Phone camera

[treesprite]

Would you buy a phone just for a better phone camera if your phone is what you use to take tank pics?  I have to buy a new phone, and my service provider has two models with 48 mp cameras, and an additional macro feature. I thought nowadays phone cameras only went up to 16 mp, which is what I have. The 16 mp camera is okay for most tank pics that aren't close up, but too close means blurry.

IPhone quality rivals dslr according to the interweb. Having said taht I have an android with pro mode on the camera and you can adjust white balance if you have leds

I upgraded to the s20 for that purpose. I couldn't justify getting a dslr at the moment when the phone can do much more than taking pictures.

That said, a phone can never rival a GOOD dslr with the right lens.

If you just want better pictures but not seeking professional quality, upgrading phones is not a bad choice.

You really don’t need a higher MP camera just for the aquarium unless you are printing large images. Especially if the issue is with closeups. You can buy a clip on accessory that comes with filters and a macro lens. I have the one linked below and it works well.  https://www.amazon.com/Reefing-Art-Professional-Photography-Aquarium/dp/B07TRXTPSG
