Don't think you can get anything decent for $100.

 

Good DSLRs are at least $300-400

Hard to recommend much at $100

 

400d maybe?

I just sold mine, very slow, max 1600 ISO, poor low light only 10mp but CAN take decent photos in the right circumstances 

 

 

 

Some examples of my own photos

As someone who is also currently saving up for a DSLR, you may want to save more. Cameras and camera gear is pricey, no way around it tbh, even second hand kits are pretty expensive.

you're not gonna find a DECENT dslr for around $100, even a used one. and by decent I mean, the more recent ones such as 2011+

Any specific reason it has to be a DSLR?

i just like the fit in the hand, also i like to tweak my shots on the camera

With your budget, youd probably be looking at an older DSLR, idk how well youd be able to edit the photos on screen, itd probably be a pretty low res basic screen.

Good DSLRs are at least $300-400

 

 

Whatever you can find I would look at something like a Canon 450D or better if you can find them.

That budget is really tight.
