The main 3 I’m considering are the Nikon D3300, Panasonic G6 and Panasonic G80. The G80 is more expensive but does have 4k video.

D3300 £149 - £204 with the 35mm f1.8g lens G6 £129 - £313 with the 12-60mm f3.5-5.6 lens G80 £234 - £418 with the 12-60mm f3.5-5.6 lens

This is my first camera and I am quite the noob. I’m planning on taking it with my to paris soon for some travel and portrait photography

EDIT: I got the Nikon D3300, with the 35mm f1.8 and the 18-55mm kit lens for £260 shipped, should arrive tomorrow. Can’t wait! Thanks everyone!

    One thing to keep in mind as you (hopefully) get more into this, since you’re not looking to do low-light photography, I would suggest cheeping out on the body, and emphasizing moreso for the glass. The lens you use matters a whole lot more than the body itself. That being said, make sure you like the features/look of the photos taken by more expensive bodies as well. It’ll make upgrading a whole lot cheaper since you’ll only need to upgrade the body instead of everything when you realize another brand has the look you want

    (I started out on a Nikon D3200 in hs, then realized after college I liked Sony’s mirrorless lineup a lot. I’m currently in the process of replacing the lenses I had originally gotten for the D3200, in addition to the camera body itself)
