Get familiar with your camera:
The first thing is to know is what kind of camera do you need. There are so many brands producing different models with different prices and there are so many types, it could be confusing for a beginner. All cameras have the same basic operating system same as cars. While camera choice does matter, every model is capable of great shots. If you are a beginner purchase a camera with a kit lens, spend time practising and developing you skills. The more expensive the better result in the photo you take. Even the cheapest camera will be difficult to operate if you do not understand the basic concept of photography.
