You can do a lot with just your phone camera as long as you are paying attention to composition and lighting. Iā€™m not sure spending $200 on a camera AND lens is going to get you much. ---

$700 is actually on the lower end (considering lenses). You can get a Canon Rebel for like $400 which is good entry level DSLR, and then a thrifty fifty (f/1.8 50mm lens) for like $125. This may sound expensive, but this is about as cheap as it goes in the world of cameras. There are camera bodies and lenses that cost thousands of dollars. ---

@shatterFX Congrats on the baby! Enjoy the experience, it goes way too fast. @PCaliyoyos If you have a decent smart phone you can get good shots. If youā€™re looking to learn how to use a camera look into a used dslr with a kit lens. places like Adorama or BnH or even if you have photogaphy stores near you will have used stuff that can get you pretty far. Just note when buy used every company has their own grading scale for the condition of the equipment so really make sure you know what your getting so you donā€™t end up with something busted. also take the time to learn the basics. Knowing how your shutter speed, apature, and ISO all work together will take you a lot further in enjoying the hobby. ---

Iā€™m late in posting this reply, but I have a Nikon D90 with the 18-105mm kit lens if youā€™re still interested in getting a DSLR on the cheap. Iā€™d say itā€™s in excellent condition, and the shutter count is currently at 9.5k. Itā€™s an older camera, but Iā€™ve never been disappointed by it. Iā€™ll ship it to you for $200 PP G&S. ![DSC_0438](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/7/0/7/707e810122edf0caaf3a34169f4f9354bbd5f66c.jpeg) ---

A year ago today I went way up the Ruby River in southwestern Montana to its headwaters. Fishing wasnā€™t great because of late peak flows, but the photos tell it all about the experience. A prime place to social distance before that was a mainstream thing (Iā€™ve always loved my personal space). ![IMG_20190630_092712318](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/e/2/3/e23f75a0c2830a9bbdf67c713cef87b132aab75d.jpeg) ![IMG_20190630_100643088_HDR](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/5/9/1/591ee6322e6de0a9251c3029ba6ee71ed0ac67f3.jpeg) ![IMG_20190630_132701784](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/3/6/1/3614aeb4366feafc998a68672dc77357045b3f25.jpeg) ![IMG_20190630_105947456](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/a/4/c/a4c91a6576f5208857bec3b4725b279acb7a2266.jpeg) [Previous page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/non-yoyo-photography/305364.md?page=5) [Next page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/non-yoyo-photography/305364.md?page=7)
