Just a quick note from me about a thing I like about the Samsung S4 camera.
It focuses really close, approx. 3 - 4 inches.
I just hate the way you use a camera phone, extending your arm(s) out, it is the worse for stability.
The last time I sent photos by my cell phone it took 9 days for them to travel 150 miles. I could have shot film, got it developed, and sent the pix snail mail and got them there faster. Plus I could have sent 34 more, and at far better resolution.
I sent a photo of a friend and got asked what the purple flower was. I figure the biggest image enhancement I could do to my phone is a center punch in the middle of the lens.
I think it's rather interesting in several ways that the images in this thread are so far as good and some much better than the images in this thread: https://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/topic/1225228
Is it that the Canon is crap or that Cell Phones are that good?
