Anyone use their cell phone the majority of the time now even though you have a nice camera?

I only use my phone when its the only thing I got at the time or when I just need to take a snapshot of something.

Approximately 15,000 to 30 ratio dslr/camera phone per year.

I went down to the beach this morning to shoot the sunrise with my Canon 6D. At one point, I used my iPhone to take a photo of my camera, on the tripod, with the ocean and sun behind it. I uploaded it to Facebook.

Someone commented "Indy, you always produce such great work; always love your photos".

I just thanked them, and didn't say another word...

I use my cell phone alot.
I use it to take reminder notes, or if I see something that I might want to buy I take a snapshot. Or quick pictures of the kids playing.

But every so often when I see a nice sunrise pictures I pull out the cell phone and go .. ooh rats .. as I know the colors and contrast of the sky will be like poo. I need to carry my dslr more but afraid it will freeze in the car right now.

Sure, I use my cell phone a lot. More? Less? I dunno, who's counting? Certainly more than the 4x5.

Rarely to never since I bought a WiFi SD card.

I use it about 20% of the time, more or less. Depends where I am/what I'm photographing.

I took that on a whim a while back when I didn't have my dslr.

You can get some neat apps for your phone too. Took this one with a long exposure app

I try to use my camera as much as I can but If I'm out and about and don't have it I will occasionally resort to using my phone.

Do not listen to them. iPhone photos (Blackberry not so much) are as valid a form of photography as any.
I would rather see a simple photo of daily life, or a vacation than a hundred boring "well composed" photos of a sunset.
Snapshot is just a disparaging term used by those who lack creativity to create something really interesting and instead resort to really clear photographs of fuzzy concepts.
