I asked grok About a simple cam thats at least as good as the cams of iPhone 15 pro and/or the latest Google pixel Models.

I just want quick unprofessional photos that still Look nice and Detailed.

He recommended to to me the following Models and I Need yalls opinion:

  • Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark III
  • Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark II
  • Panasonic Lumix ZS200 (TZ200)

To be honest I wanted something below 500โ‚ฌ but I guess I have to reach deeper into my pockets for something nice. Do yall think its worth paying quite a bit more? Or would yall Not pay much more for a nice compact cam?

If you have other recommendations please do throw them into Discussion!

Edit: sheesh i forgot this is lemmy with all the anti ai stuff. In any case I understand the hate but can we please just focus on the matter at Hand?

I dont understand whats the issue with getting more than 1 source of Info? Especially when half the replies on this thread are either dont use ai or Stick to a smartphone even though i asked for Camera recommendations specifically.. (Not saying they dont have their Place ofc but cmon)

Admittedly the other source of Info does Not have to be ai but can we just forget that for a Moment? This post is Not about ai and honestly i shouldnt even have mentioned to have used grok in the First Place atp
