How about sony T3? Is there anything better than it at a similar price?

Sony t series (28-11) Sony t series is a product specially designed for fashion people, and it is a typical "card machine". The lens adopts "Carl Zeiss" technology and is equipped with Sony's own ccd. T-series configuration is often the forefront of Sony's fashion features (this description is not the same as professional). Many popular digital functions can be embodied in this model, such as 5 times optical zoom of periscope lens, Bionz image processor, DRO optimization system, smiley shutter, and large touch screen. Not ashamed of the name of the fashion series. Features: periscope lens, Carl Zeiss lens, comprehensive scene function, new model with high-definition image shooting, iso+ccd double anti-shake, large LCD screen with touch function (some models don't), built-in multiple optimization editing functions, convenient and diverse image output, etc. The most obvious disadvantages are: poor hand-held grip of card shape, small maximum aperture of periscope lens, no manual function, no custom white balance function, and poor cost performance in Sony. Not counting discontinued models, as of November 28, its main models are: T7, T2, T3, T77, T7 and T5. The following data are all still life photography (commercial photography, from the perspective of analysis, irrelevant data are omitted). T5, features: 72P moving image shooting (one at most 1 minutes), 1.1 megapixel Carl Zeiss lens 1/2.3, 5x optical zoom, 3.5 touch screen, double anti-shake (high iso+ccd). F: 3.5-4.4 (the minimum aperture is weak). No wide angle. Macro: w: 8cm t: 8cm Close focus: w: 1cm-2cm Shooting mode: automatic, automatic program, scene. White Balance: No customization. T77 without custom white balance function is basically the same as 7. T7 has joined the popular functional scene recognition, which is still a more practical function for beginners with low requirements. Compared with t5, the optical zoom is 4 times, and the rich scene modes and face recognition functions, as well as various optimization functions based on the camera processor, are obviously aimed at the majority of primary users, making it easier to use. The fuselage comes with 4G memory. Besides, T-series cameras are too homogeneous. There is still no custom white balance. T3: The function hasn't changed much, but the graffiti function has been added. Macro w: 8cm is slightly worse than other new T series. White balance: no customization function T7: 82 W pixels, white balance: no customization. Macro: Magnifier mode 1cm This series has several issues that most friends are concerned about. 1. The advantages of periscope lens are: compact structure, light weight, and little difference in sharpness between center and edge. Disadvantages are: dispersion control is not as good as telescopic lens, zoom speed is average, and it is difficult to get a large aperture due to structural restrictions. Knowing the positioning of this model is not difficult to choose. Obviously, the periscope lens is used to control the volume. Don't worry too much about its shortcomings. As technology matures, many past problems have become increasingly blurred. 2. Can it be used for still life photography? As of November 28, this model has not been launched with the function of custom white balance (manual white balance). This also has a lot to do with the positioning of this model. After all, it is really light, fashionable and simple to operate, which is what busy fashionistas need most. Because there is no custom white balance, it will bring the phenomenon of color cast of the subject under different light sources. Under standard sunlight (natural light), there should be no such problem. Therefore, unless you don't want to change the camera and want to shoot in sunlight or professional sunlight color temperature lighting, the answer is not recommended. Summary: With Sony's strong brand appeal, this fashionable model has indeed attracted many friends who choose the appearance as the condition. However, from the perspective of its cost performance, as of November 28, T7 26T77 25T2 159T3 219T7 151T5 is not very cost-effective, so it is recommended for features that like fashionable appearance and are easy to use. In this price range, Fuji, Ricoh, Canon, etc. all have models with good cost performance.
