My 1st Camera (Well Kinda)

Finally I am back with my second post. I know you have all been eagerly waiting for it. Well here it is, and it’s about my first camera, well, it’s not actually mine, a good friend at work, Mike has very kindly let me borrow his camera so that I can get a feel for the hobby before splashing out any hard earned cash. As I am sure you all know, it aint cheap at all to get into, depending on what you class as cheap, but to me a few hundred pounds on a camera is not cheap.

“Well, its not actually mine”

I was talking to Mike about wanting to get into photography and how I had heard, on trusty old YouTube of course, that Mirrorless cameras seem to be all the rage now, depending who you ask, and I may possibly be looking at picking up a second hand Sony Nex 3, or something along those lines as you can grab them for around Β£100- Β£150 with a lens and would be more than enough for me to start with and about as much as I would like to be spending to start of with. This is when Mike offered to lend me this …

His Nikon D3200. πŸ™

Not the mug of coffee πŸ˜‚ I just felt the mug of coffee made the photo of a camera a tad more interesting, don’t ask me why, I just thought it would so there ya go.

Now then, the Nikon D3200 is a DSLR Camera that was launched way back in 2012, so I went and had a little nosey on eBay at what I could potentially grab one of these little beauties for and I was chuffed to find it would be reet in my budget. So I am absolutely made up with this opportunity to have a good go with the Nikon and see if I like it, it certainly does look cool and I know I wont be disheartened if I decide I like the camera and want to buy my own. πŸ‘ŒπŸ˜

Now I best get out and start shooting some pics. see how it is and get a feel for the beaute. I am realy looking forward to getting some photos on this thing and will be back soon to share my progress or lack of lol. I have also been in the middle of a house move so only just starting to get time to get into all this proper.

Big thanks to Mike for kindly lending me his camera πŸ˜πŸ™

Until the next one, Have a good un!
