>>4399102Beginner looking at cameras for mixed use (still + video). Minimum requirement is 1080p30 with anything above that being a perk. I really like the idea of a DSLR and mirrorless with the ability to use a ton of different photography lenses. Is this retarded so far? Extra perks I'd appreciate but won't get bent out of shape about is higher FPS and then higher resolution as a very low priority.
I've got a line on a potential Nikon d3300 for $250 with a 55-200mm and 18-55mm lens (both with stabilization) as well as four batteries. Is that a decent deal?
It seems like /vid/ as a whole is not fond of nikons (I noticed they're pretty much absent from the sticky and saw some negative talk in the last /vid/ or two), can anyone give some background on that? From some cursory searches it sounds like their autofocus might suck and that its metering isn't as well adapted to video as photo, but if the user is willing to learn and compensate for these detriments than they can be good performers and do particularly decently at low-light use. Am I off base here?
Oh, I've also already got an Osmo pocket for lighter/higher FPS work, but I'm hoping for a lot of capability gain from the lenses to take more interesting and varied shots.
TY for tolerating my newbie questions.
