I’m totally new to photography and want to get my first camera. I’ll mainly be using it for nature photography while hiking and traveling.

My only focus is on photos of the highest possible quality.

My budget is around $600, and I’ll also need essential accessories, but don't know what I'd need, like a lens?

Not open to refurbished, as I'm buying in Vietnam.

When you say nature photography are you thinking of landscapes or wildlife or both?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Both. What do you think of the Canon EOS R50?

Any RF mount camera will give you great results but you will be locked into a relatively new and expensive lens system with fewer options for third party lenses. A cropped sensor can be good for wildlife but will also restrict what lenses you can use. I'd recommend something like a 6D which gives you the benefits of full frame sensor and can use EF mount glass without an adaptor.

If 6D is better and is also cheaper, why isn't it on this list? https://www.rtings.com/camera/reviews/best/camera

Because its an older body and the article authors wouldnt make affiliate income from the links.

Thanks! That's exactly why I came here asking. So in your view it's superior pretty much in every way?
