The glass is a key. I usually can't beat my iphone with bargain glass, but with wide aperture L series glass I trounce the phone handily.
Subject matter is another factor. A pretty view never runs away, and adults hold still for a picture, yet by contrast children & sports aren't going to wait for the phone to focus.
- trap_goes_hot 4y agoFor me, my phone can cover almost most shooting situations. I think the areas where dedicated cameras can still handily trounce phones are low-light scenes (proper astro, shooting night events.. like sporting events or other parties with dim/poor lighting), sports/action/wildlife, studio photography with strobes, and extreme macro (4x, 10x objectives mated to a dedicated sensor). I use my phone's camera almost every day for just documenting shit, like receipts, business cards or when I am disassembling something, or other random projects. I love the geo-tagging of photos, along with a date based bucketing and that allows me to easily go back and look shit up.
