  1. Like guns, the best camera is the one you have on you at the time. I've used an RX100 (II), as an adjunct to a phone, primarily for (sensor) low light / depth of field / (lens) zoom capabilities, while still being pocketable, with NFC/WiFi to transfer photos to on the go. Sometimes convergence is overrated. Another alternative (especially for the video crowd) would be to get a gimbal. Although looking at other people with them, it only feels one step removed from a selfie stick. Of course, if you are serious about "Point and Shoot, Camera" https://petapixel.com/2016/10/07/watch-army-photographer-switch-camera-rifle-combat/

  3. Why does this remind me of the Engineer 's bike joke? Two engineering students, Bob and Ed, are riding their bikes. Bob says to Ed, "That's a nice bike; is it new?" Ed replies, "Well, that's an interesting story. I was walking on campus the other day, and a beautiful woman rides up to me, gets off her bike and puts it on down, takes off all of her clothes and throws them down, and says 'Take what you want.'" Bob says to Ed, "Good choice; the clothes wouldn't have fit you anyway."
