FIVE TOP TIPS FOR SWITCHING CAMERA SYSTEMS

-

CONSIDER PURPOSE What about the new system will be of benefit to your area of expertise? Are those one or two features enough of a reason to move?

HANDLE THE NEW CAMERA FIRST Visit a local camera shop while browsing candidates for new cameras, to be sure the layouts won’t hinder your workflow.

GET SOME ADVICE Speak to other photograph­ers working in your genre for their experience­s of system changes. Check online forums for specific camera users, to pick out pros and cons of your future system.

TEST IT OUT Once you’ve decided to switch and you’re on the destinatio­n system, hire potential new models for several days, to test how easily they will fit your way of working over time. KEEP AN EYE ON FUTURE RELEASES IN

YOUR CURRENT SYSTEM You may find a new model pending release that has what you need, negating your reason for changing range.
