Camera Recommendation for Occassional Product Shots and Personal Photography

    Hi all,

    I dropped my camera yesterday and am now looking for a new one.

    As you can see from my sig, I run a website and have the ocassional need to take product shots. However, I don't think this would justify the expense of a DSLR.

    Could someone recommend a camera under €200 that would take decent product shots and is also ok for personal use?

    Also, with a €200 budget, would I be better off buying a new lower end camera or a used higher end one?

    Many thanks in advance.

    There are a multitude of P&S's that will fit your Budget.

    Getting a more expensive camera will not help you a whole lot unless you want to spend some time learning about Photography & Exposure. If you do that then a Bridge Camera (either new or used) will do a whole lot more, but you will have to know how to operate it correctly as the better image comes from the Photographer & not the Camera.
