I've been interested in photography for a number of years now but have never taken the plunge and actually bought a camera. I've always had smartphones with excellent cameras (pixel 4) and have a good understanding of editing software and manual controls on third party apps to really push the photos i take to the limit.
I'm wanting to go to the next level and spend money on a proper camera though. I like to take stills (not interested in video) of anything any everything- landscapes, wildlife, sunsets, light trails/long exposure, buildings etc.
My budget is definitely under £500 and im not wanting anything huge- ideally something fairly small/light to chuck in a backpack. I'd like a good point and shoot option but also the ability to mess with settings for long exposure shots. I also like the idea of seeing the image before it is taken (my understanding is that mirorless cameras can do this but dslr cannot?).
Any suggestions would be much appreciated!
I've seen things like the fujifilm xt100 receive good write ups but no idea if that would be suitable for me.
Thanks in advance
