EOS RP (full frame) with the starter lens is only (lol) about $1300
But there is a low entry point with this one. I bought a used Canon Powershot that has a 50x optical zoom. Only stores JPG. Can’t swap out the lense. But it was $200 and now I can zoom in on birds. Since it’s digital I don’t have to pay for film or prints.
That phenomenon is known as GAS, Gear Aqcuisition Syndrome. I sold all my shit and just have a 1" sensor compact now. I take a lot more pictures ironically.
The old adage I learned when I first got into photography (that I've only just started following) is that if you have $5000 to spend, spend $1000 on camera gear and $4000 on plane tickets. You'll end up with my better photos that way.
What is challenging in photography? Point and shoot.
What is challenging in art? Just put a pencil on paper and move it around.

To get the shoot you want it to be in the best possible quality.
My semi professional advice would be to point and shoot.
I have some pictures of my kids that I love, you should absolutely listen to me.
Some people prefer accidental strokes of luck, others enjoy planned projects. 😎
