Get mirrorless. No point DSLR anymore. Get light-weight camera like Olympus PEN series or Panasonic GF series. At least when you go out to take pictures, you don't feel like you're in a gym.

iphone XR

P30

Put the stupid iPhone to shame

any used dslr is good for beginner.

later if you pro abit, then change

Fujifilm xt30 /ricoh gr3

Light and compact but expensive.
So buy used.

P30 pro. Can zoom nebers house

Buy a Pixel phone..

Your handphone has camera? Play with that first.

Then point and shoot compact camera.

Don’t straight go to DSLR.

Buy a cheap used DSLR to get the hang of manually playing with the aperture, shutter speed, ISO etc... Once you're comfortable with the controls and prepare for the next step then you commit and get a good DSLR/Mirrorless.

I've seen too many times people straight buy a new DSLR and in the end use it the exact same way as point and shoot.

Another thing about DSLR is you need to post process most of your photos with software like Lightroom or Aperture. Most people don't realize today's phone do the post processing for you so when they use DSLR and see the color and all like not nice they go back to their phone.

else use the pro mode on your phone

expensive, lens also expensive. beginner only. later feel like pro abit then commit buy good mirrorless lah.

go for second hand prosumer model (should be less than RM1500). Learn the basic, start to invest on good lens. Once you get all basic knowledge only upgrade the body.

BTW, Pentax>All

+1
the best camera is the camera which you have now.
start with your phone. read or watch youtube and learn about composition, lighting then try taking photos of everyday things. the more you shoot, the more you learn.
then look for maybe a second hand sony rx 100 or fujifilm x series. the former comes with a zoom lens and the latter is fix lens...which is also good as it makes you move around to compose your shot.
then slowly progress to a mirrorless camera and different lenses.
dslr is dying already, so no point.

Olympus em5....great starter camera with IBIS built in...not the newest model but cheap enough to adopt and learn

For the Point and Shoot, the Sony RX100M3 or RX100M5A (Fastest/Brightest for any point and shoot, 1" sensor) is a great place to start =D

p30 can zoom far != good image.. bodos

Sony A5500
so easy to use until drop pants

how much budget?

iphone XS

Xiaomi + gcam can beat all DSLR

canon eos m50.
or sony a6000.
put in auto mode.

orly?

This or P30pro

use your semakphone

any Hasselblad
or sony a7rii

P30 pro
kentang also can shoot

P30 pro enouhg d la...

HUAWEI P30 PRO
CAMERA PHONE 2 IN 1 HNGGGGGG

get Huawei P30 Pro jer

Nikon D5xxx

D3xxx is too low you will miss a lot of learning potential.

Fujifilm Instax Mickey Mouse Edition...

so you can see how mickey mouse your shots are instantly...

and improve on them immediately.

used dslr risky buy or not?

d5300 nikon rm1899

other models can get below rm1k?

Used Sony a6000 + used kit lens = RM1300 can get already.
Mirrorless camera is easier to learn, what you see is what you get (photo).
If you want to upgrade to full frame sony later, you can buy FE / full frame on your apsc camera.

A6000. Period.

use phone camera with manual shooting app

P30 and use pro mode

Biggest risk for used DSLR is high shutter count (or in layman term, how many photos the camera has taken so far)

For me the advice I would give for people who want to venture into DSLR is to get a cheap 2nd hand DSLR (or borrow one would be much better) and play around for a few weeks to see if you really want to venture into DSLR. For me the main thing at the start is to get used to the controls and settings and determine what kind of photos you shoot. With this you can start to identify what is the main features you need in a DSLR and identify what body you can target in future upgrades.

yeah understand better now

shutter count is an important metrics

DSLR heavy af, even lens are heavy, mirrorless is good enough.
Better to get something that you will use rather than something accumulate dust like majority of DSLR.
If you want to go hardcore serious just go medium format directly.

Check out dpreview.com to see which DSLR or mirror less worth getting USED.

The reason i dumped my dslr lol. Too lazy to edit everything

How is it expensive? It is the least expensive interchangeable lens system out there. TS can get the kit lens and play around with it first.

system not matured enough. you can get tons of new or used lens for dslr for a very cheap price. mirrorless is different story. entry lvl body is kinda cheap but lots of feature missing.


so my honest advice for beginner, get a used dslr body and lens. only upgrade when you feel confident or want to continue playing

Sony > All

ok sorry boss... i wrong...

TS pls take his advice. Want beginner but want dslr? It's like want to learn drive but must bmw class.

Slowly learning curve. U can lambo next time also no prob

lolwat.
there's an even auto mode on a canun 5d4.

what's more important is the sensor size. i suggest minimum apsc.
canon m6, m50.
fuji xt100, xt10, xt20.
sony a6000.

Don't go DSLR already, get a mirrorless.
