    Beginner A cheap body with an expensive lens

    Beginner A cheap body with an expensive lens

    Definitely hadn’t put a tripod into my imaginary basket so far - thanks for the reminder Speaking of I also hadn’t even considered memory cards - whilst I have plenty of MicroSD from GoPro, Drones etc I realise I need a ‘proper’ card with the right write speeds etc Truly amateur hour over here...
