Welcome to the forum! In my opinion, the Canon SX50 is a great camera to start with. It is a very capable little camera, especially for outdoor pictures and also indoor shots with good lighting. The easy to navigate features of the camera, a great auto mode, manual controls available, as well as the 50X zoom, make it a great place to start. I love my Canon SX50, and use it as a travel camera, when I don't want to travel with the bulk of a DSLR and lenses..

Welcome. The sx50 was probably the best bridge camera on the market..it was replaced by the sx60, which by all accounts wasn't as good!

Welcome to the Hog Michael, yes the Canon SX50 is a more than capable little camera that takes very good pictures and has a fantastic range. You will be happy with it.
