Hi fellow TP members,
My neice's partner has asked my advice about buying a camera in the £300-400 price range. He wants to buy new.
He's said it's for general picture taking rather than driven by an interest in photography as a pursuit in itself, and has given "wildlife" and "old buildings" as examples of the sorts of things he likes to photograph.
Until he mentioned wildlife, I was thinking of a compact - maybe an older model RX100 or something, but wildlife would likely require a bigger telephoto reach than most compacts have (that I'm aware of), so maybe a bridge camera would be a better choice?
I don't think he wants an interchangeable lens system.
Does anyone have any suggestions for good cameras in that price range please?
Thanks.
