Sisters birthday is coming up and i think this would be a decent present. She's not a photographer but travels often and I figured that she would get good mileage out of a gift like this.

Right now she's using a Nikko point and shoot which is pretty good too so I'm thinking if I give her this new one, she'd pass her old one to me.

Any idea on what to buy and where?

If she takes selfies then the Sony a5100 would be a good choice, with remaining budget for other accessories like lenses etc.

If she is more interested in taking non-selfie photos then I would suggest getting a Fujifilm; maybe a Fujifilm XM1 and a good prime lens  thumbup.gif

Thanks for the quick response guys; these seem to be well in my budget according to Amazons prices.

Any recommendation on where to purchase them from?

Also, I don't think I'll be getting lens as well since she's just gonna be using them while traveling.

mirrorless camera lens isn't as huge as those DSLR ones
its just small...it won't weight much

Is there an easy way to tell if I'll be browsing for options online if one lens is for mirrorless cameras or not?

If you already don't plan to get lens upgrades, might as well go for RX100m3? Best compact you can get at the moment.

I've heard good things about this and old versions are good too right? Are they mirrorless?

I bought a5100 recently... quite amazed by the af speed and low light shooting. Before gst was rm1650 only. Big sensor = better image quality.
