Cellphone cameras are good, but not great at taking pictures of objects in a distance. I live in a flight path for a landing approach of an airport. Planes get low enough where I can sometimes read writing on them, but taking clear pictures of them with my iPhone 11 is still not great.
A year or two ago the President came to my city and leading up to and on the day of his visit there were V-22 Ospreys flying this path regularly. Seeing it in person was very cool, but the pictures I took look like I caught a picture of a neighborhoods kid toy helicopter from 100 yards away; tons of noise, artifacting, and lost detail.
