Cameras are a VERY individual thing. I used to be a semi-professional and started off with Minolta gear back in the film days, then went to Nikon DSLR’s. There isn’t really a bad camera amongst the brand name units, you have to judge them on the basis of the features you want, against the price point you’re willing to pay.
This may, or may not help but for ME, I prefer to buy a better quality body and a single lens, or even no lens and buy lenses later to get a better quality outfit in the end. I have found over the years a number of friends that went that way have been happy with the results as their photography has expanded and improved due to having better gear, and those who were only interested in “happy snaps” I’ve recommended a good to very good compact camera instead to keep their spending down and their overall experience up.
But no matter which way you choose to go, enjoy it as a good camera has the tendency to get you out and about.
Engage in the themed challenges we used to do, it’s a fun way to get to experience different types of photography and environments.
