I am looking for a camera to buy for my wife. She is really enjoys photography and I want to get her a good SLR so she can enjoy her hobby more.
The things she would be doing with the camera is taking picture of our kids running around, she really really enjoys taking photos of the great outdoors. She is just really obsessed with taking picture of whatever we are doing and capturing those moments and keeping them forever. I would really like a camera with amazing photo quality. She will probably do a little video but I think the pictures will be the priority.
I have been doing so much research on which camera will fit her needs and be the best bang for our dollar. I have been looking it up for a couple weeks now and I still don't know which would be best that is why I am asking for your help. I was looking originally at the t6s but I think I can invest a little more money than that to get a better quality camera. I think for my budget I would like to stay around 1500 for camera and lens but can go up to 2000 if its really that much better. I also really liked the 80D which I almost bought yesterday for her but I figured I should ask y'all before buying. I saw a nikon D7200 which looks really nice to. Does anyone suggest the the 80D or D7200 over one another? Would the standard lens 18-55 STM or 18-135 STM be better? 18-135 just allows you to take pictures further away? I really want to get her all the basics then she can upgrade as she chooses.
If anyone else has any other suggestions on a camera and lens that would fit my needs better and be in my budget please let me know.
Thank you so much for your help,
Steve
