Is it really that difficult? I can connect to my entry level nikon d3400 over bluetooth and send an image to my smartphone, edit it a bit and upload it to insta

  The bar for broad market consumer products--which digital cameras once were--has a much higher bar than that. "Good enough" would be that you take a picture on your camera, and it's available as a thumbnail in your phone's gallery without any further action. Sharing it would trigger a full transfer. "Great" would be being able to edit and upload without taking your phone out of your pocket at all. It blows my mind that we still live in a world where product makers don't get the cloud. People no longer want to think of data as living within physical devices, managing copies and transfers. They want to skip to the "job to be done".

    I for one want my camera to be able to take pictures, and that's it. I don't want it to be a cloud aware 5g connected behemoth running a desktop tier operating system and lightroom.

      That's fine. But it's a shrinking market.
