I should really use my digital camera. It's not even that old. But it is free of all the AI bs that is invading phone cameras. All that doesn't sit right with me. An example is the magic eraser stuff. Outdoor photos where you can erase all bystanders? idk something about a world where that's the norm skeeves me out.

I much prefer taking photos with my digital camera. The only thing where phone cameras have the edge is with the automatic GPS tagging. My inner nerd really likes to know the exact location where my photos were taken. The more so, the older they are.

Unfortunately, very few digital cameras have GPS tagging built itn. They nearly all require pairing with your smartphone to 'attach' GPS data via Bluetooth when you take a shot. But most of the time, I forget to activate this before going out with the camera.

This is one of the things that attracted me to the YN455 which has the exact same (Sony-manufactured) 20MP FT sensor as my Olympus PEN-F: https://www.hkyongnuo.com/productinfo/660161.html
