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!

    Any camera that exists is a good starting camera, so the question is somewhat vague…

    First, you should think about your budget. Then, maybe think about what you want to take photos of, then choose lenses based on that, then a camera body that is compatible with those lenses.

      It was kind of supposed to be vague, since I’m really a novice, but this clears up the steps in choosing a camera. Thanks!
