Camera Advice

Driving Baja from TJ to Cabo ( on the 1) in a few weeks, my camera skills do not exist, I would like something that will take good pictures while driving ...we are taking a go pro but I'd like something better than my phone to document the trip

Thanks in advance

Great pocket camera is the Sony Cyber Shot DSC-RX100 VA.  It also has a nice flip up screen if you wanted to vlog some too.  Little pricey, but you pay for what you get.

Check out used gear at KEH. I’ve bought some lenses from them that were like brand new and saved a mint.

KEH, Adorama, and B&H have used selections.  Great tip, Mike!

If you're actually going to take pictures 'while driving', you might want to investigate 'Image Stabilization'. As well as taking out the damage insurance on the rental car...

May not really need that great a camera, as the bouncing and blurry windows will provide a lousy result anyway.:)

I'll be passenger while taking the pictures- friend of mine has a house in cabo and we are taking a car to leave there, flying back

If it’s not worth stopping for, it’s not photo worthy...
