I am new to photography but I am interested in getting into portraits
of children. Is there any particular type of digital camera that would
be best for that type of photography. I would like to do indoor as
well as outdoor pictures, both posed and candid.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Visit a good portrait photography studio, or just one of those places in
a shopping mall and take a look at the photography gear they use. You
will quickly realize that the equipment needed for this type of
photography extends beyond just a camera. Any of the major brands of
digital SLRs should be fine, but you need a good quality lens and what's
also important is good quality lighting. I would not ever attempt to do
professional portraiture work with a point and shoot camera or even a
dSLR and not have good lighting to go with the camera.
If you stop by a bookstore or your public library, or just google,
you'll find tons of information on this subject.
