What is your budget? There are plenty of β€œsmall” cameras that run the gamut of price from very reasonable to very expensive. Is a long zoom range important to you? Then consider the Sony HX99 or the Panasonic Lumix ZS-70 or 80. Both are excellent cameras. If price is not an issue, then consider something like the Sony RX100 VI or VII. They zoom to 200mm eq. and have a 1” type sensor. The Canon G7X/G7XII is less expensive and is pocket sized, but not much of a zoom range. If you want to go really compact and still have a good camera, there is the Canon G9X. Or your cellphone. At the end of the day, we would need a bit more information in order to adequately answer your question.

This camera fits in your pocket, has a native 24-720 mm Zeiss lens, shoots pans four ways, shoots RAW, does fill flash, has a accurate pop up view finder. What else could you possibly need. And pop up auto fill flash.

OH, it also takes very sharp images if that matters.

And Erp1938, B&H will give you professional advice on a quality small camera. Plus you'll be able to test it to see if it is the right camera for you.
Good luck and enjoy your trip to NY


Just remember, B&H closes at sunset on Fridays and is closed all day Saturdays. They are open on Sundays, however.

....and I concur, amazing place for anyone interested in photography of all kinds.

Agreed... the body with the 18-140 and an Optek wrist strap is 1 lb 12 oz... with the 16-50 it's 1 lb 6 oz.
