this episode of technobuffalo is brought to you by audible hello internet and welcome back to another episode of ask the Buffalo the show where you can ask me actually ask ever any question you might have from the wild world of technology and maybe beyond every tuesday we put up a call for questions at TechnoBuffalo calm you can leave your question in the post comment otherwise just send them to me anytime of the day or night on twitter at TechnoBuffalo or at Ashley ask ebba just use the hashtag ask the be so I can see it usually I'll answer between three and five questions every episode so let's get answering because this is ask the Buffalo Mitch asks hey Ashley with a major emphasis on a camera within a smart phone these days do you think we are getting close to the day where a DSLR sensor may soon be put into a phone if so what do you think that will do to the DSLR market well Mitch so here's the deal I would love more than anything to see a company like canon or nikon put a lens of theirs that they developed and manufactured into a phone like say the Nexus 5 it would be amazing obviously I would die for something like that i'm a huge AV geek all i want is more power in my smartphone cameras unfortunately there's a couple of problems with that number one is cost to the consumer that's definitely gonna be a cost that's past the end of the consumer and I don't think a DSLR style or caliber lens is gonna cost you 1 99 on contracts I'm gonna cost you a lot more than that so that's probably number one reason why it's not gonna happen and the second one is cannibalizing their own line of point-and-shoot phones so companies like canon and nikon might have a shrinking market for point shoot but they really don't necessarily have a shrinking market in DSLR i think it's actually growing because a lot of people are feeling well my smartphone is my point-and-shoot now so I'm gonna get a prosumer camera and then they get a camera like the 70d so I would say those are the two big reasons we won't actually see that come to the market but with Sony's qx100 we might see something like that where Canon and Nikon make a device that actually attaches to your smartphone and then uses their lens technology to take a picture veigar tasks hi ashley what is the one technological device you cannot out and why my car is the one technological device I couldn't live without I know that doesn't seem like a technological device anymore it seems very mechanical but I would pretty my live and die by my car I mean it's the only way I can come to work it's the only way I can go to see my family um there are a million reasons why I love my car but if I had to pick a gadget I would definitely say my smartphone i mean that's that's the device my whole life is inside the thing on my pictures all my stuff but you know if i didn't have a car really have a lot of other ways of getting around in southern california we don't have public transportation like a lot of you guys out there we kind of do and it's kind of ok so i would say my car first but if i had to pick a little gadget i would obviously say my smartphone Tanner or at then Dyson I hope I got that right asks out of every launch game of the ps4 and xbox one which one is your favorite there's only one answer to this question obviously it's resogun for the PlayStation 4 I don't care if it's on playstation plus i don't care if it's an indie developer house mark did an incredible job it's probably one of the most polished watch titles out of both consoles and well it's just really fun so yeah resogun ryan asks hey Ashley what do you and the rest of the herd do in your spare time do you guys hang out or thanks the thing about technobuffalo is we don't actually see each other a whole lot outside of work but being here in the office is our hanging out so we spend all of our days hanging out here and having a fun time like nerf wars we have baskets of cookies that we all share it's delicious I will joke around hang out everything all day we get a lot of work done but we also play hard too so it's just really fun to hang out during the day time here at the office so I think we've had enough of each other by the end of the day and then we all go home and and then I get sad because i miss lucy lucy johnson lucy is literally my favorite part of coming into the office but everyone else is all right too I gotta interrupt the show for just a quick second to talk about our good friends and sponsors at audible sitting in Southern California traffic sucks or at least it used to suck
