Lately I have had a fascination with photography. I have been learning more about it, practicing and talking to sophomore and junior film majors about DSLRs and GH4s and REDs and the list goes on. Listening to them talk about things like frame rate, aperture, and different lenses has been amazing! However, the more that I use my Iphone camera (iphone6s-plus) to practice photography and some little films, I see that it has the potential to work almost as well as the cameras the film students use. Now, it is important to give credit where it is do before I praise the Iphone. HU film majors armed with their GH4s and Cannons far surpass the amateur work that I produce with a cell phone. The thing that I find interesting though is that the capabilities of the Iphone seem comparable to the GH4s and Cannons. I was talking with my close friend Aaron about the GH4 he had rented. We were comparing the capabilities of our cameras and they seemed similar. I will discuss in part two of this blog the comparisons. The main point that I am trying to discuss though is that cell phone cameras (in particular the Iphone) are becoming comparable to professional film equipment.
