About the photos .. it finally happened.
More mobile photos where taken than with our trusty Nikon!
(Read our New Zealand post, why trusty .. rain damage on both Mobile and Nikon D750)

This has multiple reasons:

• Coline took loads of mobile phone pictures.
  (I was mostly in charge of the Nikon)
  She is trigger happy ..
• We didn’t take the big camera always with us at night, going for dinner.
• Sometimes it was too hot for me to focus on taking good pictures.
• I didn’t make panoramic and time-lapse photos.

Why still use dlsr?

• Better sensors (larger image chip) Small image ICs give more cross noise due to the image pixelsensors being to close to each other)
  So more pixels does NOT equal better images!
• More control over your settings.
• Better lenses and faster. Better aperture equals better DOF!!
