DSL mafan, need to change lenses and so bulky to lug around

I think nowadays majority of people are satisfied with just using an iPhone to take pictures..no need to carry the bulky camera around also

My wife the exact opposite! Knn spend 20+k on 2 stupid Leica. 1 is just a point and shoot, cannot change lens. And another with a 24-70 lens. Both are heavy as puck. She say high resolution, can see more details, I told her, she also not going to print banner or look for pimple, resolution so good also useless.

It's only for people who want to be identified as a photographer.

Any decent smartphone can take pictures and post in whatever social media. Not only iphone has a camera.

Buy gd stuff DSLR not cheap
If not always use buy gd camera phone settle liao.
I think the mobile camera specs is higher than DSLR

because it does computational image processing on the fly, which otherwise you have to spend hours post-holiday to edit your digicam photos

Camera nowadays you just shoot raw...then use Lightroom and do batch processing with the template you prefer...the results are 90% satisfactory...not like last time still need to spend lots of time to minor adjust the brightness...colour tone and sharpness...this is the biggest difference I experience after I changed my camera from 5DIII to R6II...

I never did.
Ended up carrying a pocket-able canon compact cam with decent zoom and articulated screen. Good enough most of the time and ever-ready to snap a pic or video. The DSL and various lenses kept in dehumidifer cabinet

invest in a better quality camera phone can liao.

 

[singaporean11]

yes, MIJ...

newer models no longer MIJ

though I thinking to upgrade to X-E5, waiting for 12.12 or better deals

I am currently using a Fujifilm X100VI, small and light with built-in flash, good enough for me.

i still prefer interchangeable lens lol but maybe when i am much older cannot carry too much gears i will go for fixed lens.

 

[davidtkl76]

I am using a 7 year old mirrrorless camera. But the tech advancement is so fast that I feel there is no or little discernible difference between photos taken from that or the phone.

This is a fallacy and marketing gimmick by mobile phone manufacturers who want you to believe so!

Most DSLR cameras use APSC sensors or full-frame sensors, and they are at least 16x bigger in size compared to a mobile phone camera, and obviously the big sensors make a lot of difference in the image quality (and pixels' resolutions do not dictate image quality)!
