This paper will not discuss the mega-pixel camera and will not compare X with Y. camera There have been many posts about it on the internet and I do not intend to add one more.

This paper is in the form of guidelines, and how to categorize the camera to suit the needs you. This paper will try to help you make the best decision in choosing and buying a DSLR camera. This paper is only a guide, instructions, suggestions, recommendations, guides, or whatever his name. So do not expect in this paper, I suggest what you should buy a camera. If that's what you expect, I'm sorry, this article is not for you hehehehe.

In short

If you want a short answer, move to buy D-SLR camera is actually very easy. You can just specify the amount of money you would spend, so the choice of camera model that you live a little. Then specify what brand you are comfortable. Selection was also thinking of your friends wearing what brand. If you plan to borrowing and lending of tools and accessories when hunting together, choose the same brand. If you want to be different, so just select a different camera brand from your friends. Furthermore, the residence you purchase the camera. This step is the hardest ever.

Camera User Class

All D-SLR camera brand consumer divide them in classes camera users. The division of this class also determines the price that they attach to their products in each class. The camera manufacturers usually divide their customers into several groups: - Entry level - Hobby - Semi Professional - Professional

Professional is a photojournalist who every day are called duties to cover in any condition, heat, rain, sand storms, on the sports field, or even on the battlefield. Professional is a commercial photographer who did the shooting almost every day. Professionals are those who would use their camera to its limits.

The camera is designed for users with strong security and high level of reliability. Usually its body is made from a mixture of metal, with the level of protective high-density rubber, so that said weather-proof. Can be used under the rain, although it does not say a water-proof. The facility and its features are made very diverse with access to such features is made easier (given a lot of access keys to the facility). Feature is much to be alone, so the photographer could have plenty of options to work.

Semi-professionals are people who use their cameras to make money, but do not require their resilience as a professional camera. Facilities, reliability, and security cameras need to be as strong as they are not professional cameras. Semi-professional is a wedding photographer who wear their cameras more on weekends.

Hobbies are the people who use their cameras to their hobby. The camera used to have fun off fatigue and their main occupation. The camera is used once in a while or maybe every weekend with their friends.

While the Entry Level are the ones who just 'know' the camera. Entry-level, as the name suggests, is the degree to which new camera users 'entry' into the world of cameras. This is because the price of the camera in this class is the most inexpensive price compared to other classes.

Entry Level Cameras for the user is usually given a basic course (and a few features of "pullers" for marketing purposes.) Camera body is made of plastic, with durability and reliability which made enough for this level users. Facilities and features many "hidden" in the menu, so to access it to go through the menu first. Cameras in this class still has a rubber seal, but not tightly classes on it. So the camera can not be called a weather-proof, although there are some friends who still dare to use this camera even when it rains.

In between both ends of the spectrum Entry Level and Professional users, there are users Hobby and Semi-Professional. Facilities, body resistance, as well as basic design clearly lie between Professional grade cameras and camera Entry Level class. In between this range, the camera model which offered very diverse with facilities and features are also very diverse. Boundary between the camera and the camera Hobby Semi-Professional is very vague and invites debate.

Please remember that the camera manufacturer is never explicitly stated that they categorize their customers into groups that alone with 4 kinds of different cameras at a time. They could have had more than 4 (four) products with the level of facilities and features vary. More and more choices, of course, the more likely a buyer could choose a more suitable to the needs (and pockets) them.

Most of you, who read this paper, falling in the category of Entry Level or Hobby. Perhaps, with the power of your money, you can tell if you can use cameras or even Semi-Professional Professional camera. It could be, and of course fine if you plan on buying the best camera with your money. This article only provides basic guidelines, D-SLR camera market is. Furthermore, the decision remains up to you.
