I’ve been using the iPhone 12 Pro and 13 Pro to shoot the Northern Lights in Iceland. With a tripod you can get astonished results.

This may sound bitter to all Apple fans.

A phone camera can never be as good as a DSLR the sensors and the electronics used in a phone vs a camera is completely different. The sensors used in a phone is very small compared to the sensors used in the camera. Most of the shots highlighted mainly using AI and algorithms. Hence you feel like the photos are too good.

Whereas this isn’t the case with point and shoot cameras. I feel phone cameras are equally good maybe even better. Due to this I do not think there are any point and shoot cameras in the market that is worth mentioning.

Could you post a full size shot?

Yep but it definitely killed the point and shoot. People used to carry an ipod, a sidequick and a point and shoot camera. The fact that phones are producing such amazing images is ducking amazing.

Absolutely. Don’t forget better glass.

This may sound bitter to all DSLR fans.

A DSLR camera can never be as good as a film camera. A DSLR can never replicate a the shots of a Portra 400 or 800 film.

Yes. And no. My 14 Pro Max has produced some pretty good hand held night mode shots. Whereas my full frame 6D and R6 have had some issues with shakiness. 😩

What you said is correct. But this applies only for a Crop Frame. However on a full frame camera, the raw images produced are sometimes even better than the ones attained by the film cameras. To add the Lightroom software helps to make limitless post processing possibilities and tweaking.

Post production on the Film cameras were a headache and the colours and the details were never as eye popping.

You can always compare a full frame DSLR produced image vs a film based camera image to understand the difference better. (Google it)
