As others have mentioned, brand is not as important as ease of use and features to match your purpose. I am principally a wildlife photographer, but over the years have specialized in many subjects. I have shot Nikon film, dslr and now mirrorless. It is also important that you have a good selection of lenses as well.
Since you are just getting started, I suggest that you get a mirrorless camera. In a few years the digital cameras will no longer be made, and it will be harder to get them fixed if they break down. Mirrorless will be around for a long time.
Canon, Sony, and Nikon are the major manufacturers and will support your camera for years to come. Depending on what your subjects will be, ask the various forums for the best lenses to go with your camera.

The GBH shows the amazing AF of the RX10 amidst lots of back round clutter .......600mm f4 equiv., 1/1000, 400 ISO - this with a 50% crop in soft overcast light....

Another shot of the nest with mom, pop, and the single Eaglet munching on breakfast - 600mm f4 equiv. + 2X CIZ = 1200mm + 50% crop from about 130 yards distance - hand held/braced.

Thanks to ALL for stopping by and for comment .....

I have a CF Express Type B memory card, 256GB, that is not recognized when I plug it into a card reader and then insert it into my PC. The card was formatted in a Nikon Z9 camera. The card is working because I can copy it's images onto the other memory card (same type) in the other slot of the camera. But again when I use a card reader into my PC it will not recognize it. The other card is read instantly by the computer and I can see all the images, including the ones I have copied from the card that is not recognized. Does anyone have any recommendations on how to get the computer to recognize the other card?

If your new acquaintance is dissatisfied with her PC, and is convinced she should move over to a Mac (as I did and never turned back) she will quickly discover that prices on new machines are pretty much fixed. She can save a few dollars by purchasing refurbished directly from Apple.
I won’t bother debating what I feel are the advantages of using the Mac, and I am unaware whether PCs have eliminated the problems that I hated some 29 years ago. I will say that Apple keeps the machines updated at no cost, and that in my area of the country there’s no problem finding service if needed… which has yet to be the case.

We used pc’s in our office and home and had nothing but trouble. We then moved everything over to Apple, phones, iPads and Macs and have never had another virus or problem. We do all of our photography on large screen Macs

A little of this and that. The 'hopper in the first shot couldn't have been more than 3/8" long.
