I think that her phone would take great photos, as the guy at the Canon shop showed me some beautiful photos that were taken with phones. Maybe the days of cameras are numbered and that would be sad, as I have so much fun with mine. You are right about not needing a backpack as a phone can fit into a pocket, but I think that like me, you would rather continue with your camera. We were just made that way 🤣 !LOLZ
Yes, it would definitely cost a bomb for a separate 2000 zoom lens, but the Nikon that he showed me is the same as my single fixed lens camera. It works the same as the zoom is extended on a tracking carriage.
Thanks and cheers.
As long as the sensor size is as small as it is in the phones, there will always be big cameras too, I believe. The phone photos look good on the phone or even on big computer monitors, but when you want to print them in large formats, it will not work.
So, of course I will keep my camera, because if I had more space in my backpack, I would only fill it with other stuff like food or water. That might even be heavier than the camera 😂 !LOLZ
... and it's just a better feeling to take photos with a camera, as you know yourself.
So you might switch from Canon to Nikon one day? I have never used a Nikon, but I have heard they should take good pictures too ... not as good as Canon though 😉

Yes, I think that you are right, as it might be the pixels that matter. The problem is that I can only hope that my camera will last. If you had to stack your backpack with food, you would grow round like a ball and you will roll off the mountains when you go hiking 🤣🤣🤣 !LOLZ
Yes, I do know as a camera sits lovely in the hand and a phone would be like waving a little note book around 😉
Nope, no Nikon for me as even a used one is too expensive. I like you are a Canon man and I will treat my Canon like a baby. Pity that they don't seem to last for longer than 8 years, as my camera works overtime most days 🙏
Cheers and thanks.
Haha, I remember we have been talking about eating too much and rolling down the mountains before 🤣 !LOLZ
Yep, I prefer to hold the camera because many times there's a bit of my fingers to see in the images ... I'm not used of taking photos with the phone 😉
I can't imagine switching to another brand and will certainly also stay with Canon. My EOS R is now 4 years old and if nobody gifts me money for a newer model I hope it will last longer than 8 years. Hopefully yours will also work much longer 🤞

You seem to have a tendency to bring the subject up again and let's hope that it will not become real Hannes 😮 !LOLZ
Hahaha, phone photography is also not very conducive for me, as the damn thing feels like a toy. A heavy camera sits well in the hand for free hand shooting and with a phone, even your short fingers get in the way 🤣
Hopefully Hive will moon, as then you can buy one of the most expensive Canon cameras. I don't think that mine will last for 8 years, as it is already showing some niggles. Every 3rd photo that I take is blurred 😥
Cheers and thanks.
Haha, I don't think so, because I don't want to use gondolas to get up to the mountains 😅 !LOLZ
I like the phone for quick snap shots or short videos of a situation, but for real photos I don't use the phone ... maybe when I'm old and get lost I can send a photo to the rescue team to show them where I am 🤣
Actually, I don't need the most expensive cameras, because I love the one I have. There's only one thing I wished my camera would be able to do: focus stacking in camera when I make complicated macro or landscape shots. Of course, I can do it by hand, but telling the camera to make 100 shots would be so much easier 😉
Hm, the autofocus in your camera seems not to work properly sometimes. Maybe it's just a weak battery or the lens is dirty or fogged up, but I have no idea to be honest.

Just a bit of tease 😛 !LOLZ
Get lost? You? Never, as I have never heard that a mountain goat can get lost. I think the only reason to get lost might be if there is a young good looking female mountain goat around. And in that case you wouldn't want to have a phone with you 🤣🤣🤣
My camera can stack if I hold the click down, but it's difficult to do with flying birds, as at the same time I have to swing the camera and control the zoom. But it does it perfectly with static items.
Such as photos like this.
They were too high up for my camera's video and I would need 3 right hands to try and stack photos of their flight. A crow was attacking a buzzard.
I remember that with my previous camera, the now retired SX60HS, the colors of the photos also blurred and then after a while the photos turned blank. I sent it in for repairs and they replaced the diodes or something like that at the cost of a car 😉
Cheers and thanks.
Hihi !LOLZ you have no idea how many times I got lost because I thought a path would lead to the right place 😂 but in the end I have always found the right way ... sometimes hours later though 😅
I understand - this is called something like continuous focusing or so, but by focus stacking I mean something different: the camera takes several images from one scene, each fucused on another area (e.g. foreground, midground, background). So, when you take a macro, you take 10 or many more images of the same thing or insect. These images are then combined by software to get one image that's sharp from front to back. Doing this by hand I always forget something, but when you can tell the camera to take 50 photos for a focus stack, it would be a lot easier. But in reality I don't really want to spend such a lot of money for just one function / for being just lazy 😉
One day I'll also try to take photos of birds in flight again - cool image 👍
Nowadays the things are not built to last. Many electronics work just as long as their warranty lasts.
