My grandson is now living in New York. He recently came out for a visit. His entire family would be going to the Philippines over Christmas/New Year, and he wanted a small, very portable camera that he could use while travelling. I only had one camera that fit the bill: My trusty eight-year-old Sony RX100 M3.

Although it was a bit of a sacrifice I gave it to him.

I then immediately ordered the most recent version: a Sony RX100 MVII. So not so much of a sacrifice after all. For a review of this camera see here. So far I’ve been very pleased with it.

Below: the two cameras. On left the Sony RX100 M3 and on the right the Sony RX100 MVII
