One solution I'm considering is getting an iPhone and relying just on its camera, and I wonder what y'all think >of that.

Depends on what you're going to do with the captures.

My son has made wonderful images with his iphone. He added an aux lens attachment - Olloclip - http://www.olloclip.com/ to give a little more versatility to it. But the limit is really what the ultimate output will be. He makes some nice 8"X10" prints but mainly outputs to the Internet thru Instagram.

Subject: camera for travel and hiking



I'll be spending the month of September in England visiting family in Clacton-on-Sea and London and doing a nine-day walking tour from Thetford to Hunstanton to Comer. Of course I'd like to make photos while I'm there, but will be traveling light. My only digital camera at present is a ist* DS with a selection of M and A lenses. I don't think I want to drag that along, even with just one or two lenses, especially on the walk.

I'd be interested in recommendations for a versatile weather resistant compact camera. One solution I'm considering is getting an iPhone and relying just on its camera, and I wonder what y'all think of that.

Thanks,
