In 2021 my wife and I are planning to take a 2-3 week trip to Europe. I’d like to focus on the trip, and not lug my overweight bag with my Nikon D850, lenses, flash, etc. Can anyone suggest a single camera, that’s easy to carry with good image quality? I’d prefer a camera with a viewfinder and one lens, preferably zoom. I’ve had pocket Canon and Nikon cameras, but not in the last 10 years or so. Not sure what the current state of that art is. Please give me your thoughts. Thank you!
With the gear I have I'd use the D810 which has a built in flash and at 36 M pixels is plenty for travel photos and mout the 28-300 zoom which would cover any focal length needs likely to be required. Another option is to simply mount a 24 or 36mm prime on your D850. Take a day as a tourist in your town with that combination and see what you think, it might surprise you.
I also did a little web browsing and found the following that may help. Good luck and enjoy your trip.
