I switched to a compact in the dying days of 35mm and matched or exceeded the quality of my OM system using a Ricoh GR1s.
Nowadays, we have a handy compromise in 4/3 style systems, plenty of quality and features in a slim package, esp with smaller lenses.
My old canon A630 soldiers on, producing good enough 8MB pics, with all the modes and features and a moveable screen for selfies and odd angles.
Making a movie of touring that is in any way watchable or interesting is a hard task and gets in the way of actual touring. Once you have the "footage" you have to edit; a skill which is under-rated by many amateur movie makers.
