Nowadays, cell phones have as much technology as our Digital Single Lens Reflex (DSLR) cameras and it begs the question, "Which is better (or more necessary as a photographer's accessory), the highly portable and convenient-because-its-always-in-my-hand smart phone with a camera, or the much higher quality (although its a little heavier) and more-fun-to-use-because-of-the-more-convenient-and-professional-features DSLR camera?"
Most professional photographers still lug around the slightly heavier but better quality DSLR because they feel like they are not seen as a professional photographer unless they have a large intimidating lens, some still carry their cameras because they prefer to use the camera for what its made to do and use the phone for what its made to do (make calls), and some photographers enjoy the convenience of not having to carry around a heavy camera and bag and accessories but instead, carry around their smart phone and shoot happily with that because its convenient and they can carry it in their back pocket.
Where do you stand on this issue?
