I usually bring my Nikon with me when I know I will be close enough to take decent pics without needing the extra capabilities of my Sony (the picture I posted of Al Bouchard playing drums, wearing the Godzilla mask, was taken with it.)

You can spend a lot more for a pocket-sized camera, depending on what you want for features, but even the ones like my $90 Nikon will probably be all you will want, most of the time, when you don't need your D3200.
Shit, didn't see this.

Cheers mate. Yeah, I see where you're coming from and other people have said the same, but atm I'm fine with the size/weight. D3200 is smaller than other DSLRs as well, so it's not too bad. Will probs just buy a bag and wear that tbh.
