This is a photo taken on my 2 year old Samsung Galaxy Note 4.

Click on the pic and it goes to Flickr. Click on the pic again to zoom into the photo.

This is the detail you get on a standard cell phone? As much as I hate what we are doing to our planet this is pretty amazing tech.

I agree Brendan. It's a great way of keeping records of what you have done and it's available to all of us. We just need to learn the art of photography and try and see what the lense sees before we press the shutter

I owned an o2 x1, about 16 years or more ago, VGA camera, small memory, no ram to speak of... loved that phone. Now using a galaxy a7, three cameras on the back, one on the front, the phone itself is way more powerful than my first PC back in the mid to late 90s.

At a glance, the images look ok, but close up, the small sensor size makes so much noise, looses so much fine details, specially in shadow areas, and next to my 7 or 8 year old fuji x-e2, the images look so poor, though the fuji has the special x-trans sensor.

Trouble with mobile phones and their cameras, the sensor is so tiny, just a few MM in diameter, compared to the CMOS sensor on mirrorless and consumer DSLRs, which handles digital noise far better, but camera phone photography is evolving but i am not really sure the tech is up to par with even fairly competitively priced cameras.

That being said, the phones are a god send, while i can link both my fujis and my canon m5 to my phone via wifi for remote tethering, and also transfer images to the phone, i love how accessible it has made photography. I also hate how accessible it has made photography, one huge gripe is the silly snapchat style filters, you know the ones, dog ears, dog noses and alien chins and skin so smooth it blurs the whole image in a smudgy sickly looking haze! And sadly it is not a phase likely to go away any time soon.

I do not plan on ditching traditional (if digital can be considered traditional yet) cameras just yet, but i would not be without my mobile!
