One main contributor to easily improving workflow is through proper processing and storage equipment. While every photographer's needs are different, still an examination of the special characteristics of devices will help you decide what works best for you. Attention to the entire system of equipment will also help in selecting the right equipment.
Examining Computers
As a photographer, knowing what you want is critical. Whether you decide on a laptop for convenience or a desktop for stability, you main focus should be selecting a computer with a large amount of memory. With a larger memory, you will be able to reduce your rendering speeds when it comes to editing.
Examining Printers
With printers, decide whether or not you will have your own. Then, knowing the quality that you can be happy with will be the next hurdle. A balance, here, between budget and quality will definitely need to be struck. Finally, the size of the images, not just pixel density, but image dimensions will have to come to some sort of resolution.
Photo Storage
Cloud and hardware storage options are available, but using a little of each may be the real solution in the long run. For cloud storage, find a service with great protection and easy full-quality retrieval. For hardware, decide on the balance between convenience and expense when selecting cards, DVDs, or external drives for storing your photographs.
Examining Editing Software
Not only must you find software compatible with your computer, but you should also check to see how much memory is required for fast rendering. Once you have these questions answered, you can then move on to the details of the effects and functionality that you are looking for. Let ease of use be your guide unless you are planning to invest the hours needed to learn the software.
Choosing the Most Essential Piece of Equipment
When your computer, software, storage, and printing options are taken care of, you finally have time to devote to the most important tool of a photographer. Although you will find a camera that matches your current development, that will no doubt change over time. With your improved skill level and improvements in photography, you'll find that your camera changes with you.
Examining Lenses
While on the path to professional photography, you will soon find that lenses are an essential tool for you. For your first DSLR camera, one lens is probably all that you will need. Once you upgrade and settle on the camera that you really love, you can then begin to add to your collection of lenses. Since lenses are usually only compatible with a single camera or model series, you'll want to decide on your body before investing more in lenses.
Once you have your equipment in place, you're ready to explore the world of photography to its fullest! Choosing what works best for you is the key. Although this may require some planning, it will be well worth it in the long run.
