Not bad tbh. Mobile phone cameras have come a long way, but I remain highly sceptical that they will completely replace standalone cameras, as Sony has claimed.

I mean they have sort of replaced basic point and shoot cameras. I used to always have one of those but now there's not much point if you have a decent phone camera.

Yeah you’re right they’ve definitely wrecked the compact camera market, largely because it’s hugely more convenient to carry only one object I suppose. Still, Sony has made some pretty wild claims about smartphone cameras replacing ‘dslr’s’ (whatever that means in 2023) which I think are unlikely to pan out

That's just their marketing team at work, I find that hard to believe tbh.
