When I bought my first “serious” camera, I spent what seemed like days researching before settling on an entry-level Nikon DSLR. I’m still enamoured enough with the 2007 D40X that it decorates a shelf in my office. But, I have a confession: I’m insanely jealous of modern entry-level cameras like the Nikon Z50 II.
I learned photography on a 10.2MP DSLR with a maximum burst speed of 3 fps, including photographing local sports teams working for a small town newspaper. Learning sports photography on a 3 fps camera was a lesson in patience, to say the least.
