I have been taking and printing my holiday family cards by myself for a few years now, this one is from last year. Here’s the bare minimum photo gear that I use: 📸 Manfrotto tripod with Canon camera connect app 📸 camera: canon R5 📸 lens: sigma 50mm F1.4 Art 📸 photo and cardstock printer: canon pixma pro-200 📸 for the post cards: Canon photo pro premium matte or Canon fine art matte paper 📸 to cut the cards: Dahle 552 rotary trimmer I have been a professional photographer for years and it took me years to find, buy and curate this set. If you only take photos as a hobby and you’re looking for a good camera get Canon Powershot G7 X - you’ll love it out of the box and it’s easy to operate. Photo printer idea: Canon Selphy If you are looking for an instant camera for yourself or a gift get Instax mini evo- it’s retro looking, delivers wonderful instant photos and is a joy to use overall.
