I brought a canon m6 last year and would recommend it.

It's a new style mirror-less camera, essential an slr with interchangeable lenses but without the view finder so it's a lot smaller than an slr. The rear screen flips round for self takes, and it has near field connectivity so you can connect it to your phone, which allows you to send pictures to your phone instantly and also you can use it too control the camera and see what the camera sees.

The standard lens isn't great but no different to any of the standard lenses on digi slr' s and most people couldn't tell the difference anyway.

I still use my original TXi`s, but one of the antennas has broken and is now sat along the bottom of the alarm due to a very shoddy self repair attempt; but despite this it still works, still connects to the receiver and doesn't miss a beat even in the rain. Probably tempted fate now but they are 19 years old and still perfect. Hard to replace them when they are that solid.

My favourite thread was the telescopic baiting pole one
