M4/3... pointless to bring such bulk around anymore, technology has advanced to the point where even compromises are slim and difficult to discern in the eyes of the untrained.

I bought a Canon EOS years ago, thinking of taking beautiful photos of the scenery and my family during vacations, in the end only brought it out for one day, because it was so bulky and leychey that it reduced my holiday enjoyment…

there is a bug in this douyin fairytale ....... how that guy immediately produce photo out of camera without going through filter and manual editing

couple months back at Sentosa I sat behind ATB .... she took 12 minutes to edit her own iphone photo ...... i didn't know take so long
Those douyin street photographer usually use an app called 像素蛋糕, just pay and the photo edits are instant and sibei solid. Lol

I use a combination of both. Food shots or impromptu shots, mobile. For serious landscape shots, mirrorless

not really. i zoomed in to the equivalent of a 20x zoom on handphone for some fuji closeups, and shot some people on zip lines in action. depends on what u are taking. landscape mostly, handphone is enough......
What are zip lines in action

Photos i take with my mirrorless tends to be more memorable and have more "pop" than my phone camera in certain lighting conditions like the golden hour.

But yeah, in bright daylight conditions, can't tell the difference between phone cam & mirrorless.

The lower pic is iphone 17 Pro Max because of backend smartphone computational processing, while the RX100V is really waiting for user to do post processing.

In good lightings and relatively static scenes and viewed on tiny fraction of a smartphone screen, I dun think it is easy to tell apart. You cannot tell apart 8k reasolution vs 2k resolution on a comparatively tiny smartphone screen.

But under poor lightings / need for tracking / high shutter speeds the difference is more glaring

In this example I purposely chose a dark scene with fast moving subject to stress the phone.

Full Frame mirrorless, this photo was actually taken after the smartphone shot.
