Current Episode: Sept 26, 2024 Episode 28- Just Take the Pic! Camera or Smartphone for Photography?

It’s that time of year! Vacations and traveling during the summer break! So the question is, when you are traveling on family vacations or attending a work conference, which do you prefer to use, a typical point and shoot camera or your smartphone? As summer comes to a close, this podcast will still touch on some ideology about basic uses of photography from a typical point and shoot camera vs a smartphone.

Just in the last few years, digital photography with the use of smartphones has exploded with sophisticated sensors, intricate AI, powerful lenses, and the convenience of always having it with you.

This episode will cover the pros and cons of using a smartphone vs a dedicated camera such as a DSLR, GoPro, or a mirrorless camera. As well this podcast will talk about a few examples as the host dives into what he uses on his travels and creative journeys.
