So I bought my first DSLR Canon 600D/T3i in 2013. My main reason to buying it was to make movies ( passion was filmmaking )( Now focusing on photography )
I bought it with 18-55mm lens
Later on I bought 50mm f/1.8 II lens
I also have a tripod.
I hardly touched the camera since 2014. I even forgot how to use it's menu and buttons.
My friend who happens to be photographer helped me today to remember what ISO, Aperture, Shutter speed are used for. My main goal is to just enjoy my time photographing whatever is in my mind. I like photographing animals, landscapes, astrophotography, nature and black & white photos.
My questions are:-
Are photography schools/courses worth it or should I just learn online and self teach myself ?
Should I improve my equipment or should I stick to my current equipment till I teach myself more and improve ?
Should I atleast buy better lens ? I'm not good in knowing differences of lenses buy I'm teaching myself and Googling.
My budget is 2000 USD however soon as I get a job ( that's in Oct 2016 ) my budget will be much higher.
