What was your first camera?

[RTX 3070 I7 11800h]

I dont know why but I love posting on ltt I think it might be a small addiction of me : D

Im on my first camera now. (My actual first camera was a iphone and a gopro but I dont consider that a 'camera') My camera is a m50 and I would like to know what your first camera was or is.

Hand me down Canon 7d. Used it for a lot of projects, and it just keep on going. Still pretty nice today.

...still the same Coolpix L340. I never buy that camera, its a handmedown by my dad's stint in his banking days. Its horrible, doesnt have OIS, compress like hell, and lack of ISO and aperture control pretty much means youre at the mercy of the auto settings. I never bother with it anymore, i just run my Galaxy S8+ or my Note 9 if i need a camera.

Kodak Star 110, but not the sweet Lion King one.

I bought a few cameras this week. I don't really need anything but basic ones, but I can't help myself.

Canon PowerShot A60... 2.0mp.. lol  It's in Canon's museum apparently.

I used that camera in tons of mem/psu/cpu-vga-cooler/case reviews way back when.

My 3DS

Nikon FE with a motordrive and 35-70 2.8 Push-Pull. 

 

Still have it, made a career out of it, never looked back. 

[The Blackhat]

A Canon T2i with an EF 50mm F/1.8 ii. Startlingly good images for the sub $200 I got all of my original gear for.

I have yet to actually pick up a DSLR (eventually™), but what ignited my interest in casual photography was my Galaxy SIII. Some of the things you could do with those feels illegal. You could get that sensor all up in the subjects shit and it'd still be in focus. The second image in the spoiler was taking during the day (so my room was lit up) against a blue wall. Like how.

 

Sad part is I have yet to take a picture as decent as these on my SE2 just because I don't have more control over what it does as I haven't been bothered to purchase an app for it yet.

"First" camera was probably some old point-and shoot or a throwaway camera, first okay-ish camera was an iphone 6's camera, hopefully getting a real camera at the end of the summer- the Fuji x-t200

First camera was some sort of Canon point and shoot. First decent camera was a Canon Rebel XT. That one was stolen, then went and bought a Canon G9. It died after being exposed to cold temps. Then went and bought a G10, sold it, bought a Sony Alpha 5100, still have it and I now have an Sony A7R IV.

I feel you because I got a hand be down point and shoot once I never used it because it spat out a wmw video file and a jpeg low quality almost looked like a png.

Close enough. M50 uses the same sensor as the T7 if I recall. The T2i would take comparable images to the two.
