But our friend told me that a camera also has the same potential, which I hadn’t realised.

I am always changing mine – usually on full but I have used 1:1 for Becky’s squares which look to have come to an end now. I also have a pro setting which is good for experimenting with, in fact it is easier to change settings in my phone (5 years old do not a recent one) than on my camera.
(And although I am logged in, even says so, I still got the message and lost my first comment)

Thank you. I thought I go quite lucky just ‘pointing and shooting’!

It’s not just that. The pointing is very important.

Fair point. Thank you.

I’m sure you have seen pictures where the pointing wasn’t all that good. 😉
