Your Iphone will suffice! And, it sounds as if you could use some Iphone practice.

My family and I are going to Italy at the end of August, and I'm debating whether to take my D750 with me, or just rely on my iphone 14 Pro. Honestly, I dont have any intention of using a tripod anywhere we go, most of what I shoot will likely only be "snapshots" so I don't know if I want to bring the camera. If I do, I think I will limit my lens to either a 35mm or 50mm. I have a Nikkor 18-300, but I feel like it will get pretty heavy a few days in. We are mostly going to be in Rome, with a one day trip to Venice (overnight) and a one day trip to Napels (overnight) thrown in. We'll be there 8 days. We also have an overnight layover in Stockholm coming back, we intend to do some sightseeing there, while we have the chance.

Has anyone faced this? What did you do, and were you glad, or did you wish you'd made a different decision?

Thanks!

Mike, if most of what you take will be “snapshots,” then just take your iPhone 14 Pro. I have an iPhone 12 Pro Max and continue to get blown away with the pictures I’m able to take with it.
If you intend to make 30 X 45 or larger prints, that’s another story. Then you would obviously need your “real” camera.

I'm not familiar with "smart phones". What level of telephone is possible with the cameras on them? In my travels, although most of my photos are taken fairly close up, there are many for which significant "reach" is needed.
