I'm leaving to go abroad for a year and have a very limited budget for a camera (hence why I'm looking at older models). I have dabbled in photography before, but don't have a ton of experience.
I have an opportunity to buy a Nikon D50 SLR with AF-S DX 18-55mm lens for only $120. First off, is that an acceptable price? Secondly, even though it's a 2005 DSLR, would its image quality still be far superior to the Powershot S3 or SX10? I have always wanted a DSLR and think that maybe the D50 would be a good started camera, but I also don't want to be frustrated trying to teach myself how to use it during my year abroad.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Added (1). I'm also wondering if I will need an additional lens for the D50, or if I could stick with the 18-55 mm for awhile until I become more confident using it… Maybe the Powershot S3 or the SX10 would be much simpler for me to use? Thoughts?
