Cameras are, of course, designed to take high-quality photos. And phone cameras have improved so much that they are a credible alternative to cameras. But which is better to take photos with? A digital camera or a phone? Is one better than the other? Or is there a place for both?

Most people have phones these days, and most phones have cameras built into them. So why would you need a camera? Well, there are differences, and I am going to tell you what they are.

In this episode, I tell you.

• The main differences between cameras and cameras in phones.
• Why you might be OK with your phone.
• And why you might benefit from getting a camera (and all the other stuff that goes with having a camera).
• About the taking photos bit.
• What I do.
• And why I do what I do.

All explained in plain English, without the irrelevant detail, in less than 27 (ish) minutes!

What is not to love? How utterly splendid.
