Is it possible? Course it is. Here are 10 awesome camera / lens combos under £500 that I’ve personally used over the years. I’ll even pop some other suggestions at the end of the blog.
alternate choices:
DMC-GX85: slightly larger, usually all black
DC-GF9: smaller, no viewfinder, classic look
DC-GF7: compact, possible sweet spot?
tempting entry gear:
Olympus E-PL3: tiny, no flash or viewfinder, proprietary USB cable
E-PL2: small, pop-up flash
cheap starter lenses:

This is a radio-controlled watch with Multi-Band 5 functionality, compatible with standard radio waves from five stations worldwide. It comes equipped with convenient features like world time and alarm functions, making it useful for business settings. The watch case features a stainless steel cover that combines both hairline and mirror finishes, enhancing its overall quality and feel.
A500WA is another retro alternative, minus wave reception but more old-school than the Royale

This one looks legit with a bracelet. It's pretty big though. And it has a 16mm lug width! :(
