Ive been researching a camera for my usecase but need to check a few questions before buying anything.
Im amateur, no interest in becoming a pro, just wanna shoot pics i find cool as hobby, they dont need to feel like pro, also wanna have good pics of me for IG, travelling, doing my hobbies.
My cheap cellphone has a 26mm lens and i find the image quality more than enough. Ive been able to get decent results shooting things 10m away from me, fine.
Problem is whenever i try to take a pic indoors or of myself, even at 2m apart from the camera, the results arent great. Everything looks to narrow. Tried playing with configs but it seems to be the focal lenght of the camera.
>get even further away
Indoors this isnt possible since my house isnt that big. Also unless i buy pro lighting bright as the sun, going too far from the camera, zooming then cropping turns the image too grainy and that just bad.
So in my case, where i plan to shoot outdoors and nature but also eventually take portraits and shoot people indoors, should i buy some entry level camera with lens in range 35-50mm?
My cellphone works really fine for outdoors in a sunny day, but what if i eventually wanna shoot a cloudy day or unlit indoors? Then i need to play with aperture, right? My phone with its fixed aperture, makes the image too grany in a bad way with poor light.
So buy some entry level camera or a more expensive phone?
