iPhone 7 Camera Quality
Here's a link to some sample photos from the iPhone 7. http://thenextweb.com/apple/2016/09/07/ … tion/#gref For a photo from a phone, they look amazing to me personally. Currently I have the iPhone 6 and at 100% zoom view, compared to my D800 it is no where near as good, nor did I expect it to. I'm amazed at how good these iPhone 7 pics look. If I didn't know before hand these were smart phone photos, I'd never have guessed. What do you guys think? Just strictly asking about the camera here, not about the phone? BTW not sure if these sample photos started off as RAW photos. iPhone 7 has that feature now. Sep 07 16 07:11 pm Link I'm sorry to be a stick in the mud but only apple could be happily hyping as the latest trend setter for something that hasn't even yet caught up to a camera phone I have had for two years now. That said and not trying to be a dick, I hope you enjoy it. it does look fun for a camera phone. My already outdated and has a new model out for over a year now camera phone specs. http://www.lg.com/us/mobile-phones/g4/camera Sep 07 16 09:23 pm Link I'm sure this new camera will be absolutely outstanding at taking selfies and pictures of that great looking plate of Spaghetti at the Olive Garden. Sep 07 16 09:58 pm Link Years ago I read an article that asked, "Is the iPhone the only camera you'll need?" I emphatically said "NO!" But I read the article anyway. Very convincing. So I took some fotos of the same subject using a DSLR and an iPhone and then submitted them to my photography instructors (plural). Neither could discriminate the source device based on the unretouched images. But I held out "Until they come out with RAW, I'm going to keep my DSLR." Now it appears that objection is removed. So I'm coming up with another one--"Size matters." ;-) "How it feels in my hands matters." These are all true. Typically, at a real shoot, I'll whip out the iPhone and take a few shots to help models conceptually potentially transition but also to get some for social media and to back up the main camera. Had a hard time transitioning from film to digital because the original digitals were far inferior to current. I do not EVER see myself figuring out how to slave studio lights to my iPhone as master, etc. May be that's a lack of foresight. I've learned rarely to say never. So I'm not saying I never will, I said I just don't ever see myself. Maybe it's a lack of vision. Sep 07 16 10:09 pm Link FFantastique wrote: We cant be far from blue tooth light adjustment apps.

Sep 07 16 10:22 pm Link Long time Apple user here (still using the 5S) and I have to say that this new release has 'underwhelming' written all over it! Just meh!

Sep 08 16 02:50 pm Link I'm confident that the iPhone 7 camera will be amazing. But then the camera on my Samsung Galaxy S7 is pretty amazing but doesn't come close to replacing my dslr. Sep 08 16 03:16 pm Link Cook is slowly killing Apple. He'd rather sell $16,000 watches than innovate something new and wonderful.

Sep 16 16 11:46 am Link A major sales point is that it won't turn your airliner into a blazing ball of fire, something the Samsung might do. Or maybe they should call the Samsung not a "smart phone" but rather a "smart bomb." From an FAA news release: September 16- Following a Consumer Product Safety Commission recall of the Samsung Galaxy Note 7, the FAA is issuing general guidance to airlines about the rules for carrying recalled or defective lithium devices on board aircraft as cargo or in carry-on luggage. U.S. hazardous material regulations prohibit air cargo shipments of recalled or defective lithium batteries and lithium battery-powered devices, and passengers may not turn on or charge the devices when they carry them on board a plane. Passengers must also protect the devices from accidental activation, including disabling any features that may turn on the device, such as alarm clocks, and must not pack them in checked luggage. .....
