A good DSLR, entry level, for a beginner

Same tech so it doesn't matter

Digital is for fags.

Pentax K1000

If you're absolutely sure you'll stay with it and not just put it on the shelf after a couple of weeks, just skip the hassle and get a used mid range DSLR. I'd recommend the Nikon D7000.

I second this. I started with a d3200 and it's an alright camera but once you learn more about photography and experiment more you really quickly find out the basic camera's limitations. As Anon said, if you're not sure you're going to stick with it go with cheap&basic. If you're sure you'll still be doing it after 3-6 months skip the "entry level" camera and get a step up.

honestly those camera bodies are pretty close tech wise. So basically it boils down to what lenes you want.

Mirrorless will help you learn and take the photos you want exponentially faster.

Also, it's compact and you'll look less like an autist.

This, or used K-S2.
Alternatively Nikon D3300, D3400 or Canon 700D, 760D, but these cost more and offer less.

I agree, I bought a nikon D3300 about a year ago, and while it is a good camera, you can feel the limitations once you know what you're doing. It is much smarter to buy a more expensive one which will be much better in the long run

In the same spot as you, but the limitations that I notice for me is the af, low light abilities, and fps. I would recommend the d3300 a lot though for a beginner. Going to upgrade soon to a d7200 or a d500 depending on how my work goes

Glad to see I'm not the only one having trouble with low light setting with my D3300. Would you guys share some of you work ?

Buy Sony ;)

yeah get a d7100

i often notice people talking about the ominous limitations of beginner DSLR, specifically of the D3300 compared to D7000/D7100.
im also looking for the best deal to start some serious photography and i'd appreciate some more detailed info on that issue.

Nikons low tier DSLRs need more menu diving and af system is more limited. Higher end models have two control dials and more direct controls, more advanced autofocusing engine, more sensitive af points and a screw motor for old D lenses. The viewfinder is also better, bright and large prism instead of pentamirror and with more accurate coverage. They are more robustly built and better sealed.
