Sitina1 Open-Source Camera

I agree. Maybe the breakdown is between:

1) taking a picture

2) doing something with the picture

People coming to photography from smartphones want the priorities reversed.

But the deeper you get into it, the more you want #1 and the more control you want over #1. The worst is #2 getting in the way of the shot.

And actually, lots of people into photography think it is about the camera, but it is really about the lenses.

You buy lenses, then buy/upgrade bodies around them.

I want my camera to just take a photo at whatever the sensor can do, and give me that file.

Too many photo-taking devices are now like "lemme just AI that for you, and give it to you at a quarter of the resolution of the sensor." I don't think Samsung phones even let third-party apps access the full sensor any longer, all are crippled, IIRC.
