OK - that makes sense. If she's already used DSLRs, then I can see that mirrorless is a natural progression (at least in terms of ease of handling). I just wondered if she was asking for mirrorless because she'd read somewhere on t'internet that they were the best thing since sliced bread - clearly not the case with MrsC. FWIW, all the various forums I read cite Sony as the go-to kit for mirrorless, but I suspect you may struggle with your budget (top-end Sony mirrorless are comfortably north of £3k - even the low-end stuff is over £500 for the body only) Secondhand is your only option within budget - Wex Photo has quite a few pre-owned Sony bodies available - https://www.wexphotovideo.com/used-..._Manufacturer=Sony&esp_category_pg=2As does Park Cameras https://www.parkcameras.com/c/2503/used?p=1&q=2503&v=0&me=_ca&f=br:47|ca:2554&x=br:1|ca No idea why the second link won't show as a hyperlink - copy & paste required into browser address bar Probably worth reading a few reviews first though...

I'm very pleased to say that I recently replaced my ancient (and mirrored) Olympus E400 with an ebay E410 body for under forty quid... all I want really is a digital back for my 4x5 stuff that doesn't require a mortgage The E410 is only a year less ancient than the E400, but I agree that £40 is a bargain. For comparison, the last physical print I did from my (now mortgage-free) Nikon full-frame was 6x3 (feet.....)
