Hi all,

My name is Michael from the Northern Suburbs of Melbourne. I am interested in Portrait/nature-scenic photography but with so many camera's to choose from I am a little lost as I am a total beginner. A friend has suggested that the 'glass' of the camera is important. He has suggested I look at the Cannon G1X. Whilst at the camera shop I was also shown the Sony NEX-3N.

I really liked the image of the 3N but also notice there was no viewfinder. It was only digital.

I am really looking for some suggestion about the above, and at this stage of photography how concerned do I have to be about Aperture and also not having a viewfinder if suggestions point me to choose Sony NEX 3N.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Regards
Michael.
