Yep, I started my camera journey with a Canon EOS 400D, a good starter camera for the time, but limited, it was a DSLR camera, and at the time it was great, full clarity in the view finder, but almost ten years later I bought a Lumix GX80, an EVIL camera, and the viewfinder was just amazing with how many tools you could have to help you, I loved the digital level feature, it helped me a lot!
And now with my Lumix S5, another EVIL camera, the EVF is better, and I have better lenses, seriously the Lumix S5 24-105 f4 is just fantastic allround, the Sigma Contemporary 100-400mm is awesome as a budget super telezoom lens and the standard Lumix S 50mm f1.8 is just a fantastic portrait lens.
All weather sealed and relatively cheap.
The Lumix S5 is a brilliant full frame budget camera, it is still a camera though, so it is still expensive, but less expensive than most other fullframe cameras sold today.
I got it last year, but am already planning on extending my camera collection with a Sony A7 IV, for it’s much better AF, when I have enough money to spend on one and some good lenses, I will. No rush though, I am in no hurry and my S5 is fantastic in the meantime
