That’s an excellent link for much more advanced photography than I do. I will always remain a less than beginner I guess (my choice). I like a good under $300 point and shoot camera so I don’t have to think about settings.
Definitely reasons to find out from the instructor which features to want.
I will replace my current Canon Elph (powershot) with the 360 when it comes on sale again. But I am not taking a class and know what I want for features in the easy to use camera. Smartphone cameras still are not as nice.
