I mostly agree. I have three DSLRs and several very high-end lenses, but I take way more photos of my kids with my phone than with the DSLRs. The workflow for getting shots out of the phone is just so much better than the cameras, and the phone is always with me.

This isn’t an insurmountable problem. Some Nikon camera bodies have Wi-Fi. If they cared to they could make it much much easier to get photos off and process them. It’s just not a focus of theirs.



That's the thing. All my Nikon cameras have some sort of wifi or Bluetooth or nfc. All of it is a pain.

I agree their hardware and optics are superb. I don't even begin to understand how their work flow or integration are anything but atrocious.

They could make their integration software better or let others do it - but they don't!


Yeah, I've got connectivity--and I never use it. I'm not shooting with a PC nearby, I'm bringing home a camera full of shots. And it's *far* faster to pop the card in my PC than transmit them.
