Hi everyone, I’m looking to get a new camera and lenses for street, action, and portrait photography, mostly outdoors in daylight. I’m considering the Sony A7C, but do you recommend any other cameras I should look into? For lenses, I’m thinking: • Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8 or Sigma 24-70mm f/2.8 for general use. • Sony FE 70-200mm f/4 G OSS or something with more reach (like 300-400mm). Would you recommend this setup or something different? Is the A7C’s built-in mic good enough, or should I get an external one?

A simple guide on how to get your shots to look professional and more intentional. I often get a lot of questions asking me the best way to make your shots dynamic and appealing, below is my full guide on how to achieve this ; 1. Rule of Thirds Imagine your photo divided into nine equal parts by two horizontal and two vertical lines, creating a grid. Placing your subject along these lines or at their intersections can make your composition more balanced and interesting. How to Apply: • Enable Gridlines: Most cameras and smartphones have a grid option; turn it on to assist with composition. • Position Key Elements: Place important parts of your subject, like the eyes in a portrait, at or near the intersections of the grid lines. Improvement Tips: • Practice: Regularly use the grid to train your eye in composing shots naturally. • Experiment: Try different placements to see how they affect the feel of your photo. 2. Leading Lines Leading lines are natural or man-made lines that guide the viewer’s eye through the photo, often toward the main subject. They add depth and make the image more dynamic. How to Apply: • Identify Lines: Look for roads, fences, rivers, or even shadows that lead toward your subject. • Compose Accordingly: Position these lines to draw attention to the focal point of your image. Improvement Tips: • Vary Perspectives: Try shooting from different angles to see how the lines interact with your subject. • Combine with Other Techniques: Use leading lines alongside the rule of thirds for a more compelling composition. 3. Fill the Frame This technique involves getting closer to your subject so it occupies most or all of the frame, eliminating distractions and emphasizing details. How to Apply: • Move Closer: Physically approach your subject or use your camera’s zoom function. • Focus on Details: Highlight interesting textures, patterns, or features by filling the frame. Improvement Tips: • Be Mindful of Focus: Ensure that the important parts of your subject are sharp and clear.
