Vfunct, just stop it already. Ppl have explained endlessly about choices of apps you can use for WP. There's a bunch of instagram apps as well as very good camera apps in general.

The spares are dual use for if you run out of juice or the main card or battery fails. It happens.

it is the same reason shooting professionally you have a spare body. It makes great work as a...

SerenityNow,

you shouldn't try to sound so sure of yourself when expressing your opinion. Often opinions have a way of obstructing facts.

Nokia most certainly started mobile photography. Ppl were...

Phone cameras have come a long way but in general have still fallen short of examples set out by Nokia's 808. You get more tricks and doodads but I think we have a few generations yet before any...

Modern digital images have more data than you can visually see. You are not looking at the actual data but the interpretation of that data.

i'm not sure i'm understanding what you're trying to say. are you saying since their marketing is targetted at women, you don't want that association because you're a man?   or are you saying you...

the IQ difference on the Nokia when it's pureviewed down to 5MP is astounding.

I always saw it that the full res pureview images were just to capture as much detail as possible; while the bulk of...

I just got done with a shoot. 80GB of RAW.

I guess for very select personal photos I can see a use for cloud RAW; but even with a 100mbps connection, I'm not crazy enough to attempt an 80GB upload.

this is laregly more relevant for studio work. out in the field, it's a lot less useful unless you've got a whole team and setup.

also with newer cameras having connectivity built in, it won't be...

Hi Eraz, good guide but may I ask why you opted for an HDR type of processing over using a single RAW and adjusting black, shadow, white & highlights in the RAW editor?

I'd imagine you could get...

That is not an improvement at all. Its basically calculating nearest neighbour colour for blown highlights and then doing a fill of that colour.

You can see this by the fact that the "after" shot...

that's quite a knock against pros. Most people don't start off as pros and had their starts exactly like these kids.

The pros aren't argueing about the merits of cameras and equipment. They decide...

I think for many art forms/mediums, the idea/vision and the technical go hand in hand. I consider one or the other incomplete; sketches if you will.

Mastery involves the ability to utilise the...

i like his subject matter and he captures well but processing is the other 50% of photo making and inappropriate processing can work against your shot, like the many i see above.

they are heavy...

that girl jumping is an awesome shot. unfortunately the IQ is horrendous even from such a small thumbnail. probably better as a black and white but you lose tose colour streaks.

The lumia can resolve a lot of detail but the general performance overall is still heavily in favour of the mid to higher end cameras.

I can appreciate the detail here but it also misses in other...

I would actually like to see this as well. If we consider phones to be equivalent as point and shoots, I'd like to be able to compare relative performance. I think it makes a lot of sense if I, as...
