I sold my DSLR kit this year because of this. It took fantastic pictures, but the effort of lugging all the gear around made it feel the purpose of each trip was to take pictures, not enjoy the trip itself.
Now I just use my phone. Photos may not be technically as good but they are still more than adequate and it’s just so much easier.
It’s crazy how good phones are. I was sat here for an hour or so gathering a time lapse of the sun setting and then doing some long exposures of streaking taxi cab lights. The best single photo I got all day (the one that required the least amount of processing) was this one from my phone.
