Just getting started with photography? If you’re unsure where to start, here’s what to look out for when buying your first camera:

Affordability:

Camera prices can vary dramatically from a few hundred dollars to a few thousand. When buying your first camera, photographers typically recommend starting with cameras that are affordable, easy to use and help you learn while having fun. At Myer, our range of instant cameras from leading brands like Polaroid, FujiFilm and Kodak are cost-effective and offer autofocus abilities and point-and-shoot features that allow you to focus on framing everyday moments in iconic formats.

Camera size:

When buying your first camera, you’ll need to consider your needs and how the camera’s size may impact them. We recommend smaller, compact cameras that provide more convenience while travelling around and getting used to taking image and video footage regularly.

Image and video quality:

Image and video quality is often the first thing to consider when purchasing a camera, regardless of whether you’re a seasoned professional or just getting started. A popular belief is that the more megapixels a camera has, the better the image quality; however, this isn’t entirely true. Many factors, including range, contrast, and image and video stabilisation, can impact the final result. Different brands can often produce different results, so when purchasing your first camera, it’s worth looking at example footage showing what the camera can do.

User-friendliness:

Advanced cameras typically have many features and are used by seasoned photographers because they’ve gained enough experience to use them effectively. When buying your first camera, starting with a straightforward, user-friendly camera will help you capture the moment without over-complicating the process and minimising your enjoyment. The easier you find the equipment, the more you’ll be able to focus on having fun!
