I am impressed by the new iPhones but am only going to either buy an iPhone 11 or a Fuji XE-3 with the new 16-80 f4 for 'street' shooting
I am looking for ease of shooting both in the sense of being able to get a shot fast (i.e. time from pocket to shutter press, including good framing, etc), and in the sense of discreetly (i.e. which makes you more obvious , if any)
Obviously one is much easer to carry, one will have better quality for enlargements, etc.
But I do wonder whether raising an iPhone to your eye makes people more, less or the same amount of self conscious , or whether it takes longer to compose using the iPhone (I always use the EVF/OVF on camera), or whether zooming is a slow inaccurate process on the iPhone, etc
So..price aside and for still photography only..........which should I get and and why?
From those that already have used smartphones to shoot and have actual experience to compare...our esteemed opinions please....
(yes I have read the reviews)
My wife just picked up the iPhone 11 Pro mostly for its camera. She was never interested in photography before she had to use her iPhone X while on vacation and fell in love with it.
I have to say the iPhone 11 Pro can produce some very good images and she is out in the yard, in the woods, and every place else taking images. Then she is bugging the Hell out of me to help her edit them. There are mixed feelings about that. I installed Luminar flex on her Mac so she could use Photos since I did not want to have to listen to her whine about teaching her C1.
So depending on what your want and on your final image destination - from what I have seen the iPone 11 is a very good option.
