Hi
I'm looking to get new camera or a kit for my daughter, she has been using her mobile phone for couple of years which works but after sit down few times with her there seems to be sort of feeling when she hold real camera her eyes just lights up, as I have interest in most of aviation it will be handy to take some shots is well so in market maybe for both of us, she loves taking images of close ups and that could be anything from flowers to small animals, we tried taking few pictures of wild life but you just can't do that well with phone, also she likes to take pictures of landscape/clouds so is sort of everything is hard for me to say which she prefers, there is something else she is struggling with anxiety and going out exploring taking few shots seems to help her. We have old SLR sitting in bag which is Canon EOS3000v very basic but bear with me, it has EF 28-90 lens and if I'm correct this will work with some Canon DSLR? could this work with the likes of Canon 450D? I don't have set budget but I have to be realistic here don't want to spend £1000 on something that in few months it might not be used so 2nd hand market is the prefered option. Maybe just get body to work with the lens that I have for general, pick up macro lens for small and close ups and telephoto and see where this takes us.
If you have any suggestions please let me know. Thanks
