Hi all,

I'm looking for a decent camera with the below in mind:

Budget: $600 (Flexible) *2nd-hands are fine by me
Type of Pictures: Landscape
Purpose: Purely Leisure

Most importantly, I need one with an external mic input.

With this camera, I will be doing some recording of my girlfriend playing piano.
Hence, since the image will be rather still, the sound that goes into the video will play a more important part than the video per se. It'll be best if the resolution is good, of course. But from what I gathered, it seems external microphones will be the way to go if I'm looking for high quality audio.

I've browsed around and found that Panasonic DMC-FZ300 is probably my best bet under these conditions.

Anyone has any other recommendations?
