Thank you for your suggestions. Why spend money on poor quality? The flip-out screen of my Canon Powershot is defective so I need a new camera anyway - one with the properties mentioned by you. This way I will protect my poor neck and be able to take pictures of magnified objects. I often wished that I could take pictures through my microscope, for instance when an egg of Cheilosia pubera hatched, and a very beautiful white larve appeared.

I hope it is okay if I contact you later when I have surfed the Internet for cameras.
