[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 333303, member: 9240"] As we continue to derail and rerail this thread, I do believe that there are photographers (and by that I mean "someone with a camera taking pictures") who are better off using their camera phones because they eliminate many of the variables utilized by photographers (and by that I mean "someone who understands the principles of composition, exposure and processing") when creating photographs. You can put a great camera in the hands of someone who doesn't know what they're doing and it's going to be ugly. But that same person can take a properly exposed snapshot of themselves with an iPhone, run it through an Instagram filter and have the world post a thousand [I]Likes[/I] in an afternoon. Anyone can take a decent picture with a camera phone. But a photographer can take a decent picture with anything. [/QUOTE]
