I’m wondering if there is a recommendation for a small camera to take hiking, or just for general convenience. I like to turn my phone off when I’m out so I can properly disconnect, plus I’m winding down my phone dependency in general.
Something to point and shoot would be nice, but I’m potentially interested in learning a bit about using some actual camera techniques.
I’m very pleased with my Canon PowerShot G5 X MkII. Originally bought for concerts etc. where big / changeable lens cameras aren’t allowed, but I’ve been using it more and more because it’s good enough and is less effort to lug around than my mirrorless. The main downsides for me are (1) it doesn’t cope as well with low light and (2) it can’t do proper telephoto (it’s 24-120mm equivalent).
