>nting it on photo paper still do
I am sorry, about what drawing you are talking about ? I do not think that taking out highlights from sky, giving photo some contrast or croping image is a drawing.
For me photography must not only give you a blank image, but also emotion which is tied to that image so in most cases retouching is as much important as the camera which takes an image.
Also if you are taking photos in RAW image or JPG ? JPG gives much more contrast to colors however RAW gives much more information in picture. What to do then ? means photographer with low level camera can take better looking pictures ?
Please look at picture bellow, do you see a drawing on a picture ? Ive taken this image on 2019 august in Poland. Did slight edits with lightroom

Hi,
Getting photos off an SD card is simply a matter of buying a USB SD card reader (like this one, but be careful of cheap ones, they're probably slow).
In the mirrorless vs DSLR debate I can't really give much advice except that the choice that you make now could likely tie you down for a while in terms of buying lenses for a specific format. For that reason I would recommend getting a cheaper DSLR from an established brand (eg Nikon/Canon) as if you upgrade later all your lenses will work on bodies from the same brand and there will be a huge scope. However do research here and find the best camera at your price point.
I would suggest going for APS-C sensors (crop, not full frame) because they tend to be cheaper and perfectly good for beginners. However when shooting on a crop sensor lenses look more "zoomed in" than on a full frame, 1.5x more telephoto. For example a 50mm lens on full frame looks like how your eye sees a scene but on an APS-C camera it will be a tighter crop, the equivalent of a 75mm lens on a full frame. For that reason, if you want the 50mm equivalent for crop you are looking more towards a 35mm lens.
I have an APS-C Nikon camera (the D7200) and absolutely love the 35mm. I use it for nearly everything. However a prime lens (one focal length) is not particularly adaptable, buying a zoom lens (like 18-70) would give you greater range.
