Hi All,
my aunt shoots a Nikon D40. She pretty much always uses the auto settings (Auto or P, rarely A or T, never ever M). I would like to get her a birthday present, which is going to be a little fatter than usual because of all the help she's giving to my family.
My pick would be a D3200: high res (which she would enjoy when she prints large-format calendars with her holiday shots, which she does every year) and not too many (confusing more than helpful) controls and dials.
And... a couple of lenses. Recommendations? Total budget would be around 1,500, which leaves about 900 for lenses.
My idea would be a kit 18-105, which would only be 50 bucks. She does mostly landscapes, then my next favorite would be a wide angle. Which one?
Or a prime tele (she also likes details in landscapes... etc...)
Advices welcome!
