Smartphones wiped out 97% of the compact camera market
This makes total sense. Most people are far better off with a smartphone. Easy to use, photos are right there, preserved in the cloud, etc.What Apple and others killed is the lowest possible segment. There's still a pretty healthy ecosystem of small-ish mirrorless cameras and, of course, DSLR, which you could buy if you need one.I really like my Fujifilm and all the nice buttons it has. But one of the key advantages is that its photos simply look different from an iPhone.
