I am a newbie to this forum and also do not know much about DSLR.

I am an Amateur mobile photographer, trying to get a DSLR. I live in india, I capture both video and photos.

I don't know what the used camera market is like in India but for someone trying to move up from mobile phones to a DSLR you should really consider getting a used camera.

For a long time I have bought used or refurbished equipment and that has allowed me to get a lot of equipment that I could not otherwise afford.

I just upgraded from a T3i (600D) to a 77D and there are not a lot of dramatic differences in the image quality. For someone buying their first DLSR a used T3i (600D) like I had would be find for photos. I never shoot videos so I do not know if the video quality would be good enough for you. For photos anything with 18 Megapixals would be plenty for your first DLSR, You could also look at all the other models in between to see what is available.

As far as the image quality the Canon kit lenses are actually fairly decent even though they are not as good as some more expensive lenses. A lot of what makes some of the lenses a lot more expensive is that they are more durable, weather sealed, or have a faster aperture.

The 200D offers a lot of value for it's low price, and is newer technology. But I found the biggest advantage was it's size.
