hey y'all

I recently decided it's finally time to get a decent camera again. mostly for photos but also for vids. amateur everday use in different scenarios. should be good overall and not to complicated to handle. maybe I'll become a semi professional at some point and upgrade lateron.

budget is around 1.5-2k

also which lenses/gadgets etc do you recommend?

are those two options even viable in 2021? are there better recommendations for that kind of budget?

thanks for your input in advance

a7III would be a better choice than the 90d. since it's a full frame vs aps-c. plus the a7iii has IBIS. will get rid of many shaky shots for both videos and photos. and many more. it's obviously more expensive so make sure you have more money to spend on decent lenses too, which will go for another $300++ more depending on the lenses. i suggest prime lenses since the apertures are usually better than zooms. too much info. good luck

Also bought the Sonya7III last year, and i am very happy with it. Go for it...very good at lowlight also.

Is that budget for a body only? If you're interested in mirrorless, I have a Canon EOS R and I really love it. I would look into that line as well. I've always used Canon so I'm probably biased but I think they are easy to use and just all-around great cameras.

Sony A7 iii. Or if you arent doing sports (ok with 4.5 fps) Nikon Z5 is nice. Both are full frame mirrorless. I got mine (z5) from a local camera shop, ymcamera.com. same prices as bhphoto.

I can recommend the Sony A7 series aswell, they're started out strong and only got better over the years imO.

I would say sony but make sure you have another $3k handy for each additional lens with a full frame mirrorless
otherwise if you don't care about quality loss aps-c sensor is the way to go since additional lenses are at most a few hundred dollars brand new.
just depends how "professional" you want to get
