Pros of Using a Smartphone for Travel Photography
Size & Weight
There's no denying that smartphones are quite light, and even while some have become slightly larger in size, they're still small enough to slip in a purse or jacket pocket. Furthermore, you won't have to tie them to a camera strap, which means you won't be straining on your shoulder/neck all day, and you won't need to have a separate bag to preserve it. You won't be tempted to bring extra lenses, a flashgun, or other equipment with you, which will save room and weight.
More than a camera
Smartphones are wonderful because they can multitask. In addition to taking photographs and making phone calls, you can use the built-in map to plan routes, download applications that inform you where areas of interest are, and use it as a translator if you need to ask a question but don't know how to word it right.
Your phone will be with you anyway
You're probably not going to board the plane without your smartphone, so use it to capture images when you get at your location. Because of the amount of space available surrounding your flying seat, taking shots out the plane window of the intriguing patterns made by the land and water below you with a smartphone will be easy.
Share On Social
If you want to show Grandma your latest family photographs from your summer vacation, uploading them to social networks is one of the simplest methods to do it, and with a smartphone, you have instant access to Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and other social networking sites. This also means you have a backup of your vacation photos.
