If it makes any difference I use a mac system. I had an Epson Artisan printer for years. In fact, I wore it out.
When I went to Best Buy to replace it I ended up with a Canon Pixma. I have not been at all happy with it.
The colors aren't as good and replacing an ink cartridge after it ran out caused a lot of manipulating to get the colors anywhere near accurate. I want to go back to an Epson but can't decide which one. It is over an hour drive just to get to Best Buy (the nearest store to me that sells computer equipment) so I think I'm going to buy online but I'm not comfortable shopping sight unseen. The largest prints I make are 8x10. Any suggestions as to which model might best meet my needs would be much appreciated

Sales of 'traditional' cameras of all kinds have sunk to amazingly low levels as phone cameras have rapidly taken over the market. Starting with the Huawei P30 Pro's Leica camera, phone cameras now can be adjusted manually for aperature, speed, ISO, EV, and include automatic settings as well. The Huawei P30 includes a 5X telephoto to wide angle capability. The newest cameras from Apple, Samsung and (I suppose) Google's Pixel all include these capabilities, are waterproof to some degree, and generally provide all the functions of a 35 mm digital.

My camera group is going to have a discussion of the topic but I would like to hear from you about when you might favor a phone camera over a traditional digital camera, assuming you carry both. What can a phone camera NOT do?

I have a Benro mach 3 tripod, And have used it maybe 50 times. And in that number of uses 2 of the legs have, when deployed slipped out of their collars and had to be reattached more then once. Could anyone suggest a better more stable tripod it, seemed rather heavy and structurally sound when purchased. But has failed miserably in my opinion in its short life
Thank you for your responses. I use it with a D 500 and sometimes A150 to 600 Tamron lens, But usually nothing more than the 18 to 300 Nikon lens
