Yeah, then do that. My point is that it doesn’t take a lot of money to surpass flagship smartphone cameras anymore. Plus Google is not obsessively looking at your dick pics that way.

…It will soon though. Thats what Im saying.
Current Xiaomis and Hisense, and the next iPhone, are gonna be straight up better than a $1800 OM-3, hand down. At least outside of the supertelephoto range. Loifc is a HUGE deal, it is coming to most smartphones, and OM’s processing is stuck in 2015.
That’s where my doubt lies. Is it really gonna be better than a pro doing exposure bracketing? Because my point is that you don’t have to buy a brand new $1800 camera from last year. When a camera from a decade ago will excel that performance with only a tiny bit of practice and skill for a third of the price of a new phone. Phone cameras have gone a long way, but they are physically limited in ways that no new sensor can overcome. New material tech is not going to surpass basic light geometry.
Are 8 extra stops of performance going to justify a new AI riddled, surveillance and privacy nightmare device? When you can get 24, 30 or more stops of performance with a decade old tech. I don’t think so. The average hobbyist who wants better technical specs for photography would be misled if they looked at new smartphones and not into the recent past of digital cameras. And stop obsessing over OM, that’s a tangent on my comment and just my personal preference. A Sony, Canon or Fuji would fit just as well into the argument if that’s the buyer’s preference.
