Point and Shoot, bridge or DSLR
Discussion
I want to buy a camera that will be used 99% of the time to take photos of my nephew and my child when he/she comes along.
I already have a Sigma 18-50mm f2.8 and a 70-200mmf2.8 left over from my photography business days (so I know how to use a camera) but I have been out of the scene for so long I am wondering what is best to do as bridge cameras seem like a good option now and point and shoot are convenient as you can always have one on you but do I need this seeing as my phone takes good snaps in these circumstances.
Do I sell the lenses and buy a point and shoot / bridge and pocket the change or buy the low end Canon DSLR body such as the 1100d for £175 and use the good lenses I already have.
Not going to be doing anything fancy like low light, high speed or off camera lighting or even shooting RAW.
What would you do?
