Hi I'm relatively new to site, but I hoped with so many experts you might be able to give me some advice.
I travel quite a bit in the developing world with my work and would love to capture some of what I see. So I can use it for talks, etc when I come home. However I'm not keen on dragging my D5100 and lens with me and sometimes big cameras draws to much attention or take up too much space.
So I wondered if there was a quality camera you guys could recommend that has similar creative controls to a DSLR, produces sharp images, light, small and affordable. Ideally I would prefer to stay with Nikon because i am familiar with the manual controls, but would consider another brand if it better suited my needs.
If you had some suggestions or if you already owe a camera you keep for travel. I would welcome your recommendations.
