Every holiday we take, I take my DSLR and use it sparingly. It goes nearly everywhere with us, but comes out as a compliment to our phones.
My DSLR is over a decade old, a Canon 700D that I usually pair with a prime lens. Either my 50mm f/1.8 or 24mm f/2.8 lens. Sometimes with a telephoto lens. I never use the 18-55mm kit lens.
The photos always have more character than those taken on my phone.
So maybe out phones should do less. Or I need to take more advantage of the tools at my disposal. Especially given I spend time and energy lugging them around.
