I have till 630€ and was thinking in buying something like this (ordered by preference):
SONY DSC-RX 100 III
PANASONIC Lumix DMC-TZ101
CANON PowerShot G7 X Mark II
But a friend told me to invest instead in something like this:
SONY Alpha 6000
read fate's comment afterwards.
any thoughts or alternative suggestions in the same price range?- depends on what you are using it for.. if you just want an everyday carry camera then RX100 or the Pana-TZ101 will be great, Canon is nice too.....futurefood
- you really can't go wrong with one of these three cameras. Personally, I use the RX100 mk1. I carry it around pretty much everywhere. i dont like....futurefood
- the pop-up viewfinder on the mk3, so PanaTZ101 looks interesting if looking for built in EVF.futurefood
- Instead of A6000, have you checked out the recent Fuji APS-C
lineup? great cameras!futurefood - additionally,
not sure about sony rx100 mk3 or the pana/canon,futurefood - but the rx100 mk1 is built like a mini tank, i must have dropped it from standing height +10x now, still works 100%. just a note..futurefood
- thanks futurefood. your first two comments were my initial thought but...oey
- my friend ask me why pay for carl zeiss if I can have a full frame camera for the same price with detachable lenses and great quality as well.oey
- i read before that the A600 was full frame but it's actually not.oey
- yea, they are damn expensive for what they are. full frame? nice!
go for it. that will be my next camera purchase in the near futurefuturefood - thats why i bought rx100 mk1, found one for $100. the quality is just right for a pocket camera
let us know what you get!futurefood

If you can ... DLSR + Tilt-Shift Lens = Architect Bliss

Budget (or did I miss something)? That's the most important question.
I'd get a Sony A7s of Panasonic G4 (Panasonic seems to be doing a good job establishing themselves as solid dslr video players).
Fuji XT1 for interchangeable lenses and great looks.
None of those are cheap, though.

- No budget really. Although I'm expecting to spend ± $1000 US.waterhouse

Sony Rx100
or Fuji X30
- I used my X10 to destruction, then upgraded to the X20 - adore this series of cameras. Some work to get results you are happy with but worth the perseverance.face_melter

4k video will be tough to have options...
- Can you tell me what you mean?waterhouse
- I don't think there are many 4k also not too big camera that's made for both video and photo.pango
- I see. That's too bad, as I'm sure compact cameras will shoot 4k in a few years.waterhouse

I recently bought a Sony a6000 and it's awesome. all the benefits of a full size dslr in a tiny package you can fit in your (somewhat big) pocket.
manual controls
interchangeable lenses
viewfinder
tilt screen
aps-c sensor
24mp
great in low light
fastest focusing in the price pointIt's a big brother to the NEX-5t ^^
- ah! I'm inclined to buy it. there's a set like this: http://www.mediamark…oey

take a look at these (basically the same, different branding and price).
Leica D-LUX (Typ 109) or Panasonic LX100
- I have a Lumix like that, good little shooter and the new models are a huge step up from their old onesmonospaced

Lots of option on the Fujifilm X series as sounded by inteliboy.
- except no 4k.
Just give up on 4k. life will be easier.pango
- except no 4k.

I'd aim for:
*APS-C or bigger sensor
*interchangeable
*manual controls
*electronic viewfinderlots of options in the fuji x range for this:

Do you want interchangeable lens?
- I think I'd like that capability. Unless the camera comes with an amazingly versatile lens.waterhouse

None interchangeable Lens camera that does 4k

Saw this the other day

24-600mm fixed lense. No 4K video though.... still the range might be nice for a family cam.

I just got a second-hand Sony NEX-5t
Really small, huge sensor, interchangeable lenses, wifi, great reviews, relatively cheap, nice grip.
Haven't had a chance to use it much yet but it seems great.
