Is it necessary to take a SLR when traveling?

I don't think it is necessary to take a SLR when traveling. Because some photos were taken with mobile phones.

Now the camera function of mobile phone is very powerful. Generally speaking, the height of the camera is12 million pixels, and the image is clear and there is nothing unfriendly. Compared with the pixel ratio of SLR, the pixel ratio of mobile phone camera is not too bad, because the pixel ratio of SLR is about 20 million now. And now the mobile phone photosensitive element CMOS, not much better than a single contrast. In addition, the improvement of mobile phone imaging algorithms is also very great, especially some beauty algorithms, which make mobile phone photos more comfortable and secure, unlike SLR algorithms, which make some real details reflected. Although SLR shooting is real, it is not so beautiful, while mobile phone shooting is slightly different, which makes people feel more beautiful.

Then compare the volume difference between SLR and mobile phone. As we all know, SLR is as heavy as the old camera, but now the mobile phone is getting lighter and thinner. The mobile phone is relatively light, but the SLR is not easy to carry, so for physical strength, if people go to the scenic spot and walk with a heavy SLR around their necks for a day, it is better than putting the mobile phone in their pockets easily. I believe everyone is willing to hold a mobile phone instead of a SLR.

Most importantly, some pictures of SLR can't be shared with friends in time when shooting, but you can share them with your family, friends and circle of friends immediately after shooting your mobile phone. In addition, after taking photos with your mobile phone, you can use various apps on your mobile phone to change your beauty. After taking a photo, the SLR needs to be connected to a computer and repaired with ps and various retouching software. The current retouching software is not as good as those apps.

Of course, if you really need some realistic photos and think SLR is better than these phones, of course, choose SLR. After all, what's the point of buying a SLR and not leaving it at home?
