Budget - £150 - £200
Use - mostly indoor family photos, general purpose

with my first daughter imminent having had a conversation with a friend recently the suggestion of buying a better camera than what I currently have seems more appealing than ever.

Currently only have camera phone (HTC for what it matters)

Currently I am looking at a canon Eos M, but am put off by 2 things

1 - The reports on the general slowness of the AF
2 - the flash has to be attached separately and seems to make the camera not that "compact"

Will the above 2 issues get on my nerves much, or should I just go for the Eos M ?

If not what alternatives are there at this price point that won't sacrifice on picture quality ?


I am not looking to get into photography in anyway, this will be for general point and shoot type stuff. I am assuming, given my needs a compact/mirrorless is the way to go rather than a DSLR ?
 
For my money you'd be better off with s too end compact as it sounds like you want something simple and povkrtablebhave a look at the canon s1xx powerdhot range better than most pocket sized and should be achievable in budget.
 
been and bought a Sony A5000 today.

Had a £40 argos voucher and they ad it on sale for £269.99 so it only ended up costing 229.99.

Only tested it in the house so far but more than happy with it :)
