I am a serious photographer who mainly use my iPhone during my leisure time! Haha.... half kidding la.

When I go travel for leisure not work, I want to bring/use as minimal equipment as I can, so I won't bring any heavy stuff but only my GirlFriend2 (GF2) and two pancakes (no zoom, thanks!), before I used G9 and T700.

I would say, GF2 is pretty much 5D quality, just the sensor is smaller. As long as you're not blowing up to large size enlargements, GF2 can even beat some lower end DSLRs. (just my pov). And it's surely better than G series and many other prosumers. So of course, price is higher. And also of course, you have to carry more than only a prosumer by itself. But compare to a set of DSLR, micro 4/3 is still way lighter and occupies less space. It's up to your choice.

Apple also said the new iphone 4s is DSLR quality.

They said that because they want to grab your money. I said that but I got nothing. You judge.

或者咁講丫，如果係去旅行，帶一部你最熟悉最得手應心既相機仔去，幾舊幾多pixal都唔係問題，隨心順手影到 ...

Oh I totally agree!
Taking pics on a trip is just part of the whole vacation. If you spend too much time only focusing on your camera/pics taking, you might lose many other enjoyments like eating, shopping, sight-seeing. Except for a particular photo trip, picture taking is the main goal.

FiChai

I agree too.

There is no point thinking over what cameras to use if your main goal is not taking  ...

Yet I didn't mean to agree on extreme case though. So, if eating is not your main goal for a trip, you can eat garbage?
Many things can go midway.

FiChai

cell phone cameras = garbage?

then why are so many people eating garbage everyday?

I know, my joke was bad. :b
But to answer the original question: "what DC would serious photographers use in their leisure time?", I personally think "cell phone" might not be a serious answer.
