Enthusiast point & shoot, or beginner DSLR?


At the moment, I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place trying to decide between a Canon Powershot G7X, and a Nikon D3200.

Best lens for wide angle fashion shoot?


My sister is starting her fashion label. She wants to do a editorial shoot in the forest. There are a lot of bush tracks in our area but because it is hilly here there aren't big open spaces to play around with. We are restricted to tracks with a bank on one side and drop off the other side, with beautiful trees on either side and a stream running below… Get the picture? So anyway, she wants shots of her models on the track and also down the bank a little (with very little space to step back and take the shot!) so we are needing a flexible wide lens. Also my camera is a Nikon with cropped sensor. Any suggestions?
