When I see software enhanced photography like this, and look at the relatively primitive processing that is happening on my DSLR and my high priced mirrorless cameras, I realize that despite their huge sensors and amazing glass (which I paid a small fortune for), they will soon be outclassed by the simple smartphone in my pocket.
My wife routinely shoots photos on her Pixel 3 that get a better response on our family whatsapp group than the painstakingly post-processed DSLR shots I create and post.
This could be an indictment of my failures as a photographer. Or perhaps my family has no taste in photos. But it's also entirely possible that a Pixel 3 is all the camera you really need for family documentary work ... and I've wasted so much money on unnecessary hobby gear.
- zokier 6y agoWell, is it a hobby, or is it family documentary? Feels like similar sentiment if you said that money spent on woodworking gear is wasted because family prefers IKEA furniture.
- TheMagicHorsey 6y agoThis is a good point to tell my wife. She wants me to sell my camera gear.
