Not a photographer, just interested in taking pictures of the moon. Figure one of those bridge cameras with 50x zoom and 1000mm focal lenght are what I'd be best off with.
Which one though? I did some research but I have no clue what features mean what.
According to the wiki, I should just go with latest powershot (sx60) but I've had some Fuji's recommended over Canon.
Also, fiance's birthday is coming up at the end of October and looking to get her a new camera as a gift.
She used to be into photography before she met me but let it slide by the wayside, about 6 years ago.
I'm hoping that once I get whatever bridge camera she'll get jealous of my dope moon pictures and want to get back into it.
I figured I'd get a canon rebel or w/e but apparently these mirrorless boxes are hot shit, so what kind of entry/amateur camera should I get for her?
DSLR or Mirrorless?
Figure I'd go with entry level so if she ends up not really getting back into it, it won't be a big deal.
tl;dr What Bridge camera and what dslr/mirrorless for getting back into photography?
