You are correct. That is all you need as long as you are satisfied with the results....and there is no reason the results should not be anything but wonderful.

All I can say is that according to the experts here, all you need is a cell phone to get high level professional quality images, because it's what you see and how you see it that's important, not whether you have an expensive camera or not. Your gear is probably overkill, so I would sell it all and get an IPhone. You probably already have one.

Or...

Others will say that you don't need any camera to get great pictures, you can just type your vision into a computer to get better images than come from any camera. AI is the future, so get in now. Be an early adopter. Get ahead of the curve.

Or do what I do, which is whatever I want to, because arguing over gear and whether this or that is better is an exercise in futility. You'll never hear anything new or different...

Could not have said it better myself.

Im still using the EF lenses so really no weight saving. But just being rid of the SLR system is rewarding enough, especialy considering that it’s so low $ to update just the camera system. Waaaaaaay less $ than updating a phone !!!

I’m not sure how much a smart phone costs these days.

The last time we got phones, there were differences between what was said online and what was said in the store.

So?
Some random answer on a message board is even more relevant?
Really?

BTW - I thought you had some stories, any story, where you're not the victim? Still doesn't seem like it.

I’m not a victim.
What we were told at the store was more complicated than ‘a price’.
I did purchase an iPhone.

But, you don't know how to use google today to find the current (potential) price on a new phone?

I agree, the big camera companies have switched over merely to stay in business.


Ummm…isn’t that what businesses do? It’s not some nefarious scheme.

Well, he is a Pentax shooter so victim it is. Although he’s chosen his own victim hood.

Not Pentax.
They are staying in their ‘SLR’ niche
and are talking about producing Film cameras again.

I don’t see how what we are told in an actual T-mobile store translates to “some random answer on a message board”.
