I'd been dreaming of a fancy camera for ages, but I never thought I'd actually buy one. Finally, I decided to start saving up for a camera, and I immediately knew it would be a DSLR. Although non-DSLR cameras are great too.

But then my laptop broke down, and my husband got a new one on credit. I asked him to add my camera to his credit, but he refused. So, I had to apply for my own credit. I was nervous that they wouldn't approve me, given that I'm not officially employed. But, surprisingly, Sberbank approved me! I was shocked.

Since there aren't any electronics stores in our village, I went to the DNS online store and started browsing. I didn't have to browse for long, as this was the only somewhat affordable option with decent specs.

I didn't bother reading the camera's description, as I wouldn't have understood it anyway. And, as I mentioned earlier, I didn't really have a choice. I started filling out the order form. Right away, they offered me a 'special deal.' If you buy a 128GB flash drive for 2299 rubles, you get a discount on the camera. In the end, the flash drive cost me around 500 rubles. I'm not sure if that's a good deal or not. I also ordered the first bag I came across, which cost 900 rubles.

The package comes with lens caps, a battery, a strap to hang the camera around your neck, and some other accessories.

I was so fed up with waiting for my order that I ended up opening the package without even getting excited. I picked up the camera, looked at it, and had no idea what to do with it. So, I went to bed.

The next day, I decided to take the camera for a spin.

The photos turned out blue, dark, or overexposed. That was it!

I signed up for a free photography marathon on Contact. Here are the homework assignments from the marathon:

First up, I had to take a few photos to get a feel for the camera's capabilities. I started by taking a close-up shot of the nearest object in focus, and then a wider shot with everything in focus.

I was surprised by how well the camera handled the close-up shot, with the background blurred out nicely. The wider shot, on the other hand, had a more pronounced background blur.

For the second task, I had to take two photos in manual mode (M) - one with a blurry background and the other with a clear background, both while in motion.

The first photo was a bit of a mess, but the second one turned out great, with a clear background and a sharp image.

For the second photo, I had to adjust the shutter speed to get a clear image. The trick is to decrease the shutter speed, but this also makes the image darker, as less light is hitting the sensor.

I adjusted the shutter speed using this dial:

The lower the number, the shorter the shutter speed. To get a clear image, I had to either shoot in good lighting or increase the ISO. However, keep in mind that higher ISOs can lead to a decrease in image quality.

Here's the second photo, taken on a short shutter speed in good lighting:

White balance is crucial. My first photo turned out blue because I hadn't even bothered to adjust it. And if you don't get it right, your photos can end up looking yellow like this:

So, how do you adjust the white balance? It's as simple as tapping this button:

I'm still getting the hang of manual white balance adjustments.

But check out these photos after I figured out the settings:

Of course, practice makes perfect, and I need to work on my exposure and ISO skills. If you're shooting a long exposure, your photos will be blurry. That's where a tripod comes in handy. I've got a pretty basic one, but if you can afford it, invest in a better one. It's worth it for the extra stability and features like weight, size, and material.

I also tried shooting at night without a tripod. It was better than my smartphone, but still not perfect. There's a lot of noise from the high ISO, and it's hard to get a clear shot without a tripod. The maximum exposure without a tripod is tricky to achieve (I had to bump up the ISO), and the photo will be blurry. That's where a tripod comes in:

Once I got the hang of settings, my photos turned out amazing. The key is practice, right? I'm still working on getting the hang of it.

I'm actually pretty stoked I picked up the camera - it's a great value for money. I'm super happy to have it, and I'm already thinking about all the cool shots I'll get with it!
