I think I finally want to buy my own camera. I usually used my dad’s Nikon but let’s just say I’m more comfortable having my own. I’m no photographer but I might learn a thing or two and this might just become a nice hobby for when I’m bored and just walk around town. Can you guys help me pick a good starting camera? Nothing too fancy…I remember Canon used to be all the rage but I’m guessing times have changed since 2016. Anyway, any input or advice you can give is appreciated so I might start planning the buy. Thanks!
Good luck :) just steer clear of the Canon R100, good sensor for the price but everything else is a joke! R50 is a good camera but it blows past your budget.
An additional advice of mine would be not to bother with kit lenses, they pretty much ruin the beginner experience in my opinion by crippling any creative experimentation (at least it was like that some 10 years ago). A brighter (=low F number) prime (not zoom, fixed focal length) might make for a more compelling experience.
