1. Step 1

   Choose a subject to photograph.

2. Step 2

   Opt for a telephoto lens (a lens with a focal length greater than 55 mm) to bring your subject closer.

3. Step 3

   Select a wide-angle lens (a lens with a focal length of less than 40 mm) to broaden the scope of your photograph.

4. Step 4

   Use a regular lens (a lens with a focal length of 40 mm to 55 mm) for most situations, because it offers the maximum aperture range, which allows you to photograph under a wider variety of lighting conditions.

5. Step 5

   Go for a zoom lens (a lens without a set focal length) to reduce expense and increase flexibility because it lets you shoot across a wide range of focal lengths from wide-angle to telephoto using one lens.
