There's a lot of pressure on smartphone makers to make really good image processing software because they are extremely restricted hardware wise -- there's just no space for a proper lens and a big chip. And it's amazing how far they've gotten in the past few years. Phones are now better cameras than most point-and-shoots.
I wonder if there's any chance that some of that amazing software makes it's ways to pro cameras? It seems that camera companies can't keep up.
For example, the autofocus and whitebalance on my phone is almost always spot-on and perfect. My 'real' camera (a Fujifilm X100T) often gets the focus wrong, and the automatic white-balance is not as reliable. It seems like camera makers just can't keep up on the software side.
