Sure Apple/Samsung boats how good their phones are in low light situations these days. But people forget how awful they were in the past. Cellphones were useless for low light even just a few years ago. They've made great strides, but the lower and lower light you go, cameras are the clear winner.
- meraklis56 5y agoI read somewhere, the photos from phones are looking great when are viewed on phones. The moment you view them on a big screen, you immediately understand the picture is not that great as you thought. One could argue the great screens of phones nowadays and the vivid colors affect the perception of the image

We could be standing next to each other, shooting the same subject. When people look at my photos, they go “That’s great!”, but when they look at hers, they forget all about mine.
- snapetom 5y agoAbsolutely. How you view photos absolutely come into play. Digital? Print? Viewing them on a monitor, even a huge one, has different requirements than, say taking a photo and making a wallpaper (as in a real wallpaper, on a real wall) out of it. I have terabytes of photos that look fine on screen, but if I printed it on an 8x10 to hang up, they look like crap.
