I've looked a few times into what it would cost for a "decent" camera that beats my smartphone, across a range of compacts through to entry level mirror-less, or even looking into what it would cost me to get some more lenses for an old 500D I have lying around. I've come to the same conclusions each time, that I'm better off sticking with the smart phone camera in terms of value for money, there's simply not enough to pull me back to the dedicated camera world, despite part of me really wanting to go back.
