Not too much, maybe if there is controlling shutter speed and such

Maybe a couple

Yes

Yes, alot
Miscellaneous
Are there particular brands you like or hate?
I would prefer Canon or Sony but I don't "hate" any brand
Are there particular models you already have in mind?
Sony T7, Casio Ex-S600

Wide angle and image stabilization are always a plus!
