What is your camera? I'll use this picture, sorry about my mug showing, I could not get it done otherwise. The camera is a Panasonic DMC 2550, I think. It is worn on the tag. It is small enough to be fairly handy. I'm sure there are better units out there.

Mine is a Nikon D5500, but I really need to send the 70-300mm lens in for motor repair.

Still have a collection of cameras (mostly film) and lenses. But my current digital camera is a full frame Nikon Df, which is compatible with all my Nikon lenses, and has excellent analog controls.

Shooting a Canon rebel with the 18-55 kit lens and a Tamron 18-270.
Also a really handy shirt-pocket Canon PowerShot ELPH 115 IS.
Actually looking for something sized in between primarily for scenery pics for an upcoming trip.

I still use an older Nikon D200 body. My primary lens is an AF-S Nikkor 18-200 variable, but I also have an AF-VR Nikkkor 80-400 for wildlife photography. I bought the long lens before my second trip to Namibia and didn't take it off the camera the whole time I was in the field.
I also carry a Nikon Cool Pix AW 100 that takes remarkably good photos and fits in a shirt pocket. It has a 5X zoom and is pretty much shock proof and water proof in normal use. It is the one that I use for all the casual photos and "grip and grin" stuff in the field.

I use a Cannon Powershot SX410 IS. I know enough not to fool with any of the settings and let it do its thing... on auto. It'll zoom the lens to 40x and then digital zoom out to 160x. Now yall know as much as I do.

With a camera, you have to remember to take it. I think my phone is built in my pocket. I never forget it, if I do, I’m turning around, going to get it.

With my camera, I have to remember to charge the battery pack.
I already do that with my phone.
