My favorite cameras in order
Pentax KF (I found it surprisingly easy to use, and for $700 new/$500 used it's a great value, the ergos worked for me and it's lack of touch screen wasn't a big deal cause it was pretty intuitive, if anything too many features for a novice. Being one of the cheapest full size old style DSLRs is cool and I loved the shutter sound)
Canon R50 (absolutely idiot proof, it's a perfect first camera for retards and I think canon did a great job with the software on the camera, nearly impossible to get a bad shot, my only complaint was the telelens making it look like im holding a stinger missile if I have to take aircraft photos)
Nikon D7500/Nikon Z50 (they felt nice in hand, especially the D7500, and the lenses were smaller than the Canons imo, also felt pretty easy to use, I liked the D7500 slightly more for it's faster shutter speed and chunkier ergos that made me feel like a pro but the Z50 had a touch screen and better software)
Sony A6400 (insane how fucking Adorama has it for $750 when most sellers charge the same for a used camera + it just werks also a great camera despite /p/ shitposting about snoy)
Least liked:
Sony ZV-E10 (hard to take a photo with)
Nikon Z30 (disliked ergos + fuck not having a viewfinder stupid shit)
Olympus M10 Mark IV (firmware was fucking stupid to use, would rather use the R50)
Pentax K3-III (TOO many features and not used friendly for a retard)
None of the Panasonics worked. BH did not charge them and they didn't have any of the M43 lens Lumix cams at Adorama, only the $1000+ full sizes at which point I'm spending the money on a Sony or a Canon R8/R10 sorry.
Honestly it's tough between the Pentax KF and Canon R50. I really liked how idiot proof the R50 was while hating how big it was physically once you got anything other than the 18-45 lens.
