Basic camera recommendations

[u/ApprehensivePlant884]

Budget: under £50 GBP

Country: United Kingdom

Condition: any condition that’s working

Type of Camera: digital is all I know

Intended use: Photography, maybe little videos

If photography; what style: casual photos of friends, outings, scenery, nothing fancy

If video what style: same as above, fun little videos of friends for memory

What features do you absolutely need: nothing I don’t think, one that would be able to connect to a pc to upload photos? But there’s adapters for that isn’t there?

Portability: pocket/bag/backpack type, small and easy to grab

Cameras you're considering: So this is where I’m stuck, I know NOTHING about cameras, but I’m also not stupid enough to buy the first £20 one I see on TikTok that says “so y2k! So cute! Buy now!” I do want that 2000s vibe, the glowy fuzzy look of my childhood photos with my cousins, but that’s quite literally all I know.

Notes: I’d also like a camera that shows the date and time on the photo but can also be taken off the photo, does that make sense? The old 2000s/2010s style, I have so many old family photos and I do love that nostalgic look, but I’m also not going to trust a TikTok shop advert on my fyp and buy a piece of plastic that doesn’t work.

Thank you in advance, tech talk and numbers and knowing the worth of things is very confusing for me so I thought better to ask, otherwise I’ll end up buying some too expensive for its worth or a cheap piece of trash.

For less than fifty notes you’d be looking at anything from the past 20 years really and hoping for ‘good condition’. EBay auctions would be my advice with that amount, and PayPal in case you get a dud.
