A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

I ride my bike alot and I find I really enjoy taking photos but sadly with my phone it's limiting.

Any cameras that are fair priced but good for a beginner to learn and not need to upgrade from

Great choice - cheap, but capable of great photography. The D5600 is also quite compact, and can probably be obtained cheaply. Lots of good DX F glass is out there, too. For someone just starting and who wants a light kit, the VR kit lens (I want to say 24-55mm?) might be a good way to go. Should be dirt cheap used, and the VR will help a lot for a new shooter on a body with no IBIS. Lots of room to expand from there.
