[QUOTE="Geoffc, post: 272573, member: 8705"] I'm going to Paris with my wife at the weekend and I'm trying to decide what to take as it's more of a mini break than a photography trip, albeit we are both keen photographers. On one hand we could go the DSLR route and I could take my D800, 24-120 and 16-35, whilst she was going to take her D7100, 18-200 and 10.5mm fisheye. This is fine except we would have to carry it around all day and it attracts more attention. The alternative is that we take our P7100 coolpix cameras which will be light and unobtrusive. I even had a fleeting thought that it could be a project for my Iphone 5S. As I said this is not a photo trip specifically and when we go to the States in June we are taking everything we own :D So do I go for quality or convenience as the P7100 is not a bad camera and it shoots raw, but you can't abuse the ISO and dynamic range like you can with the DSLRs? Oh and I've only got a total of 10KG baggage allowance. [/QUOTE]
