hihii! ive always been into photography and i travel / take trips often so i decided to finally get a camera to be more present in my trips and to not overflow my phone storage.

im looking for something that will mainly take good nature / landscape pictures, here and there id use it for hang outs, bdays, indoors etc, thats compact, and at least a little beginner friendly. im not interested in anything w special lenses, and a bit of a clearer and warmer tone would be nice.

since itll be my first camera, id want it to be something i can learn to use over time and grow alongside it, and wont need to switch to a new one that soon. its also important to me that its at least a little budget friendly, since im a student.

some of the cameras ive been considering are lumix dmc sz10 and lumix zs/tz 99, as ive heard lumix is good for outside photography.

happy to answer any questions and hope to get some help / insight 🥹 any recommendations and opinions are more than welcome !! im going to greece in sept so id love to practice with settings before that :)
