Hmm iphone rm3k+.. rm3k camera cannot outperform iphone?
Of course cannot ! Iphone RM3K comes with 3 lenses. RM3K camera without lenses is useless. Some more u said your budget less than RM2.5k. If you going to get a camera body + a kit lens (because that is what that budget can get you), then u better get a better iphone.
A lot of beginner asking here for suggestion for a new camera and stating their camera budget, but they never factor in the price of lenses. When they realized that a lens can easily cost more than the camera itself, they either fall back or just get the kit lens, expecting that they will still see different from their iphones. But sadly, most of them quickly realized that, without better lenses, the camera + kit lens is only marginally better than the iphone. Yet the iphone is so easily to bring around, always available and they have all the pre installed filters and smart apps that helps you to do selfie and portrait editing. So in the end, you will realized that your camera has been sitting a home collecting dust, worse yet, growing fungus. By the time all your interests in photography died down, then u will see the camera as an eyesore which you wish you never get it at the first place.
So yeah, invest your money toward a better iphone.
If you still insist of getting a dedicated camera to take nice photo of your gf that will definitely up your game from any smartphone, this is my suggestion: Canon Eos M50 (mark 1) + Sigma 56 f1.4 dc dn. If you're lucky to find used one with good condition, you may get the combo under RM4k.
