I have a very simple question, not trying to offend anyone, will it take better photos than iPhone 15 pro max
Yes, it has a much larger sensor size, and the lens allow for more choice on zoom, plus the background bokeh will be natural not computational photography
Define better
Better like Samsung S24 Ultra?
Yeah, it will generally take better photos than the iPhone, especially in low light and for more detailed shots.
It has the potential to easily surpass, but with a lot more time, effort and potentially money.
Some people enjoy the process, most probably don't.Generally, if you're not willing to put any more effort than point and shoot with something you already carry, good idea to stay away or you'll risk wasting money.
Not sure why you got downvoted, you're 100% correct. As a photographer, my phone shoots some pretty good pics that I don't even have to edit!
Better in every way, except portability.
Something newbies should know however is that it's a lot more complicated than it's 'better'. The iPhone 15 will take exceptionally good 'looking' photo's (automation and post processing) with near zero effort. This camera / lens has the 'potential' to take better photos. But if you gave the 2 cameras to a person, there's no guarantee of photo quality from this - but there is a good likelihood that it would look good with the iPhone. Better potential? Definitely Yes. Better no matter what? No.
i mean, Auto mode and AF exist. And tell newbies that smol aperture number = bokeh and they would be able to handle aperture priority mode.
i recently went into the Leica boutique store to try out Leica M11 with the 50mm Summilux. I'm not new to Leica nor manual focus lenses and now that is a camera that actually requires some skill to compose photos.
most cameras these days have EVF with preview, when i started with a 550D back in 2010 i had to look through a small and dark viewfinder. idk what's so hard about it.
A good reason to buy a seperate camera are for these reasons:
You want real RAW photos you want to edit each photo in photoshop etc.
You want real natural Bokeh rather then the cheap filter that phones apply poorly.
You want a proper high resolution photo for printing (Phone resolution is generally worse pixel vs pixel)
You take photos or videos in dark areas or at night time and you aren't shooting under perfect conditions. For example the subject is moving or its windy (Becuause image stacking performs poorly under those conditions)
If you are just taking photos to throw on Facebook or Instagram then I wouldn't bother, your photos are going to be heavily compressed anyway.
I have 3 Canon DSLR Bodies, 9 lenses and been a photographer for 30 years and had a photography business for 15.
I'd put all of it on a bet you could not tell the difference between a normal photo I take with a consumer DSLR or my iPhone 15 ProMax after basic post processing shooting in Raw on both.
Excluding my MPE65 Macrozoom or telezoom shots they do the same thing but the phone is so much easier.Having actual control over the exposure for low light, fast shutters speeds for action and the use of specialty lenses are really the biggest features on a DSLR.
Its ridiculously easy to tell. Phone cameras are substantially different in many ways.
But that really depends on which DSLR we are comparing it to as well.
bro, you're in the business for 15 years surely you could appreciate the difference in rendering, tonality and also subject separation.
The answer is not simple at all. If you have a still subject, then a proper camera beats an iPhone any day thanks to the larger sensor size. It is incredibly satisfying shooting portraits with a f1.4 lens.
I actually prefer to shoot kids photos on an iPhone on live mode. It will more likely capture the moment and have the subject in focus.
I shoot and print, then put up on walls. Love to look and walk pass our photos everyday instead of storing them digitally on a phone and so seldom looked at…
A lot of cameras (including this one) have a burst mode that starts firing when the button is half pressed (Canon call it "pre-shooting"), similar to the Apple Live View
Sony’s new $999 camera vs. an iPhone 15 Pro Max - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BP7FZsx0gz4
Although a Sony camera, the points in the video are excellent.
From a personal experience - 'it depends'.
Coming from an iPhone 14 Pro Max, the carry convenience, fast editing with apps and low light performance of the phone is amazing in a pinch.
A DSLR or MILC will excel under most professional environments where more control is needed. Use of single or multiple strobes. Specialised lens where the performance and focal lengths cannot be replicated on an iPhone i.e. sports, wildlife, action photography especially at long distances. Times when post processing work is needed beyond what ProRAW can do on an iPhone.
I was asked recently by a friend who wanted a camera for casual photography and I recommended a high end iPhone. A lot, but not all, occasional photographers purchase a camera for the novelty aspect and within months it is sitting on a shelf gathering dust as they do not realise the weight, accessories (lens, batteries, bag, shoulder strap, etc), investment in workshops, lessons and practise, etc required to achieve the photos they see made by others with similar gear online.
If you want to see what gear and skills are capable of take a look under 500px.com and Flickr where you can search under specific terms and see what is possible.
Can someone tell me why camera is so expensive now? Like Sony a6400, aii mirrorless camera, already out for many years , but price ….
Low demand, sensors this size are pretty expensive to make, if someone made a cheap smaller sensor camera, nobody would buy it in this day and age over a phone
In case you hadn't heard, there's this thing called inflation
Do you think only cameras were expensive or same with everything else?
The market for cheap cameras has been eaten up by phones.
I have M50 Mark II and the ability to use RF lenses is tempting.
I assume these lenses are different to the M50 ones, so you need an adapter to use those?
Tried to order - Does anyone know why the Good Guys site on Ebay restricts postage - "There are problems with some of your items". Wont accept Queensland address ?
Will this be good with a macro lens for iris photography
Yes it should do great paired up with something like the 100mm macro*.
At least much better then the iPhone that everyone is comparing it to in this thread.*I'm not sure how the crop factor will effect this lens.
Will it be better if you go for a shorter focal length?
Or will the crop factor be advantageous in practice?
Hopefully someone with practical experience can chime in.
Good choice for beginner starting up photography hobby, haven't seen such good deal on cameras for a few years now. This also allows some growing up later with good third parties like Sigma f/2.8 zooms or f/1.4 primes.
