@GoldenGlove @MikelArteta @CashmereThoughts and any other brehs with knowledge

I got my now 14 yo niece a Polaroid Now camera a couple years back, she really took to it. Always snapping up during family events (if she has enough film....Polaroid runnin a racket with them prices :aicmon:). She even bought additional accessories/filters with her allowance.






Was gonna wait til next year to buy her a 'legit' starter camera, but we got a family trip coming up this summer, so thought I might as well cop it before that.


1. What's a good camera that: is light enough for her to travel with.....carry around neck or her backpack/slingpack? and type of camera or lens that will do well capturing regular city shyt like Madrid, but also outdoorsy/hiking type shots thru the Alps?


Alternatively, I was thinking of maybe just getting her a point and shoot, super light weight camera and just getting her a better one at some point down the line.




2. Are yall self taught? If so, can yall drop some basic beginner videos.
Something like this that comes with a kit lens with put her in the game Amazon.com

I learned everything from drone operation to videography, photography, photo editing on YouTube, 5 years of learning everything element on YouTube and still learning

film photography is a cool hobby but I don’t FW it at all because it takes thousands of photos to learn and it cost too much

Throw that cheap 16mm 2.8 and you're good to go

That's basically my travel package
