Pixel 3 Review - Hackdot

I distinctly remember working with grad students in 2006 whose project was "collaborating with Nokia to make super high quality cameras in cell phones".

At the time, I laughed inside and thought, "ha, it's gonna be tough to beat a D2Hs and a decent set of lenses."

I was very wrong. Image sensors have come a long way incredibly fast.

I am considering selling my camera.

To be fair my 500$ lens on a $1000 consistently takes better looking portraits (I know it is subjective) than a phone .. but my phone already takes good pictures and is always with me.

It also automatically updloads my pictures to google photos, which is both creepy and incredibly useful.

It’s not even subjective. I would love to leave my dslr behind, but phones are just not there yet. My d7100 with a 50mm takes amazing portrait shots, even in my amateur hands. The d7100 isn’t even a newer body.
