Hey folks,

I'm in the market for a fixed lens camera with a small form factor for those times when I don't want to lug around my main mirrorless setup. I'll be using it in muddy/dusty environments around water bodies all day, so durability would be nice but if it brakes not a big deal.

A high optical zoom is essential.

Here's what I'm currently working with: - Fujifilm X-T1 - Nikon D5300 - Several lenses ranging from 11-16mm to 300mm, plus converters

My main focus is on wildlife headshots for 5x7 and 4x6 prints, timelapse, and short detailed shots of animals 1080p for social media.

I'm looking for a used camera that's durable, has a higher optical zoom (600mm equivalent and more), and can shoot nice-looking 1080p at 60fps preferably(an upgrade over my Fuji's 30fps).

I'm not looking to invest in new gear

I prefer affordable, second-hand options.

Here's what I've found in my price 250cad ebay/fb marketplace

  • Fujifilm FinePix S1 - $240 CAD
  • Canon PowerShot SX540 - $225 CAD
  • Nikon B500 - $170 CAD
  • Fuji FinePix S9900 - $80 CAD

Any advice or recommendations? ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆcanada

Thanks!
