• What would your wife be using the camera for? If its kid pictures then would the camera on a modern smartphone suffice? Would definitely solve the self conscious aspect of carrying around a DSLR and even the cheap Huawei phones come with very capable cameras these days

    congrats on mini mrJL also !

  • Cheers! She's really into the great outdoors in all aspects, from the garden to day long hikes so it needs to be capable of capturing decent shots in those contexts, plus family photography. I put together photo books of our trips just for us and it's always disappointing to see a photo that looks decent on a phone come out terribly next to the DSLR shots when they're in print so I do think that something in between those two points could be useful

  • What phone are you using ? Most should be capable of producing good A4 prints.
    Also try using an app that allows you to shoot RAW.
    For what it's worth I don't notice too much of a difference in quality at A4 between a 16MP m4/3 camera and a typical 12MP phone camera.

    Also, what @SuperSalat said re using a phone for kids.
