Of course they told you to get a d450. They'd be insane to offer the point and shoot that would fetch them a lot less. If you're looking for something 250-300 euro, get an old Pentax k1000 or a minolta xg-m, a couple of lenses, and black and white film and the gear to develop your own film. Much more rewarding than just point and shoot and upload. Besides, you can scan the black and white negs easy enough.
