Hey /p/, I'm completely new here so forgive me if I say something stupid.
I received a gift today completely out of the blue: a brand new Canon EOS rebel T5. The reason it was gifted to me was I need to take quality photos of my product for my online store, so they assumed I needed a 'good' camera.
I'm the kind of person who will research products for weeks on end before committing to purchase, so I'm always a bit put off when I receive a gift like a camera because I didn't have a say in the matter and as a result, the kind of research I do didn't go into it. Sure enough, it seems like this camera is lacking (based on reviews) and that cameras in a similar price range are far better.
I'm not above returning the camera, but wanted to get some opinions here first. Would it be best for me to return the T5 and get something else like a D5300 or T5i? I'm thinking that I might get into photography more now that I have some of the tools and am basically trying to get the best bang for the buck.
Thanks /p/. Any help is appreciated.
