How to Choose a New Camera – Three Key Things You Need to Ask Yourself – We see it happening all the time – People buying a brand-new camera without doing the proper research needed to buy the right camera for them!  And then realising it’s a bit too complex so a £5K PLUS camera just stays in the box at the bottom of a cupboard.
