I wonder if you guys can recommend a good compact camera, (point and shoot), that has full manual settings also.
It's for a good friend of mine that was going to buy a DSLR at the same time as me, (just before Christmas), as we wanted to learn photography at the same time. Unfortunately his circumstances have changed and he is no longer able to go down the DSLR route.
He wants to be able to learn about how aperture and shutter speed affect the photo so full manual mode is a must.
I have assured him shear pixel quantity is not necessarily the ultimate sign of image quality as he was purely looking for the highest Mpixels for his money, but as a result he has asked me to find him some examples of what I think is a good compact.
Unfortunately I have never been into compacts so I have not got a clue!
He said he wants to spend around £200 but if i know him if it is worth it he will budge but £300 would probably be the max he would be able to spend.
What do you think.
