Yeah, that and actually taking decent pictures.

Cheap phone + nice camera is another option. But with the downside of more to pack and carry around.

My primary concern isn't so much what i'm saying now, but what they think about it later if we keep heading toward darker times.

... yeah that feels entirely possible. Valid concern.

In the early 00's there were a few nice cameras with a 3x zoom that would fit in an altoids tin.

I think most of the current crop of micro cameras are toys :(
