@moragperkins @ShittyCameraChallenge I think that's unavoidable if we're dabbling in optics?

@antinomy @ShittyCameraChallenge hah, my husband legit has this problem sometimes when he’s looking for cameras and lenses.

Sorry dude, the thing you want can’t possibly exist cos you’re hitting up against the laws of physics there and as a wise man once said ye cannae change them 🤷‍♀️

@moragperkins @ShittyCameraChallenge Back in the digital pocket camera days before decent smartphone photographs a guy in a shop was trying to sell me a little compact zoom Lumix and stared at me like I'd grown an extra head when I said something like "I mean, 8mPx is pretty good but do you think the optics actually justify that sort of sensor resolution?"

@moragperkins @ShittyCameraChallenge Anyway he stared at me for a bit, and then at the camera, and scratched his head, and eventually said "well, it's a Leica lens?" 🤣

@moragperkins @ShittyCameraChallenge I did buy it because it was on sale and I needed something handbag sized for a wedding the following weekend. It was pretty good for something so small. If I can find it (probably) and the charger (less likely) it might make a #ShittyCameraChallenge backup plan :)
