What camera is good for me?

So i'm looking into buying a camera and its not really for photography but i will use it for that sometimes. I want the camera to film tutorials on nails and charms and vlogs and i want it to be around 200 dollars or less and i want it to focus really well during videos and pictures and when you zoom i need it to focus well too. I wan the camera to have very good sound and audio and to be able to hear myself when i play back videos because i don't want to speak trough a mic. I like nikon and canon and a little bit of sony and i want it to have a good design too. Please let me know any good camera for me. 10 points to best answer!

What should I do. I want a camera?

I want to get a Nikon camera because I love taking pictures. I'm not rich at all but the camera I want is expensive as f***. I'm 14 and probably to young for a job and my dad might give me like 20 $ towards it but I want to save up but I never receive money. I look to young to babysit and I don't think I could because I live in a bad neighborhood. Dog sitting isn't such a good idea. My mom has money but she won't give me any. We live in like a big house next to an ostrich farm but even if I do yard work she doesn't care. If I can't afford I Nikon camera I want to get a good quality one. Any suggestions on how to earn money?

How to get a shallow depth of field on a Nikon D5200 with 18-55mm lens?

Hi and thank you for reading and answering this question (if you decide to do so)

Problem:**I have tried and tried and failed, and failed to get a shallow depth of field in my images, actually I lie, I got it once but can't recreate it, and that once the background isn't too blurry, just a little.

I have studied online for hours, and watched continuous videos - still nothing. I kind of understand the concept, as in the 3 requirements for shallow DOF (shutter speed, Aperture, ISO) though still can't get that pro looking shallow depth of field (DOF) image.

***Settings I'm Using:
I'm not to sure about other DSLR cameras (as you can tell i'm not a pro) though on my Nikon D5200, I use the A setting on the dial (you can change aperture manually and camera auto changes shutter speed), my lens only allows a min aperture around f3.5, with ISO @ 400 (from what I learned this is the recommended 'safe' ISO setting). I'm then close to my subject (as in whole face covers/in frame, or sometimes a tad further (head and shoulders in frame. Though still no shallow DOF.

SO… Does anyone here own a DSLR and know how to get a great shallow DOF when they want it, on demand! Lol. And does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

Can i get arrested? Or charged with any criminal records?

About 6 months ago, I was on Xanax bars with a friend and we were bored walking around my neighborhood. Then we took another two and after that everything was a blur. Well, when i woke up the next day i heard that when I was on bars i was around my other friends house with no one inside, so i decided to sneak in (mind you this is what my friend that i took bars with told me) and i found the kitchen window open so i went in and i took water for myself and gave my friend that was outside and i went back inside looking for something, I don't know what. Going through my friends room i broke his Nikon camera by dropping it on the floor, i guess i panicked and left. But when i was leaving, his neighbor saw the whole thing saying i broke in and was gonna call the cops so i ran. The next day i woke up and i found out he didn't call the cops but told my friend and his mom. They got mad and he said i took two bags of quarters and broke their camera and why i did it? I then told them what happened and that i didn't take anything because the neighbor saw me walk out with nothing and the neighbor approved. Now we have been talking and he kind of forgave me but said i have to buy him a new camera lens which was $400, i told i don't have the money for that, i'll pay for a repair. He said okay and weeks later lying to me saying that he repaired it and it cost 300$ so i told him to show me the receipt and he refused so i didn't believe him and told him i'll pay him when he shows me a receipt. He was lying and showed me a receipt after a month which said 120$ so i said okay i'll pay you but it'll take time because my mom doesn't know and i don't want her to. So he gave me time and i haven't' payed him yet but i'm gonna pay him at the end of this month when i get my paycheck form my new job at publix. Now he's threatening me if i don't pay him by next week he'll call the cops and send me to small claims court. What can the cops do? Can they arrest me for something that happened 6 months ago? What can they charge me with? I'm scared.

Is there anyway to force advance the film on a Nikon F70 camera?

I recently acquired this camera and it was working fine for the first few exposures, however since the fifth snap the camera has insisted that it has reached the end of the film which it has not.

Which could be the smallest mechanical film SLR from Canon?

Recently I've been using a very nice FTb ql, but I'd like to know if during those days Canon also made a small, full featured all mechanical SLR, in the same league of its competitor like the Nikon FM2, Olympus OM-1 or Pentax MX.
I know that the AE-1 hit around that time and is small and nice but it also has an electronic shutter… So which could be the smallest mechanical Canon SLR?

How to access bulb mode on Nikon D5200?

When setting the shutter speed on the screen there's a circle with different speeds and there's a "b" mark which stands for bulb mode but when I scroll it won't select it it stops just before the "b" mark… Please tell me if there are other settings I must set in order to select bulb mode and make long exposure photos.
