Use the best camera you can

Use the best camera you can

A high-end digital SLR (single-lens reflex) camera is the most appropriate device for high-quality photography. However, with constant improvement in image capture technology in other devices such as phones and tablets, images produced by these devices may be acceptable for some purposes, provided that you have checked the capability of the device, selected high-resolution capture settings and followed the rest of the advice given here. Ensure that you have any accessories required to capture your images, such as zoom or macro lenses, a tripod, flash, or UV or other filters.
