I am playing around with different travel cameras. For something like Venice, I did take my 5DIII set up. For smaller trips, I have wanted something smaller. I have the M3 with a number of different lenses. This is smaller, but still takes up a reasonable about of room. More and more, I am taking the Canon G7X II with me on trips. It actually puts out pretty solid images. ISO performance is pretty solid and it fits right in my computer bag.
