Cheapo DSLR?

[AJR]

I'm only fourteen, so my budget is tight. I wouldn't like to spend more than $200-$300 bucks. The lower, the better. I'm looking for a DSLR for photography as a hobby, and maybe a photography class in high school. I'd also like for it to come with everything I need. I've been looking at Canon for a brand, but any other known brand would be fine.

Last summer I found a Canon Rebel XTI on craigslist for 100 bucks, it didn't come with any additional stuff though. But if you're beginning into cameras and don't want to spend a lot, you can shop around for used ones as a start up. Great way to learn without putting a hole in your pocket.

Its not quite a DSLR, but I picked up a Samsung NX200 on ebay for around £100. I believe they are classed as MILC's (Mirror-less Interchangeable Lens Cameras). Hence the name, you can switch the lens's out and you can get mounts for proper DSLR ones too.

Sony Alpha A3000

Sony NEX series (the highest you can afford)

 

Older Nikon D's. Anything under $300 is fair game right? Do you care if it's used? Do you need the lens kit or just the body?

With this, can I just start using it out of box or will I need to purchase lenses, and a micro SD?

Well you will sooner or later need to buy more lens . Since you are in the US I recommend you look into the used camera sections
