Photography Tips to Help You Make a Wiser Purchase

With all of the options available in this day and age, finding the camera that’s right for you can be a headache. Some people think a camera being more expensive automatically makes it better. That’s not necessarily true. The only way to know for sure which camera is right for you is to research and ask questions.

Photography is a lot of fun, but you want to purchase wisely. As such, it is best to make sure that you are getting the most out of every purchase. The first thing somebody looking to dive into the world of photography needs to ask is: what kind of photography am I planning on doing? Maybe you have children, and want to capture those fleeting moments of childhood. Maybe you’re planning a trip to Alaska (lucky you), and want to show off to your friends. A point-and-shoot is the typical solution, but sometimes that’s just not enough. A camera with a faster shutter speed will help get a good shot of an energetic child, and a wide angle lens will ensure that every breathtaking landscape is remembered. Buying the right camera now will save you money in the long run, as you go on to purchase flashes, lenses, and any other accessories necessary to getting the shot.

But what if you’re an amateur looking to step into the realm of a professional? The equipment you use for shooting portraits might not do for shooting weddings, or vice-versa. The lens you would use for street photography would never fly when shooting wildlife. This is what makes research so important. Knowledge is power!


At Berger Bros, we take pride in our ability to help customers figure out both the technique and the camera that is right for them. When you walk into our store, you are guaranteed to learn something, but we wanted to help our online customers as well. That’s why we’ve put together a few guides that will prove useful for both the amateur and professional photographer.

Still have a question? Call us at 800-542-8811, or email us. We would love to hear from you. The more we know about your interests, and the equipment you’re looking to purchase, the easier it will be to make your photography a more enjoyable and productive experience!
