BEEN WAY UNDER THE WEATHER FOR A FEW DAYS so my posting as been sub par. However, I awoke today only to read yet another flat-out stupid / ignorant / mis-informed Mike Johnston statement, re: the iPhone as a picture making device is...
"...not quite there from a technical standpoint. It's perfectly adequate for taking pictures to be viewed on...itself. And for emailing and texting. (And for putting on the blog, maximum width 800 pixels.) But I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be as happy with it if I were making even small prints."
He then goes on to write that "Although I should try that. I also don't own the latest thing in iPhones; mine is a 7+, released almost exactly four years ago."
So, he hasn't made any prints from his 4-year old iPhone but he's pretty sure he would not be happy with them if he did. So, by that lupey logic, next time he is given a new camera to review, he should instead obtain a 2 generation older model of the same camera and just paste and copy his impressions of that camera into his review of the new camera.
STUPID. IGNORANT. UN-INFORMED.
There. I wrote it. Now I can go back and take another rest.
And, PS (to Mike) re: pictures made with the iPhone are "perfectly adequate for taking pictures to be viewed on...itself. And for emailing and texting.". Actually sir, in my experience, my iPhone pictures are more than perfectly adequate to viewed on gallery walls, printed to 24x24 inches and larger. Maybe you need to get out more and see what's going in the world of photography.
