No.

No no no.

A smartphone camera is never a viable replacement for a proper camera. If it's the only thing you have to hand after chancing upon something to have a look around in, fair game. Otherwise, there is no competition.

I bought my current Canon 550D almost four years ago (and it had already been around a year or so back then) and it hasn't put a foot wrong, it's worked almost flawlessly the entire time, even after it faceplanted a flagstone floor from the top of my tripod. I know the age old debate will rumble on between Canon and Nikon users but from my personal experience, I have had numerous friends using Nikons that have all had theirs break down or malfunction in some usually quite terminal way, whilst my Canon has kept on working through it all.

I have an older canon 450D that also took a faceplant in Pyestock, camera and lense done good, filter did not. I like to use a canon film every now and then, get 35mm piss cheap on auction Sites and charity shops, often get a lense or two with them. I have a G9 but I just cant get on with it.

Good call! :D Ahhh 35mms...haven't had mine out in a while. I like the 1970s-early 1980s ones! Got 3 of them, I should really get them out for a run some time. Get film online cheap and processed via mail order. I don't bother with anything other than ISO400 film for Urbex. Big ups to Olympus and Praktica, love 'em! :D
