Hello, as the title says, I'm looking to buy a camera for personal use.I have some knowledge of photography since I worked in the field some time ago, however, due to personal reasons I changed careers.I'm looking to buy a camera for my own use, to take travel photos, maybe some photoshoots for friends or family, but I don't have anything else planned.I have a budget of 500/600 USD (10000 MXN).Any recommendations?

The R100 and R50 are the only mirrorless cameras in your price range, though believe the R50 to be vastly superior to the R100, and I always suggest the newest technology that you can afford.

I would agree with Tom, I had the R50 and traded it for the R7..... Should have kept the R50
R5 Mk II ~ R6 Mk III ~ R7
Lenses: RF Trinity and others

Any current digital camera can do that and do it very well so the choice is open to you. The R100 Mirrorless Camera with 18-45mm Lens will work fine and is around $550 I believe.
