Best DSLR Camera for around $500?

I want to get a decent camera because I'm moving to the Rockies for the summer. I like photography and I think it's time I get a real camera instead of my iPhone. Here is a link to my instagram if you are wondering what I will be using it for.

Canon t3

It is clear you have not done any research.

If you had, you would know that dSLR cameras start at about $650 and up

Look at the Nikon D3200 or Canon T3i/600D

  • Will an iphone microphone work on a dslr camera? I have a canon 600d and i need to get a mic, will an iphone mic like the iRig work on my camera? If not what microphone should i get? I don't want an expensive one cause i won't be using it a lot it's just for a school project.
  • Will an examiner be able to tell the difference between pictures taken by the iPhone X or a DSLR camera? I'm doing GCSE photography and I have a really high quality moblie camera. However, I was instructed to use a DLSR camera. (Keep in mind when taking photos I will take them in the optimum conditions for iPhone cameras.) Do you think I could fake it?
