The point isn’t technical ability, it’s market share. And smartphones have decimated DSLR market share despite being less technically able.

I’m a data point in that: I bought a DSLRs and a few lenses probably 15 years ago. Over the years I used them less and less to the point that they’re gathering dust now. It isn’t worth the extra bulk when I head out the door, smartphone cameras are good enough.



Decimated isn't that grim, still leaves 90% of the market. :^)


Words change in meaning over time. This isn't your Roman decimated.
