— minimum equipment: it includes only the body itself (in the jargon — "carcass") of the camera, the lens must be purchased separately. On the one hand, this is not very convenient — there are additional difficulties associated with the search and selection of optics. On the other hand, this equipment allows you to choose the optics at your discretion, without relying on the choice of the manufacturer and without overpaying for a lens that may not be suitable. This is especially true in light of the fact that "whale" lenses have very limited characteristics, and are practically unsuitable for any kind of complex shooting. Therefore, advanced amateurs and professionals usually prefer to buy optics on their own, according to their own preferences and needs. Also, the "carcass" will be the best option if the farm already has one or more lenses, and you only need to change the camera itself.
