Hey guys, I've mentioned this more than once, but I'm studying abroad in Maastricht this fall... I really want to take some great photos and basically document my trip in detail. My biggest issue, however, is what to bring with me. I have three choices: camcorder, a dslr, or canon sd1000...
My thoughts:
Camcorder: This would be sweet beyond sweet...I think. The thought does come to mind that perhaps I won't be able to use it as often as I think? Also, I'd have to go out and buy one expressly for this purpose (though I'd most certainly get good use out of it after purchasing it)
DSLR: Amazing picture quality. Big size. Expensive. Will I look like an ultra douche tourist walking around with one of these? Does it matter? Would I have any hope of selling the pictures that I take (In other words, given good photos, would I be able to find a buyer)?
SD1000: Small, portable, easy...But the picture quality would be lacking compared to the DSLR.
