Welche Kamera?
Hallo,
Ich würde gerne mit der Fotografie anfangen, besonders gerne würde ich Tiere und Vögel fotografieren.
Ich würde gerne nicht direkt so viel Geld ausgeben und habe mir deswegen mal diese Kompaktkamera rausgesucht:

Kann mir jemand sagen ob das damit was wird?
Vielen Dank!
The camera may look professional but inside it is a tiny sensor as it is also installed in mobile phones. Accordingly, you have a lot of zoom, but the images will be more or less just on the phone level. The camera is only suitable for good lighting conditions and the birds must sit still, because the autofocus is rather slow.
Here you will find example photos, but you should consider those are usually photographers who have been dealing with photography for a few years:

In somewhat worse light conditions it starts to get out and the noise suppression will get you the whole picture:

So I’ll say that. The camera is better than a mobile phone and for novices safe okay, but really professional results you will get less.
By the way, they got significantly cheaper:

Thank you.
There’s nothing like that. only for the simplest documentary purposes according to the motto “This looks like an amsel”, but you can’t do beautiful images with a photographic claim.
The camera has only a small sensor and that is already very bad in general, but especially in good lighting conditions (and good means not much, but little) animals, especially birds also move a lot, you want proper light etc. ISO goes up fast. It’s more like system cameras. And much focal length is only good if you have the right camera behind it.
I’m sorry. You have to live with poor quality when you get those cameras. Or you save on a system camera, needed.
I would strongly advise you to a camera with a change lens! Whether DSLR or DSLM!
My tip would be to ask in the DSLR forum and fill out the questionnaire at the camera purchasing consultancy. There you can specify in detail what you are looking for, how your budget is, whether the budget will expand later (whether you would save for more purchases or longer), whether you want to buy used or new, etc.
My tip would be to buy a good used camera or a not quite up-to-date model and first work with kit objective (18-120 mm etc.). With this you can do NO “good” bird photography, but already photograph birds on the lake, on the beach etc. from a distance (weak, birds when drinking etc.). A 70-300 lens or 55-300mm lens (can be between 300 and 500 €) would be useful for proper good photography. Larger goes also, 500mm, 600mm, but these are usually in the clear upper hundreds range or are over 1000 € (and often have to be used from the tripod, so it is about camouflage, waiting, correct time, correct place, very much patience and precision).
Therefore, I would definitely read and ask in the DSLR forum reading reports from bird photographers, watching videos, watching the equipment and the procedure and also comparing prices.

In addition to videos and blogs, I would also look at books about animal and bird photography, especially regarding equipment and procedures.
I started with a Superzoom camera (Nikon Coolpix 500) and then with DSLR + Tamron 70-300, but I quickly noticed that I lacked patience and the willingness to drive in areas where I could observe something other than garden birds and gulls and then went to still life photography. So macro: I found the pictures interesting, but the procedure and the equipment were not mine.
Therefore, before buying, I would first research a lot and also see reports – including videos like the people do – and check if this is really something for you. Advanced animal photography can quickly become very expensive!
Can you get a camera with which you can reasonably photograph animals for about 500 euros?
Canon EOS 4000D Kit 18-55mm DC III Reflective Camera, black: Amazon.de: Electronics & Photo
I also have a Canon mirror reflex, but a somewhat more expensive model. And I got a telephoto lens on it, which cost 600 EUR.
search for a used system camera, e.g. by sony or canon, which have at least one aps-c chip. this has only one tiny one that does not bring particularly good images in the magnification.
So I have them myself and am very happy! 🙂
I had made this picture with my mirror reflex, I had no telephoto lens yet. Either you buy a camera with built-in tele or you’ll be careful to change the lenses.
Photography is such a great hobby 🥰
