Hopefully they'll be trained enough to build shutter mechanisms that doesn't splatter excess lubricant onto the sensor.

That's be nice.

Placed 70^th in the challenge. tragically, i bagged the focus right between the two birds. because of that the pic won't win any awards, but it's still an interesting image, with lots of movement, i think.

Placed 43^rd in the challenge.

But that's the problem. DPR aren't reviewing the likes of Leica M.

A few points:

- pixel count has nothing to do with fidelity (this is one of the first lessons you learn once using larger sensor cameras, or older compacts with 3-5mp)
- it's great that many are...

This is dpreview, a place I've been shamelessly addicted to for about 7 years. I read and comment on any subject that interests me. Currently I'm interested in how the phone photography scene may...

marike6, that argument is so old it's died of boredom.

Like GeorgeZ says, can we have some feedback why dpreview have the hardest time getting hold of cameras? Even amateur review sites get complimentary review copies...

The 6D was first previewed 6 months ago. It is one of the most significant cameras of the last few years.

We're still waiting for the review.

Not complaining, just reflecting what many in the...

I read this a lot that phone-photography scenesters come back at critics with strange accusations that the critics somehow feel "threatened", that they should "deal with it".

Some of us want to...

Again, this tired old argument that in film days people also manipulated photos, and again bringing up the tired old name of Ansel Adams.

Reality Check: what percentage of all photographers...

Like I said above, the problem isn't the phone, the problem is the scene self-congratulating itself to oblivion.

Critical thinking improves art, the phone photography scene could seriously do...

The point is it's not Mobile Photography, it's Phone Photography.

Cameras have always been mobile. A Ricoh R4 is 7 years old, is more 'mobile' than a phone, is much more flexible and delivers...

mutual-backscratching articles promoting substandard work isn't interesting for anyone else.

sarcastic responses from the 'artist' doesn't help anyone.

my suggestion for you to make better...

First of all, a Leica M with a lens isn't that small.  Secondly, this part of the debate has nothing to do with IQ, but with handling.Reading helps:

Good point! You could say the same about the size of guitars, pianos, paintbrushes, fencing sticks and tennis racquets!Oh wait...The lesson is: some tools can be made smaller without detriment to...

Well said.

I like that: a poor craftsman credits his tools.Not completely accurate, tho' - it's no accident most pros and working artists use large-sensor cameras with interchangeable lenses.

Don't take it too heart, it's just that indoor cat photos are a bit of a meme in themselves, especially when used in an attempt to prove a point of IQ, and even more especially when the poster...

Good article, tho' this is opinion, not fact:

"The iPhone has transformed photography with its versatile ecosystem of photo editing and sharing apps and high-quality camera components."

But you...
