Budget Hybrid Camera for Student Photography/Videography

Hi all, I'm a complete beginner when it comes to cameras and I'm a little overwhelmed by the amount of options so I thought I'd get some more opinions.

I'm a uni student who needs a camera to shoot both photo and video for different digital photography and cinematography classes. I have some experience using a BMPCC 4k but that's really all I've used so far. I'd be using the camera for studio and street photography as well as student films and documentary.

I've been looking at a used Lumix GH5, but I've seen mixed opinions on how the camera performs for photography. Are there any other excellent Hybrid camera options that you'd suggest?

Thank you all in advance :)

Hi everyone, I'm after a new daily driver and I'm considering a mk7 or mk7.5 golf.

I would consider a mk6 GTI but I know the likelihood of finding one that hasn't been thrashed are slim.

I've never had a Euro car before, so I've done a bit of googling and know I should look out for issues with the timing belt and water pumps at high kms, but that's about it.

Is there anything else I should know or be wary of when it comes to Golfs?
