Have you looked at real "portrait mode" photos? They only really resemble narrow depth of field at thumbnail sizes, but as soon as you open them fullscreen, all of the mistakes jump out and make it look like a terrible Photoshop job. I'm sure it will get better, but I certainly wouldn't say it's anywhere near the last straw yet.
- wescarpenter 6y agoI think this was in regard to some of his clientele disappearing, due to a user looking at his portrait mode photos and saying "wow this looks like they were taking by a photographer!", potentially decreasing demand even though the absolute quality may not be comparable.
