My favorite camera is a Samsung P & C compact. It goes everywhere with me in my 'man bag'.
As an advanced member of the Photographic Society in the UK, I recon I'm doing OK with it. OK, so it's only one of eight cameras I have, but it's the one I use most.
I have often noticed that other street and event photographers, usually with BIG DSLRs, eye me with looks that range from contempt to pity. I don't give an aperture for that ! My choice of any particular camera is based on the conditions I expect to encounter, not my personal 'street cred' or as a penis substitute.
(Am I allowed to say that ?)
BTW - just joined your happy band of snappers today. Hope we get on fine guys and guyettes.
Just a couple of recent pics below to show what a pocket compact can do ...
