Can just capture in dslr and then sd transfer into phone.
Nowadays many mirrorless are capable of rendering usable jpeg in body.

phone........but shooting into the sun i prefer dslr......

IMHO.
I also use phone.
But quickest and in sun, DSLR ( or mirrorless with EVF ) wins - I can turn on the DSLR and by the time it reaches my eye level, i just compose and press shutter.

No right or wrong
Just like laptop. Different group of people has different requirements

The only thing true is that

almost all do not prefer heavy weight and

many people do not like something too bulky.

there are exceptions to the above. Some are even die hard for dslr due to the ovf and most importantly it is cheap now. But that is a group that can’t reverse the trend and dropping market

And the answer is ….?

IMHO.
Eh... DSLR or Mirrorless with EVF. Mobile phone good for indoors and big group photos like makan time.

For me, the only con of using dslr or mirrorless is that i get too immersed in photography that I forget that I am on vacation with other people.

photography trains patience.

good composition, waiting for good light, waiting for the right subject to enter your frame.

sometimes i can stay 1 spot for hrs to get that shot

For this street photo I took in BKK. I actually waited for 30 mins.

That 3 guys is sitting there for a while minding their own biz, then waited and happened that this 4th guy came into the picture lol then I finally get my shot.

my reference was not to look down on avid photographers or anything .. never did
but on those taking pics on hols w/o a cam but will make do w/ just a phone

maybe just for their keepsakes & need not be in high degree of photography

most into photography will have their own IG for showcasing their works lah.

in fact i did freelance wedding/pre wedding photography last time too

 

[yusoffb01]

used to lug dslr, mirrorless, point and shoot.

i take more pictures with phone, as long as have ultrawide and 5x periscope zoom lens, no need for camera

The reason why I still use my Sony RX100V together with my iphone when overseas is because:

1) my iphone is being used to surf web, gps path finding, read messages, make calls and so the battery is life is precious. My Sony is dedicated to take photos can just slot in a full charged spare battery

2) my iphone is the basic capacity, my Sony can just slot in another SD card once memory full

3) Sony takes better night photos due to a larger 1 inch sensor (less noise better details) and it's flash is superior to my iphone's

4) Rx100V is very compact and still fun to use


If I am not travelling I just use my iphone as battery life and storage not an issue.
