Re: just bought a camera!

Ameliaz,

Congrats on your new camera!

I started out DSLR photography with a 1200d (rebel t5), which is 2 models earlier than yours.

It was a fine enough camera, but I got the completely wrong lens for my use (35-80mm). It wasn't long enough (birds) or wide enough (landscapes).

Someone told me nikon is better than canon.

Weeelllll....

For some (some- not all) cameras, nikon's equivalents are better spec-wise.

For example, nikon's equivalent camera (the d3500, albeit slightly more expensive) has better dynamic range (I think) and better (less noise) ISO.

BTW, I might be starting a photography course soon.
