Want to buy an entry-level SLR camera, which one is more cost-effective?

First of all, you like photography. You are a beginner and don't know much about SLR. Let me give you a few more words to popularize the common sense of SLR.

First of all, before buying a camera, I'll tell you something you should pay attention to when buying a digital SLR. Simply put, there are three main parts that affect the imaging quality of digital cameras: image sensor, image processor and lens. The bigger the image sensor, the better (more pixels can be designed, the unit pixel occupies a large area, the mutual influence is small, and the high sensitivity and noise are small. ), which is one of the main reasons why cameras such as SLR and medium format are expensive; The more advanced the image processor is, the stronger the image processing ability is, and the faster the image storage speed and continuous shooting speed are. For example, although some of the latest SLR cameras are low-end, they use newly developed image processors, and their performance may be stronger than that of the previous generation of professional cameras; The quality of the lens will definitely have a great influence on the quality of the photo. I don't need to say more about the traditional era, especially the digital era.

Second, when choosing a SLR digital camera, the first thing is to choose the brand, because the brand determines your future accessories and lens updates. Brands are naturally Nikon and Canon, and other brands need not be considered. Because these two brands are traditional camera manufacturers, they have a long history and are among the best, and their products have high credibility. Although Canon is higher than Nikon in market share, it is neck and neck in quality. As for which brand to choose, the key is which brand's imaging style you like. Canon's imaging is soft and delicate, and Nikon's imaging is sharp and saturated (I personally prefer Nikon and use Nikon cameras, and the scenery is good).

Third, fans like you, if they don't have any skills, choose a set of machines first, and then update the high-end machines when they are skilled, which may be cheaper. Digital products are updated quickly, so don't try to do it in one step. In addition, when choosing, buy new ones instead of old ones (the reason is very simple, with the development of science and technology, the performance of new products is much higher and the price is not so expensive, especially for entry cameras). As you listed, the entry-level SLR Nikon D3200 and D3300 sets (18-55mm) are all good, and the Canon 700D sets (18-55mm) are also good, which are the first choice for entry. The price of the kit is around 3000-4000. Among them, D3200 is more cost-effective. At present, the price of a set of machines is around 3000 yuan. If you are just starting photography, it is still worth starting. Nikon D5300, a kit (18-55) costs about 5300 yuan, but it has many bright spots: 24 million pixels, rotating screen design, built-in Wi-Fi, married to the 39-point focusing system of the former mid-range machine, low-pass filter design, and the latest fourth-generation processor. If you have enough money, you can consider choosing. I think Nikon's low-end machine upgrade is more kind than Canon's. Just like the camera I recommended to you, most of the subjects you usually shoot every day meet your requirements completely. If you have special needs in the future, you can consider adding corresponding equipment. If you just pat casually and choose the starter kit, you can stop here.
