Hi guys! I’d like to consider a small portable camera to carry around whenever traveling, that takes about as little space and weight as possible. The idea is replacing the mobile phone on a stick, as a lot can go wrong when attempting a silly picture near a lake or waterfall (you get the idea).
So I guess no additional lenses or similar, just a portable camera that takes good pictures. As it might be also for my gf’s use, one of the features I’d like it to have probably would be a reversible screen so it can be used to take selfies. And perhaps another one might be an optical zoom, but this might not be mandatory. I am lucky to be in a country where a lot of the models might be available, and even second hand, but I’d need some direction about what would be recommended.
Thanks!


Sony RX100 VII is only 101.6mm by 58.1mm and 42.8mm thick and weighs 302 grams
A more high end and slightly bigger alternative is the Sony RX1R III which is 113.3 by 67.9 and 87.5 thick and weighs 498 grams
