Being a tourist in my own city + camera exploring



I've been doing my bit of planning recently for my next trip (Croatia for two weeks, with a few city trips on my way home). I'm making lists and maps of things to see and places to go, and have already started thinking about my pack list. One thing I've stumbled over is what camera to bring. During my travels in Australia and New Zealand I took a lot of photos using my Canon 40D. It was a pain to drag around 2 kilos of equipment in my daypack everywhere I went (and that's just having one lens), but I didn't want to miss out on getting that shot, and I’m glad I did bring it. Recently however, I bought a Sony NEX 5R, a mirrorless camera to replace my broken compact camera, and the results blew me away. It's a serious competitor for my Canon, so I started wondering if I should just leave my Canon at home next time around. To test my Sony further, and to try and break this dilemma, I made another list of touristy highlights… in my home city.
