Pro photographers: Do you own an iPhone or Droid
I am in development for a photo related device and I need to find out what phone is preferred for professionals. Please reply with iPhone, Droid or other please. Thanks! Oct 01 12 09:45 pm Link iPhone. but I seriously don't see why this would matter in the least. If you're developing something in relation to a phone, or more specifically, an operating system, you'd be shooting half your foot off if you didn't develop for both platforms.

Make it usable by everyone and available as well. Oct 01 12 10:00 pm Link iPhone Oct 01 12 10:03 pm Link 2 iPhones (a 3Gs and a 4s) and an iPad 3.

Oct 01 12 10:04 pm Link I totally agree and we do plan on making it for both, but we need to make a presentation to the investors and this survey's results will be part of it. Oct 01 12 10:10 pm Link iPhone Oct 01 12 10:17 pm Link One that links with my slate ( tablet ) and allows flash and google maps. The OS one person uses should not be the grounds for making your own choice, it should be what is going to suit you. Alternatively - don't be a sheep, show that you are discerning in what you will use. Oct 01 12 10:40 pm Link Pro photographers: Do you own an iPhone or Droid I've seen THOUSANDS of photographers on this site who appear to be content with showcasing cell phone images in their port...  ...  Do they possess amazing lenses and fabulous sensors?...  Hate to break your heart... not a single cell phone pic on these images pages...  Oct 01 12 11:19 pm Link ^^^ photoimager, you do realize that sheep occupy both sides of the fence right? iPhone for me since I committed to linking all my devices together in the beginning for portfolio and networking reasons... It really shouldn't matter anyways what I or anyone uses, just use what feels right to you that will get the job done and fits your daily life. Oct 01 12 11:23 pm Link Samsung Galaxy SIII.

He's conducting an informal market survey of potential customers for an application to run on their phones. Oct 01 12 11:28 pm Link Lyman Photography Inc wrote: Paid app? It's not just a question of whether there are more iOS or Android phones in your target market. Generally, it's easier to get iOS owners to pay for apps than Android owners. Oct 01 12 11:30 pm Link Droid Razr Maxx here - I get max bars just about everywhere even on location in the mountains of Madison County and the battery literally lasts for days....

Oct 01 12 11:39 pm Link Robert Lynch wrote: Easier, because generally speaking you have to pay for most of what you download on an iPhone versus Android. I haven't paid for an app or any of hundreds and hundreds of songs yet for my Droid. Oct 01 12 11:50 pm Link Lyman Photography Inc wrote: Apple iPhone 4s and 5 have the best phone cameras going. If I were going to build a photo related app, I'd start there. I wish my Droid took the quality of images the iPhones do. Oct 01 12 11:53 pm Link I personally like the android but I use an ipad (which can't use flash) so code for both mediums.

Oct 01 12 11:55 pm Link Droid Oct 02 12 12:05 am Link Droid. I never plan to buy an iphone. You should really do both. Oct 02 12 12:07 am Link Android. Oct 02 12 12:13 am Link Long time iPhone user and have converted away from the Dark Side. Am now using a Samsung Galaxy SII and am upgrading to the SIII next week! Oct 02 12 12:17 am Link iphone To each their own, but im not sure why people are bringing up flash. since it is no longer being developed for android anyways. http://www.digitaltrends.com/mobile/ado … a-whimper/ Oct 02 12 12:30 am Link I don't think you can go wrong with either platform. I'm an Android user, both systems have devices that are as capable. Flip a coin. There's some stiff competition for remote controlling on the Android side. DSLR controller allows me to tether to my Nexus 7, connect to my phone with wifi, and control things wirelessly with liveview. Or I can just use the Nexus 7, but there's a lot of possibilities for me for wireless use. I also downloaded some other free versions of other apps but not as mature as DSLR controller. Oct 02 12 01:00 am Link iPhone 4s Oct 02 12 01:08 am Link Samsung S3. Just found it better all round. Plus I hate small screens. Will be getting a Samsung Note II when my provider has it. Also if you are developing a photo application keep in mind that Android is designed with operating cameras in mind. It has already been used in a new Samsung and Nikon camera. Google just bought Nik Software so you can expect to see more photography orientation being integrated into the Android OS. Oct 02 12 01:14 am Link iPhone 4S and iPad 2. I find easy to share images across platforms. I also hear that iPhone users will pay for apps more easily. Look at Apples recent financials and the performance of the app store Oct 02 12 01:19 am Link Old T-Mobile G2 (HTC Desire-Z) here, rooted with custom ICS rom. ... but I also own a first generation iPad (jailbroken iOS 5.1.1), and I'm a mac user (early 2008 macbook).

Oct 02 12 06:32 am Link Android, Samsung galaxy2 Model Mayhem's forum is now the place where developers study what "professionals" use, eh? Oct 02 12 06:36 am Link iPhone Oct 02 12 06:40 am Link Lyman Photography Inc wrote: iPhone 5 Oct 02 12 07:28 am Link Let's say both platforms are needed. I have had an iPone and I am typing on an iPad but move to an android phone a long time ago, mostly because AT&T sucked and they were the only choice then. But I really like the 7" tablet format that Apple is still refusing to make, so I carry a android tablet. As a man I like that it fits in my jacket pocket. My iPad just feels out of place as I really have no place for it. Oct 02 12 07:38 am Link Robert Lynch wrote: How many songs have you downloaded for free? Oct 02 12 08:05 am Link Ally Moy wrote: +1 Oct 02 12 08:12 am Link I have Android (Samsung Galaxy SII & Acer Iconia A200 tablet) but that's just a preference. But develop for both. Oct 02 12 08:18 am Link If you got this poll done and have something or anything of a result, you aint got to develop anything at all to sell. Just sell the word on the choice of the photographers. I am sure there are companies in line to pay for such knowledge! That said, I stay away from I-anything! Oct 02 12 08:25 am Link I have an iphone and a blackberry playbook tablet. Personally, I'd like to see more apps made for the playbook. yeah they are the underdog right now but it's still a good platform. Oct 02 12 08:32 am Link |
