Question for y'all, and I'll keep it short.
Travelling to Europe in 4 days. In the market for a camera that meets the following criteria:
- easy to carry, fits in pockets (I'll be mobile, walking around a ton)
- great picture quality (better than iPhone 6 Plus)
- sub $600
- shoots fast and is easy to use
So this is where the question splits off. Should I even invest in a camera at this point? Or should I just use my iPhone? I'm not photographer by any means, but I was thinking that if I'm going sightseeing all over Europe, I should have a decent camera to capture great moments and monuments.
If you all think I should get a camera, do you have any recommendations? I've been doing a fair bit of research and I cannot seem to decide on a particular camera. I'm stuck between the Sony RX-100 (mk1) and Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS60.
Please help a fellow member out. TIA

I've actually been looking for a small point and shoot and the Sony RX-100 seems to be the best in the market right now. I'd get it simply because, while the iPhone can capture some really nice images, the flexibility of a zoom and manual controls is something I really need. My advice is to get it.
