New camera advice

[philv]

Hi

I currently have a canon ixus 265 hs compact camera.

I'd like something better.
It's decent enough, but have ne er been amaxed with tne detail, etc.

Is there a small dslr that anyone can reccomend?

I don't wan anything too big.
The smalled tne better.

Budget around 350.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

For £350, unfortunately, you're not going to get anything good, unless you buy second hand. For £450, though, you have much more options, like the Olympus om-d Em10, Sony A6000 and Nikon D5500. They're all good in their own way and suitable for serious photography.

Sony Cyber-Shot RX100

This is a great little camera. It's not a DSLR but you can do an awful lot with it.

The RX100 police will be along shortly to tell you it's the second coming of Christ brought to earth in digital camera form. I have a MKI RX100 and it's been an expensive, unreliable piece of st.

RX100 of some kind

(failing that I am sure you used to be able to get the Canon G7x for good money and its essentially the same kind of thing as the RX100. In short, if you want better, you want a bigger sensor. From a compact the first step is of course 1 inch sensor type compacts like the aforementioned RX100, then you're into micro4/3 and APS-C mirrorless cameras, though Panasonic did make a compact with a m4/3 sensor in it)
