Those using DSLR, did u upgrade to mirrorless or still with DSLR or did you quit and use phone ?

I am contemplating if i should invest on more dslr lens or upgrade to mirrorless.

Bit confused if it is gonna be waste of money..

remember camera are just a tools.....what makes photo enticing is the creativity of person view and mind

Ya ya i know that LOL

I wanted to get the 300m range to do birding lol.

But mirrorless is lighter for travel. Just dono if any more benefit than that

Samseng S23 Ultra 100X, kawtim your weight problems, sesat in jungle seeing bebird can get back safely

Get the Canon R5

depend on what you want to do.....

all 3 different purpose

all 3 also I got

if u have dslr then get new lens.

mirrorless is good for lightweight carry but battery life is worse compared to dslr.

need being backup battery, compared to dslr you might not need to worry.

i've used both on separate travelling occasions and the photo quality between the two is negligible. biggest factor is your skills/talents and lens.

Depends. If the photos end up in social media like Facebook/Instagram just get a better phone.

using S23 Ultra, general photo i shoot using hand phone.
if i know going for trip, once in a life time i shoot with a7iii

people can say waste money, but few thousand ringgit i can shoot a photo that worth to print out. and 20 years later it still can show to my child or grandchild

i got extra, i will get A7rv/A7iv

invest a good performing lens if u want to reach 300mm, don't cheapskates

I only use phone nowadays. Dslr hobby mahal. Plus we need to subscribe to adobe lightroom, photoshop to make the photos looks good. (except for those that like to use *cough*cough version)

DSLR?? hahahaha
nikon kat BTS pon dan lama gulung tikar wei

dulu zaman SLR upgrade to DSLR..mana ppl go but the camera and act pro.
u go pasar seni or pudu alot youngman take the street photo with the dslr...
damn pro yo......

but now all these ppl now r unker liao
letting go the kit cheap cheap pon susah jual kluar.

interesting. but no space to bring jalan2...

phone je nowadays.

dulu bawa dslr + bag klau gaya + 100
now u bawa kluar...hahahahaha ppl laugh 9 at u

Hmm ok ok, ayam gonna drive, will reply in a while

at least tell us what purpose u wan ur gear to serve u, and what budget u have lah doh..

thinking of selling my m43

Camera is just tool, patato pun ok if you have talent

Are you got talent?

Well depends?
I sometimes pakai iPhone 14 Pro, I feel the camera doesn't perform as expected.

But if ada extra cash, do invest in a proper mirrorless.

my journey
canon dslr > canon mirrorless > fuji x100v.
i know i only use prime lens then end up using fuji x100v as my end tool. mind you i had my canon dslr 500d for around 7 years like that then moved on to canon m6. only last year changed to fuji x100v.
