I've been happy with most of my results to date. I wish the batteries were as long life as Nikons, but basically I can't complain at their performance.
But something is missing!
I am trying to decide if scaling down equipment to lightweight compact equipment actually influences the merit you place on your photographs.
Does holding DSLR make you feel more like a 'proper' photographer and this VERY feeling adds worth to the action and result?
There is no doubt holding my phone up to capture something is not only a last resort but almost a 'what the heck' feel to it. Doesn't matter if I miss the shot!
So I am trying to decide if these mirrorless cameras are REALLY the way forward or are they sitting midway between the 'what the heck' shots and the 'I used my DSLR to capture this' interns of quality and WORTH.
Right now I am glad I haven't sold my DSLRs (it's ok Robert, I don't want the D200IR back, lol) because I feel there may be something in this perception.
What do others think about the impact of using lesser cameras for convenience?
