Camera hobby

• I feel like buying a single-lens reflex camera about once a year.

  • But in the end, I always conclude that the camera on my smartphone is good enough.
  • (I bought a single-lens reflex camera before, but I didn’t use it much and ended up selling it).

• I enjoy taking photos with my smartphone as a normal hobby.

  • I try to find interesting compositions and ways to capture moments in my daily life.
    • Do you use Instagram? (tkgshn)
  • #myself

• After trying Leica owned by (tkgshn), I feel the desire to have a camera again.

  • As something that leverages life experiences.
  • It seems very enjoyable to have a different perspective on the world.
    • Especially if I live in a new city.
  • Well, I don’t have the financial flexibility to just spend 100,000 yen on it without thinking.
    • But if I get bored, I can just sell it, so it’s practically free.

• I want to take photos like this.

  • It’s the type of photography that focuses on creating an image.
  • Looking at this again, I don’t really have the motivation to go out and take photos like this with a camera right now (blu3mo).
    • It seems more enjoyable to have a camera as a part of my everyday life.

• It’s fun to take a walk with a camera when I’m stressed. I can concentrate on finding the images I want to capture, so it lightens my mind (fuka).

  • The purpose of a smartphone is to capture moments in our daily lives, but with a single-lens reflex camera, it’s more about seeking beauty on our own.
  • If I were to compare it to the mist of the world, using a smartphone is like accidentally taking a new route for a task, while using a single-lens reflex camera is like deliberately taking a detour (I know it’s hard to understand).
    • I totally understand, that makes sense (blu3mo).
