What is a good, high quality, compact camera that I can take with me to a national park?

What is a good, high quality, compact camera that I can take with me to a national park? I have a canon rebel t6, but it’s a bit bulky. I want something more compact that still produces beautiful, detailed photos. I’m not a professional by any means, so something easy to use would also be helpful. Does anyone have any recommendations for me? I’m willing to spend up to $1500. submitted by /u/Lucky_Amphibiian

Why would a dedicated monochrome sensor camera be desirable?

( www.reddit.com )

Why would a dedicated monochrome sensor camera be desirable? I come across posts wishing for a monochrome version of certain cameras, such as the Ricoh GRIIIx (which I own). Obviously, most cameras have a b&w mode or a color image can be transformed in post. Given that, what would be the advantage of a dedicated monochrome sensor? Would the results really be better? submitted by /u/Flick3rFade
