A newer generation phone is great for 90% of shots viewed on a computer though.

The marketing for new stuff is a strong motivator for parting with your cash.
If your present stuff is not blocking your creativity & artistic endeavours
and not dependent on your livelihood why change.

Ill let future events determine when I will change systems, either being Unfixable or due to theft.
I keep stalling the format change as when I consider what I would get for my dslr kit
investment vs get the same native mount lenses in Mirror less the price tag would be staggering

More importantly I still get wowed looking at the output im getting with my old stuff.

I make it a point to get out shooting at least once a week. Got to keep those hunting skill fresh.

Cameras now days transfer picts to Phones, When I show my pictures from the phone to people
I always like to add “look what my phone took today”. Just to play with them…


(early overcast morning 500mm 1/4000 F6.3 pre-focused on the sound bouncing from the tunnel at Mt Tremblant 2017)


I sometimes pull out the phone for to get pictures my other cameras im carrying are not set up for lens wise,
that always impresses the onlookers..
