Canon still exists? People still use dedicated cameras? I found Canon hardware to be overrated, scanners to cameras to printers. All shit in one way or another. And their software, my god, the cruft.
Op here pretending phones have the best picture quality.
I don't need pictures of neutrinos or every individual quark of my cat. We passed the "good enough" stage a long time ago. Point, shoot, digitally hoard pictures for no reason, the end.
I get that, but the post doesn't try to make an argument on using a camera over the phone camera. There are plenty of cases where the picture quality just doesn't do. Personally I own s few cameras I use for special locations, parties, holidays, travel, to have the best pictures possible to have long lasting memories.
Even when I carry my gear around, my wife and In-laws take pics with there phones, and that's ok too.
Good thing that’s not the only thing cameras are used for. Good enough for Jimmy on vacation isn’t good enough for large scale prints, marketing, etc
Yes dedicated cameras are still around. They aren't going away anytime soon. I really like my Fuji camera.
Canon makes great optics and decent hardware but is pretty bad at everything else.
Having never been a photo nerd or enthusiast, I am in the "good enough" camp. I've given up a long time ago on the "metrics bullying" and gatekeeping, electronics have reached such a level of performance and low price, everything is the same to me. If you see neutrinos, great!
Do you ever actually take pictures of anything remotely interesting or worthwhile, or is it just an object you can talk about endlessly and upgrade continuously?
It's like audio, at some point is it about listening to music or buying new speakers?
Have I mentioned I'm old?
I do use it, probably one shoot or so a month. out of every 100 pictures I probably have one great one and 10 others that would be good with editing but I never go back and edit them. A phone is probably better for most people most of the time but there are definitely cases where it wont do the job.
I initially bought it when I worked over night shifts and wanted a night time hobby on the weekends, so I wanted to do deep space photography. I finally got on days soon after and am not up as late anymore so mostly take it on hikes, or birding and rarely around the city.
I rarely talk about it unless I show a picture that people ask "how'd you take that?" and I have to explain. I've bought a few lenses in 5 years but think I'm set on those. Maybe in another 5 years I'll upgrade the body. For me it's been a worthwhile investment.
Photos like these aren’t going to be possible on a phone camera. There’s still a lot of physical limitations to phones, namely low light and high aperture glass. Due to space constraints you’re extremely limited with sensor and glass size, which is where professional cameras still blow phones out of the water.
If all you’re doing is taking selfies and pictures of things you see around you then a phone is fine, but once you’re beyond that, it’s much more efficient to go to a dedicated camera.
Who's the one bullying and gatekeeping here?
I'm not a camera nerd either, but I recognize that there's people that need professional hardware either for a professional use or an obsessive hobby (either photog or other electronics or optics work). If a cell phone is "good enough" for me, that doesn't mean it's good for a specialist. Just like pretty much everything else in life.
Fuji is great. I love my X-S20
