I asked grok About a simple cam thats at least as good as the cams of iPhone 15 pro and/or the latest Google pixel Models.
I just want quick unprofessional photos that still Look nice and Detailed.
He recommended to to me the following Models and I Need yalls opinion:
- Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark III
- Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark II
- Panasonic Lumix ZS200 (TZ200)
- Panasonic Lumix ZS200 (TZ200)
To be honest I wanted something below 500€ but I guess I have to reach deeper into my pockets for something nice. Do yall think its worth paying quite a bit more? Or would yall Not pay much more for a nice compact cam?
If you have other recommendations please do throw them into Discussion!
Edit: sheesh i forgot this is lemmy with all the anti ai stuff. In any case I understand the hate but can we please just focus on the matter at Hand?
They’re all the same and most of their answers are complete horseshit. Don’t give in to this shit, it makes you lose your ability to discern truth from lies. It’s just another tool to turn people into mindless, propaganda-gobbling zombies.
Anyhow, if you want quick photos that look good without additional editing, then phones are likely your best bet. I’m not aware of compact cameras that have the kind of computing power and enhancement algorithms on board. I don’t like the kind of photos iPhones makez but you’ll fool most people with the pictures you take on an iPhone. There are also quite a few good android phones.
Mirrorless cameras are the way to go if you want to change lenses but that’ll be way over the budget you set yourself. Even the a6400 costs a small fortune when paired with a good lens or two, and that’s really the beginner’s segment. Then you need good software for developing the raw photos and that’s a hobby itself.
