Camera Advice

I want to get my wife a digital camera for Christmas and spend about $500. What would be a good make and model for an beginning photographer? We had a nice pocket size one a few years back but it disappeared. I want to get a bigger one for her thats easy to use.

Ask photog.

I still have my Nikon D50 that I've been using for nearly ten years now. They have even more options now. Nikon has quite a few nice DSLR's in the $500 range.

Thats a generous camera budget, may want to consider a piece of jewelry for 300 and camera 200. Just saying.

I am not photog or a serious photographer, although I have been told I take some good pics. I bought a nikon coolpix, L810 and have yet to discover all the features. It has like 32 different scene settings, and I love it. I feel it is a great camera for people like me......If I had one with anything more it would be a waste for an ameteur like me to go above that.

For sure, one with a lanyard attached so it doesn't disappear again!

Canon EOS 7D, Canon EOS 3ti and Nikon 3200 love all three, recently got them back out and started snapping pictures again. Mirrorless is Slowly, taking over, But DSLR still takes amazing pictures.

The suspense over a Christmas 10 yrs ago is killing me ,,, what kind of camera did you get her @scratch ??
Is it still being used ?
Is it in closet collecting dust ?
Did you opt out and buy her a vacuum instead ?
