Does elevation affect cameras?

I was in the adirondacks and when i reached the peak of the mountain my camera, a nikon coolpix L120, would not completely open the shutter so you were seeing some of it in your view angle. Is this just a coincidences as i was told a Best Buy or does an elevation increase affect cameras?

Nikon COOLPIX P600 vs Sony Alpha NEX 3N (or Alpha A5000)?

Which one would you recommend? I want to get a camera for making youtube vlog videos (mostly me sitting in front of the camera talking), but also a camera that we can use as a family for photos. These both look like good choices to me and are in my price range. What would your recommendation be? Do you have any experience with any of these cameras?

PS. A lot of people asked me why am I not getting a camcorder instead. I feel like this is sort of a compromise between a camera for photos and a camcorder. Also getting a camcorder in the same quality would cost much more from what I've heard.

PS2. No I probably won't have the money to buy myself an SLR… Do you think the quality will be THAT much worse?
