I'm interested in learning to use manual mode effectively and would
appreciate recommendations for a good non-DSLR camera for this purpose.
Features I'm looking for are built-in optical zoom and large, clear LCD.

I'm not interested in a DSLR at this point due to overall cost, the need
for multiple lenses, etc.

Most interested in shooting nature, landscapes, etc.

Thanks!

While I learned using an old Minolta XG-1 and later a Canon Elan II, I
now also have a Canon S80 digital which has all the manual modes you
would likely want. Nice big 2.5" LCD, pretty good zoom (3.5x
optical), 8MP, built like a tank....Shutter priority, aperature
priority, full manual etc....
