Why do you have to bring a SLR when traveling? Is it really impossible to take pictures with your mobile phone?

Different people have different attitudes towards photography. Take Brother Mustang as an example. If you only use your mobile phone to take photos during the trip, you will definitely feel a little less interesting and the meaning of the trip will be weakened a lot.

But some people may think that it is impossible to carry a heavy and big SLR. Such a trip may be a lot tiring, and I may not look at it again in the future. Why bother?

Therefore, whether the mobile phone is enough or SLR or micro-single, it is really different for different people to have different choices.

First, suitable for friends who travel with mobile phones 1, pay attention to the experience of travel itself.

Travel itself is a good human experience. Many people will travel as lightly as possible, and at the same time pay more attention to communication with local people, taste delicious food and watch it attentively. What I care about is taking photos as a souvenir at will, focusing only on content and not on form. Then, a mobile phone that you must carry with you, will not increase the extra burden, and can shoot anytime and anywhere will meet the requirements.

2. Are you satisfied with the picture quality of your mobile phone?

With the development of technology and the improvement of mobile phone image quality, mobile phone photography has become a favorite of many people. In addition, the mobile phone photos have been specially beautified, and they have a good impression on the mobile phone. As long as the details are not enlarged, the picture quality is actually passable.

Especially in some scenes, the effect of mobile phone is more intuitive than that of camera, so many people think that mobile phone is enough.

3, like real-time sharing

Only when the mobile phone can access the Internet can the mobile phone be online in real time, and the photos taken with the mobile phone can be easily shared. And the video function of the mobile phone is also very strong. At the same time, by downloading the APP, you can directly make interesting video clips or photo albums, or even broadcast live.

To sum up, if you don't have high requirements for image quality, pursue simple recording function and value real-time sharing, then mobile phone will be a good choice for you. Now Huawei, Xiaomi and other mobile phones take the function of taking photos or videos as their main function points. It is foreseeable that the picture quality of mobile phones will get better and better in the future.

Second, friends who are suitable for traveling with cameras 1 are people who really like photography.

Many people say that mobile phones are used to take pictures and cameras are used to take pictures. Although it is not all right, Brother Ma also thinks that the main points have been roughly stated. A person who really likes photography will lose something if you don't let him travel with his camera. He won't think the camera is heavy, the lens is heavy and the tripod is heavy. He just feels that there are not enough lenses and cameras.

If he can't record the beautiful scenery in front of him with a camera, he will feel sorry!

Step 2 travel at a slow pace

If there is a photographer in the tour group, then everyone will certainly understand. He wants to find a place with few people to take pictures. He wants to stay before sunset. He doesn't want to shoot the scenery that everyone likes. He may not know where he is going alone and let the whole group wait for him.

But the advantage is that if you are with him, he will take good pictures of you. Of course, this kind of travel, maybe he doesn't like to be with you, he likes to travel alone, and the advantage is that he can spend his time freely.

They prefer to go out early and return late to capture the most beautiful and unusual light, instead of formal scenic spots. They pack in small bags and don't move quickly, so they are more suitable for slow-paced travel.

3. More possibilities for shooting

First of all, the picture quality of most cameras is definitely better than that of mobile phones. At the same time, if it is a camera with interchangeable lenses such as a SLR or a micro-camera, different images can be recognized by using different lenses. For example, use telephoto to capture distant birds, use macro to record details that are easily overlooked, use ultra-wide angle to record magnificence, and use large aperture to highlight the subject.

At the same time, a landscape photographer will definitely bring a tripod, because his pursuit of image quality goes far beyond giving his body some weight.

So, if you meet the above characteristics, congratulations, you and Brother Mustang are the same kind of people!

Third, can the two be reconciled? Sure! More and more people like micro-orders. Micro-single can be regarded as a photographic weapon between mobile phone and SLR.

Micro-single can change the lens, the micro-single is small in size and light in weight, the use of micro-single is simple what you see is what you get, and micro-single-shot video is even better than SLR.

Therefore, people who like mobile phones and want better picture quality can bring a micro-menu, while those who like photography want to be light and can also choose a micro-menu, and the micro-menu is becoming more and more professional. Have you noticed that there are Sony's a7m3, A7R4 with the strongest pixel of 35mm camera, and Canon's new EOS R5 R6 brothers? They took the micro menu to an unprecedented height of photography.

Of course, Brother Mustang doesn't sell micro-orders to everyone. What is discussed above is only the choice of photography and photographic equipment, which really varies from person to person.

Everyone's pursuit of travel is different, and their views on photography are different, which will decide them to choose different recording equipment. There is no absolute right or wrong here, only different people!
