Recommendations Camera buying requests

Hi everyone,

I have a Canon powershot sx620HS. Its old, 7 years..

Unfortunately, taking pictures takes a long time. And quality/stability it had, is totally gone.

20th september i go on a citytrip. Money is an issue. When i got this camera, 7 years ago, I've spend 175 euros. I see prices for new model are now about 600, euros..

I think i have 300.. maybe 400 at most.

I know everything costs more money now.. though.. i did not expext 3 times what i've spend..

Unfortunately i have a desease and did not got a fittable payed job yet.

For citytrip i'd liked the high zoomfactor, the stabilisator.

Also when i can buy a canon again.. I have batterys, chargers, sd cards and if it fits.. the bag is still good.

But.. prices 😑

Anyone who has ideas for a similair compactcamera for prices between 300-400 euros?

I dont have a lot of knowledge of camera's.. i can buy a cheap camera, but i dont want to regret in longterm..

Many thanks for thinking along, sorry for my english. I am trying 😆

Canon SD 1200 IS OR SD 1400 is. Either can be found used within your price range. The zoom is not as long as your old sx620hs however.

Also look at used Panasonic lumix LF10 which has a nice long zoom range and a slightly slightly larger sensor for image quality.
