Is it worth financing a dslr?

Melixx28

read first please :

I am a 17 year old teenager and in my senior year of high school. I work as a sales associate at Old Navy for about 8-16 hours a week. Also I babysit 2-3 times a week making $10 an hour. I would like to see if I could pay a monthly fee for 6 months to pay off my camera. I am an AP Studio Art(photography) and would love to have one of my own. Is it worth a shot?

Answer
DSLR is too much costly so you can buy point and shoot camera which has good quality.

i suggested you a one camera which is really good and affordable to you.

Nikon Coolpix L22 12.1MP Digital Camera which is really nice

* 12.0 megapixels for stunning prints as large as 16 x 20 inches
* 3.6x Zoom-NIKKOR glass lens (37mm to 134mm); bright 3.0-inch LCD
* Easy Auto Mode with Scene Auto Selector;
* capture 640 x 480 movies with sound at 30fps
* 3-way VR Image Stabilization System
* EXPEED Image Processing; Smart Portrait System

Would it even be worth it to save up for a DSLR camera?

Okay

Yes, they're nice, take amazing quality photos, and are becoming more popular nowadays.
But, in a few years don't you think you'll be able to buy that same quality on a phone?

For some one who doesn't have the immediate finances to invest in one, and would have to save up for a year or two, and also is not looking to be a photographer, just a hobbyist, would it really be worth it to save up and buy one?

My phone already has an 8.0 megapixal camera with auto focus, and it's a year old!
In two years from now, just imagine what our phones will be able to do.

Answer
I agree that phone cameras are improving at a massive rate of knots. My wife takes some fantastic photos with her 5 megapixel phone camera when the conditions are good. Here are the areas phone cameras need to address to be be as good as today's DSLR:

No lens protection - lens get scratched and degrades
Tiny sensor - produces high noise in low light
No optical zoom - just digital zoom that pixelates and adds noise
Tiny lens - you cannot grind lenses as small as that to the precision you can with a bigger one
In built LED flash gives a pale blue palour to faces
No ability to add external flash
No ability to afix filters
Fixed aperture lens or at best 2 or 3 settings
Lack of manual exposure control for awkward lighting conditions
Too small to get a really good stable grip needed for sharp photos
No direct viewfinder just a screen that is invisible in bright sunlight

Now just imagine what our DSLRs will be able to do in 2 years - I wonder who will be first to put a phone in a DSLR?

In summary, I think it highly likely that phone cameras will kill off the bottom end point and shoot market, indeed I think it is already happening, but DSLRs will always be way ahead on picture quality and versatility.
