Obviously a Nikon or Canon, in my opinion preferably Canon. How about the T5? It's well within your budget depending on the lens/s you get.  http://amzn.to/1UnHdvR  That kit comes with an 18-55 mm lens, Entry level for sure and definitely made for the more basic side of photo's but still good for a starter. It comes with a HEAP of accessories in the pack so that's your best bet for that Camera body & Lens. If you really need a swivel screen get the T5i but it will cost at least 100 bucks more (  http://amzn.to/1SB1BZo  ). 

 

http://amzn.to/1rpp7OS  Is a Nikon camera which is at your highest budget but comes with two lenses (18-55 and 55-200)

 

Both under at or under budget but I always recommend the Canon's more. Don't ask why I just do they have a better reputation. But in saying that, The Nikon Bundle is pretty good. Just look through all the specs and see what you find suits your needs :)
