An integrated smartphone / mirrorless workflow

'An integrated smartphone / mirrorless workflow.' 
Gosh that sounds impressive!

So on Saturday I went out with my Panasonic GX7 + 45-175mm X power zoom and my two phones. Nokia Lumia 1020 and Blackberry Q10. Three cameras, all small and light.

All the title of this post means is that I carry a phone(s) and another mirrorless camera. But it sounds much better.

Incidentally, isn't it about time we came up with another word for mirrorless? Cameras with mirrors, i.e. SLR's and DSLR's are actually the minority. Point and shoot compacts, rangefinders and phone cameras don't have mirrors in them, but that's maybe not what most people regard as a 'mirrorless' camera. However in a world that uses 'Full-Frame' to mean 35mm sized and talks about plastic lenses as 'glass', I see little hope for precise, accurate and descriptive language.
