This makes me wish I could get an aftermarket lens for the camera I bought a few months ago. Only issue is I presume this was probably shot with a professional camera and not an average "family photo" quality camera.
I think you're very much underestimating your "family photo" camera. There's lots of consumer grade cameras with lens systems available that will blow your mind
For someone who hasn't owned a camera outside of a phone before, it is impressive, but I'm also admittedly a little jealous of stuff like this. All I got is a supposed 15x optical zoom and supposed 12.1 megapixel images.
in fact this picture was taken on a 12 Megapixel camera Sony A7s from 2014
