If you're happy with the Canon menu's and system then stick with that. For beginner/hobbyist on a budget stick with the crop-sensor DSLR's. Mirrorless is the future but still rather spendy right now. Costs to consider: 2 decent lenses; protective UV filter on front of each; decent storage/carry bag (Kijiji/Marketplace); decent tripod (used); flash (used). Also to consider budgeting is taking an actual basics course - I thought I knew a fair bit and took a basics course which blew me away. Anyone can take a snapshot, but it does take training/skill to take a memorable photo. Lastly, the Adobe Lightroom environment (now on monthly subscription model) is fantastic for photo organization, storage, and 95% of what people want to do for/to their photos in post-production.


Edit: Don't forget a GOOD FAST storage card. Don't cheap out on this... the WRITE speed makes a massive difference to camera performance.
