>>2677800Thing is, you could get that point and shoot and probably be pleased enough with it for a short while, but then you would soon begin to chafe at its limitations and wonder whether or not it was worth the hassle and if you should've just stuck with your smartphone and saved the cash.
These inexpensive pocket cameras, excepting the toughcams that are mud/water/shock resisting and the high end ones that come with a much larger sensor, are going extinct.
No one buys them anymore bar grandparents.
It's not that they're suddenly shit and can't take good pics, especially in the right hands, but phone cams have become good enough that nobody considers them.
Thus the models that stick around are the ones that are either able to provide far, far better image quality compared to the top of the line smartphone cam, or are a specialty camera designed for outdoorsy pursuits where the delicate smartphone just won't survive.
In a word, I would say that they're pretty much obsolete; if not now, then in a year or two.
So if you're really interested, seriously interested - interested enough to spend cash on this potential hobby, don't bother with that camera and others like it.
If you're still one the fence, use whatever camera you currently have, be it a smartphone or some pointandshoot you've got lying in a drawer somewhere. Play around and save the cash until you're sure.
If you want to spend the money then people here will rattle off some models of interest.
>>2677806>Poorfag here looking for a low priced but good camera for urban exploring and survival photography anyone got any ideaswhat this guy says
>>2677820I would be more inclined to spring for something like the ricoh gr, or maybe the nikon coolpix a if you can still get it for real cheap, and some kind of led light panel or flashlight.
It's got the wide field of view for interior shots, and it's discrete and pocketable for when you have to skedaddle in a hurry once security spots you.
