Need expert photoshop opinion?

Would it be possible to photoshop myself sitting in this chair (the right one) without people knowing it's a photoshop? I would like to know if can be done easily (not by me but to pay someone on fiverr or something, I know some photoshop but not too much). Also, they say good light would be the best to take picture with so it will be easier to photoshop. So should I take the picture of myself outside in the sunlight? Any tips on taking the picture? Of course correct height and angle but what other details? Also, the camera I would be using is Nikon D5100 or D5200. Any tips on camera settings? I would want to use the picture to show my friends on Facebook and wouldn't want them to be able to prove that it's photoshoped. Also if there is a better website than fiverr please tell me.
Thanks.Need expert photoshop opinion - 1

Looking to upgrade 50mm?

I've been researching some different options as an upgrade to my nikon 50mm 1.8G on a nikon D800, but would love to get a more direct opinion. I'm a natural light photographer and would like invest in an upgrade for my natural studio sessions with newborns/young children. I've read that the 1.4 doesn't make a significant difference and I prefer autofocus, so the 1.2 is out. But am considering the sigma 50mm ART. If not, this lens, do you have any other recommendations?

Why won't my Nikon D3300 take more than 1000 photos?

I've only had this camera a few months and I cannot figure out why I can't take over 1000 photos. I rang Nikon today and they were pretty useless but they told me I should be able to take up to 9999 photos. Problem is, if I take 1001, 1002, 1003 etc photos then it starts to rewrite over photo 001, 002, 003 etc (and for some reason it doubles the file too, so when I look at them on the computer there are two copies of each shot). I technically can keep shooting but I will lose the first 1000 photos I started with. Why is this happening? My memory card is big enough to take over 2000 photos. The guy from Nikon told me to turn ON the setting File Number Sequence but I'm not in the mood right now to take 1000 photos to test out if this has fixed the problem.

What kind of camera can i get with these qualities for a reasonable price?

I have always had an interest in photography but im just starting to look into getting a -real- camera. I have a camera currently but its really just not cutting it. I got it in about 2008 and just… No. I want one that takes crystal clear photos. If you've ever looked through binoculars before at something that's fairly close, and then focused, i would love a camera that takes photos that clear. I love the artsy feel of close up photos but can never get that crystal clear shot.
Also i would like a fast shutter speed so that i can take action photos that will come out looking amazing. Im not sure if i can find one for a reasonable price with these qualities.
But for a reasonable price. I haven't done a ton of research on it yet but i found the canon rebel t5 and i heard it takes good action photos but are the photos going to come out clear with this camera. Keeping in mind that im an amateur photographer so im not really looking for a camera like a Nikon d5000 (although i would LOVE to have one) im looking for one no more expensive than $650. Ive tried to look for a while but i don't know where to start.

Thank you x

I would like a camera for Christmas. I don't know what kind I should get?

I am 14 years old. I have always loved taking pictures, but I do it with my phone. I still don't know exactly what I want for Christmas, but I know I want a camera with a price range of about 200-400 dollars. A few people I asked recommended Canon, and others recommended Nikon. Any suggestions? Thank you!

Resolution vs Bitrate. What is better for good video?

I'm going to a wedding on saturday. I wanted to shoot some video while I'm there. My camera is a nikon aw110 the best two options of video are 1080p/30p@ 15Mbps or Iframe 540/30p@ 24Mbps. I plan to edit it at 1080p. What is better? Is lower res high bit rate better than high res lower bit rate?
