All,
My local High School Marching Band (both my kids are in) has received an invitation to go to London and march in the Queen's New Years Day parade in Westminster on January 1st, 2010. The two cameras that I have are a Canon Rebel (non-digital) 35mm camera with a 35-80mm zoom lens and a 75-300mm zoom lens and a Nikon CoolPix 7900 (point and shoot) with a built in 1.8 to 23.4mm lens. Advantages of the Rebel are a wider range of photo use while the disavantages are the clumsyness of the larger (heavier) camera and having to feed film and not digital, so there is no preview of photos taken. My wife and I have debated for years about going to a digital Rebel but haven't done it yet. Thoughts? Recommendations? I especially would like some input from what would be my best option in photography of landscapes, city scapes, and the like for shooting scenes around Westminster.
