        Maybe not on your sd card, I don’t think that’s universal anymore though. There’s a whole lotta doom out there and in your focal lenght if you know where to look.

      Because this is one device that fits easily in a pocket or purse. Most people want to have a nice camera on hand without having to lug around another big device.

        I mean I guess… It still looks pretty large, and if I’m going to spend that much for a nice camera, I don’t know if I’d just be throwing it in a pocket or purse with the massive lens unprotected

          Compared to a real camera plus a cell phone? Not even close. And the lenses are behind scratch resistant glass.

      As someone who bought a nice (19mp) camera because the iPhone and android they already have(48,50mp) have shit cameras…

      I’m sending this from a trip where I only remembered one device.

      Boy it’d be nice to always have a not shit camera.

      Because the best camera is the one you have on you

      Not an iphone fan but it’s all that work will buy me. Just got a 17 pro max and I’m amazed with the camera. I think finally I no longer need to bring my full frame when hiking anymore. It’s simply not worth the 2kg when my phone can pretty much do the same thing (except telephoto)

      I’m with you on this one (and that is exactly what I did lol).

      I want to divorce everything I can from my phone (might get a DAP too), I can’t run GrapheneOS on that and phone security is more important to me than phone camera, my camera can be connected to Wifi and bluetooth but more importantly can not be if I want (while by nature the phone needs at least CDMA to “phone,” and it’s more realistic to never enable wireless on a Fujifilm than on a phone). Also fwiw there’s something that just feels different about shooting on a mirrorless/DSLR than a phone, I don’t think I can physically describe it though.

      I will say this camera is probably fantastic and seems to have interchangeable lenses, but for my use case I’d still have to have my phone-phone and then my camera-phone so it’d still be two devices. I could see why it would be a preferred choice for some people though. Also if I’m carrying the phone+lenses, I’d still have to have a camera bag, and my camera fits in my camera bag already. Sure I’d be able to fit more in there too but idk it’s not like I could be sans bags.
