Is the nikon d3300 good for beginners?

The Nikon D3300 is a good choice for a beginner, especially if you buy it used. It's an entry DSLR with a 24.2-megapixel APS-C sensor, and it's cheap on the used market. The body has no stabilisation, so pair it with a stabilised lens for slow shutter speeds.

For a sensible starting kit, I'd look at:

• Nikon AF-S DX 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G VR II for everyday shooting
• Nikon AF-S DX 18-140mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR if you want one lens for travel
• Nikon AF-S DX 55-200mm f/4-5.6G ED VR II for reach

Before you commit, read your first camera and buying used.
