Source: Digitec Galaxus... Die kleine Canon braucht recht lange fürs Einschalten, reagiert danach aber fix. Nicht nur im Urlaub praktisch: In ihrem Mini-Gehäuse steckt ein 40-fach-Zoom; damit füllen auch sehr weit entfernte Motive das Bild aus. Was fehlt, ist ein Sucher - für den war im Mini-Gehäuse kein Platz.
Mit knappen Budget heißt es wählen: jedes Motiv heranholen mit der Sony Cybershot HX350 (300 Euro) oder doch lieber richtig gute Fotos mit der Nikon D3500 (340 Euro). Wer mehr ausgeben, aber wenig mitnehmen will, greift zur Sony Cybershot RX100 VI (1140 Euro), einer Mini-Kamera mit Maxi-Qualität...
Bei den Kompaktkameras holt die Sony Cybershot RX100 VI den Testsieg - mit Top-Bildqualität und -Ausstattung in einem Minigehäuse. aber eben auch mit einem Preisschild von 1300 Euro. Nur 370 Euro kostet der ebenso kompakte Preis-Leistungs-Sieger: Die Panasonic Lumix TZ91 ist mit noch mehr Zoom die ideale Reisekamera, schwächelt aber bei der Bildqualität, wenn`s dunkler wird...
