>>3979974Well, if I get just the base T7 rebel and a prime 50mm lense for the better low light imaging, am I losing out on anything compated to the 18-55mm lens? Like the 18-55 is adjuistable, right? is the 50mm prime not?
>Depends inyour picture the f number is 3.5 which is the lowest your kit lens can achieve. It gives you a nice blurry background so we can just focus on the object but you should have increased the number because you lost some details (the legs). The downside is that if you increase the f number you decrease the light your camera can gather, you compensate with shutter speed or iso (lower shutter speed brings more light but you need steady hands or a tripod, high iso might give you unwanted noise).I took those photos like 2 years ago, I think what I was doing was doing everything auto, except putting the ISO as low as I could go without it getting blurry due to shakeyness or being too dark, and then I was using the f-stop value to compensate for stuff being too bright or too dark due to the given ISO I was selecting
Based on what you're saying I shouldn't have been using that and the F-stop is primarily useful for controlling the depth of field effect rather then for brightness?
