Travel without a camera
So me and the family went to London over the weekend and I dared myself to
not bring a camera along, using only my iPhone: http://jonaseklundh.se/pages/Resa_Utan_Kamera All shot with the iPhone, all edited on the iPhone (or in Photos on the Mac, but it's pretty much the same controls). Many photos are blown out and it's nowhere near to compete with a full format sensor when it comes to dynamic range or ISO, but for shooting touristy shots in London, I think it did pretty well, actually. The "depth effect" cheat is pretty awesome at faking a short focal range, and the saturation and contrast is really good to begin with. -- Sandman |

Get a better phone next time you're to renew your contract: https://www.dxomark.com/Mobiles Scores on the right! I'm still very happy with my Xperia M4, got to love them Ms (pun intended) as a good pocket instamatic drop in replacement. :-)) -- teleportation kills |

Would that really make much difference? I'm still very happy with my Xperia M4, The M5 is a fair way down (79) - so an iphone 7 would likely be a considerable step up - for you? :-) -- Cheers, Rob |

As said: A phone cam is a drop in replacement for a pocket instamatic and the Canon EOS M is with me most of the time. It's a compact seized mirrorless. I don't plan to get a new phone within a year but when I do it will most likely be a Xperia, I don't think that an iPhone will give me better pictures than the M4 anyways. Samples from the M4 can be found on my blog: http://wp.me/p3strj-2O -- teleportation kills |

All nice photos, but I believe it has more, or everything, to do with the fact that you are quite good at photography. Pretty much any decent camera phone would have given you equally good results, even if they were different in some ways. |

You didn't take many it seems. What I did notice which I''ve noticed with my iphone7 is the rather unpredicable setting the iphone sets regarding aperature, exposure time, & ISO Not that I think there's a way of changing them at the time. examples:- Apertu F1.8, Exposu 1/1350 s, ISO: 20 Apertu F2.8, Exposu 1/99 s, ISO: 250 Apertu F2.8, Exposu 1/50 s, ISO: 640 Apertu F1.8, Exposu 1/5319 s, ISO: 20 Just use an app such as VSCO, Camera+, or ProCamera. Any of those will give you all the exposure flexibility you could want with an iPhone, giving you the capability to select shutter, or aperture priority, choose an ISO, or stay with auto ISO, or go full manual. -- Regards, Savageduck |

The shot of the London eye is very nice, shows the capability of the camera very well, as well as the skill of the one holding it. |

If you BSI and such then that is something that APPL can't offer and that gives you more to work with in post. Wanna have an one inch sensor "in" your iPhone? Then get one of these: http://www.dxo.com/us/dxo-one Samples galore he https://www.flickr.com/groups/dxoone/pool/ https://www.dxomark.com/Mobiles Scores on the right!
