This is going to be my life from now on, after about 20 goes trying to figure out the captcha from my pc to post and getting none right ive given up. Just gonna have to do phone photos.
iPhone’s silvertone just slaps 99% of the time.
>>4488914just shoot m43 - it's like phone
My phone photos mog half of /rpt/
>>4484547>not naming the thread /pp/Missed opportunity
>>4489463I really wish I had brought my camera there. It would have been worth the hassle.
>>4489580I did have a camera with me, but also forgot to recharge the battery AND bring the spare battery with me...
>>4489784Little did you know, even if you’d taken charged batteries, you left the SD card at home…
this is prolly one of my best phone pics ever
>>4490938retard

One of the best shots I've taken. Didn't have any proper cameras, but I couldn't have asked for a better shot
>>4496156Another shot I place at the same rank. Wish I shot this one in RAW but I think its fine
>>4496157Got caught in the rain
>>4496158One more for now.Shooting in RAW is really the way to go for phone cameras. The sensors are fairly capable on newer models. These were with samsung s23 ultra. Shooting in normal mode the photos are dogshit 99% of the time
>>4496159you edit on your phone?
>>4496164Yeah. Lightroom on mobile is free to use. Unfortunately editing RAW photos became a paid feature very recently.
>>4496159From yesterday's walk
>>4496225nicephone brand?
>>4496730Samsung s23 ultra. You gotta shoot in RAW. Even when you turn as much post processing off as you can, the jpegs still suck
yesterday
>>4497552Even if I turn off all the HDR & post processing options in the menu, it still edits the photos. They get blurry and look like shit, and the worst part is when my phone's a little slow I can SEE it happening - for 1/2 second the photo is perfect and then it gets filtered and smoothed to death.
I like the light on this piglet pic. Also pretty cute.
Is there any app that's comparable to Halide? I'm tired of fucking subscriptions
>>4497985The cameras on Galaxy phones always get hyped to hell and back before release and in reviews but they seem to fall a bit short when you actually try taking pictures yourself. I've also got an S23U as well as an X90 Pro+ and I was surprised how hard the chink phone shitted on the Galaxy in RAW. Way better dynamic range, finer noise pattern, better colors and details were somehow sharper even though effective resolution is 12MP for both. Even RAWs out of my Pixel 6 Pro looked way better than what my Galaxy could produce. 200MP is a gimmick and I hate that chink OEMs are moving towards this hardware for their main cameras.
>>4499170nope. polarr honestly used to be quite excellent for phone editing but now literally every important feature is paywalled. you have to get rawtherapee or darktable and edit your phone photos on pc. the world is gay.

one of my favourite phone pics i've ever taken. it was beautiful here and it was a great night.
My Nazi car.
>>4500368This is pleasant. What time did you take this? Looks like 5am or something turbo early.
Is there a thread where people post their unedited photos? I'd like to practice my editing skill in Photoshop and get some feedback
>>4500974RAW threads. Nobody really engages in them because there's no way to make it about gear.Last couple that people tried to start died pretty quick but ymmv
>>4500974like this for example >>4484548I have no idea what am I doing
>>4500975I'll try to bake one, I guess. If no-one's editing anything for fun, do people post their clean pictures at least?
Alot of these photos are good. Wtf i though /p/ said phone cameras are unusable.
>>4500977wdym by clean?>>4501304The only faggots saying that are using shitty 1/2.8" phones from 2012, or are niggers that need to affirm their $6000 in camera gear isn't made obsolete in certain cases by a $400 phone.Phone cameras have their place. I'd still prefer a digishit with an actual optical zoom unless I was already content with 24-28mm focal lengths, but lots of things are done fine by a phone camera.
>>4501304They all look really smeary and plasticIts the same aesthetic as “wildlife photographers” who always shoot at iso 12800, use AI NR+Sharpening to fix it, and then say full frame and micro four thirds look the samePhone cameras are really only good for closeups in dimly lit areas because then the AI HDR actually does something uniquely useful in combination with the deep focus of a wide angle f32 equivalent lens. Granted, the real resolution of a 200mp phone is more like 8mp because of quad bayer alternating readout hdr shit. That should be a familiar general concept however. Mp is only a resolution figure by proxy when talking foveon or high end film scans - the real resolution of a 24mp bayer camera is closer to 16mp
anyone else obsessed with store fronts at night?
>>4501315>phone is more like 8mpthey are more like 5-6mp, they start looking like shit b4 even reaching 70% peep
>>4501310phones are unusable for most use cases and 100% if you want to have more than 5mp of res>an actual optical zoomactually existed in cam-phones hybrids
>>4501304You should know by now /p/ is always wrong as its all midwit takes.
>>4501387Correct. Your post is wrong and a midwit take.

>>4501591thanks bro. yours looks great. obviously i'm a sucker for big shadows.
>>4501500Post random snapshit of a business mascot and the first thing that pops into this anon's head is "furry". I think that says more about you than me anon.

>>4501317I barely go outside now, let along at night. Still, I love how warm and inviting that interior looks.It's relatable in that I am permanently excluded from that feeling of warmth and belonging in my life. The wet road just adds to it.
>>4501628Absolute art.
>>4501304/p/ thinks smartphones still have tiny 1/2.5"-1/3" sensors. At this point, smartphones rival p&s cameras and come pretty close to DSLRs in some areas if we're talking just global properties. Nowadays you don't even need portrait mode on some phones when using the telephoto because the hardware has gotten to a point where it's capable of authentic bokeh without any software. Sensors have gotten so big across the board that shooting in RAW isn't a total waste of time. Phone displays and ISPs have gotten so good that you can take photos in real HDR and not HDR compressed down to SDR that you can then view on your phone in real HDR because 99% of phones come with 1000 nit+ OLEDs. You can then upload said photo almost anywhere and shit just werks on any compatible display. Obviously all these photos kind of fall apart when you zoom in, even in RAW, but that completely misses the point of taking pictures on a phone.
>>4502462>Obviously all these photos kind of fall apart when you zoom inActually you ironically get much better zoom on a phone because for a FF camera to keep its size down it will have to have a small wide angle prime so theyre with not zooming at all lol
>>4502464By zoom I mean cropping in. Unfortunately these high resolution sensors are a meme because they technically aren't even designed to output at full resolution due to binning being done at a hardware level. Demosaicing algorithms are a thing but they vary wildly on an OEM basis, so one phone might take really good 50MP pictures but another might take really shit 50MP pictures that look like a simple upscale, which is a pretty significant amount of them. Samsung originally had 108MP sensors that would bin down to 27MP and details held up pretty well even after cropping in but OEMs dropped them in favor of bigger, lower resolution sensors that bin down to 12MP. Some newer phones support 24MP/25MP output with 48MP/50MP sensors, but every time I look at samples they don't look like real 24MP/25MP at all so I suspect there's some amount of software trickery going on to get that number.
>>4502464Todays phone photos look exactly like AI generated images. They are defacto worthless, and will never be photos with certainty. This is because they use AI to basically remake the photo to fool people like you. Imagine a film camera that contains tiny airbrushing robots meant to make 800 iso 35mm look like 50 speed 6x7 as long as you don’t pay attention or look too closely. Your snapshit collection would just look like airbrushed photos and be written off as worthless for being possibly fake in every way. Imagine if this happened in the 50s or something. Never ever ever would anything people shot on such a device even be considered as proof something happened. It would all look airbrushed. Full control of truth would be ceded to the state and the media mafia. A lot of civil rights and government accountability shit never would have happened and the vietnam war would be an un-debunkable american victory hard fought with nobility and honor, and minimal civilian casualties. The iPhone 5 somehow had a better camera than the iPhone 16. Because its photos actually looked like photos.
>>4502539>meant to make 800 iso 35mm look like 50 speed 6x7 as long as you don’t pay attention or look too closelyNormies don't look too closely, anon. They're sharing photos on social media and sending them in messaging apps where the image gets compressed to shit anyway, and even if they did look closely they wouldn't know it looks bad because they don't have an actual camera to compare it to.
>>4502548>in my mind the goyim are unimportant people doing unimportant things, so lets make their shit useless and meme them into buying increasingly fake phone cameras with huge profit margins. they were never going to be important anyways. not anymore, that is!Don’t think like this.
>>4502539>Todays phone photos look exactly like AI generated images. They are defacto worthless, and will never be photos with certainty. This is because they use AI to basically remake the photo to fool people like you.>t.unc that hasnt used a phone camera in 18 yearslol retard
>>4502626They do retard>inb4 NUH UH ONLY IF YOU PIXEL PEEP (DOING THAT IS BAD BTW)Kek phonefags have to literally beg people not to notice their photo is AI just like AI “art” fags do>no no no bro dont zoom in youre missing the point bros its about what it makes you feel at a glance bro stop zooming in and noticing its AI noooo
>>4502627Based seething out of touch boomer schizo
>>4502651>no bro dont notice its ai bro dont zoom in bro ill call you unc its cringe bro its so yesterday bro youre seething bro only the leftards hate ai bro dont zoom in please bro stop im begging you stop zooming in and noticing my pictures are ai generated im going to cry stopthe zooming in will continueif peeps cant pixel peep your pic its aicry moar
>please use a real camera for natural pho-ACK
>>4502697> the 850 is still more crisp than the other three
me being new at /p/ posting my mobile shot in phone photo general
>>4502720Well done anon, that's a fine snapshit. Wipe your fucking lens though that light smearing is intense.
>>4502697Which one is better? I can't tell. Nikon is more sharp it seems
>>4502734Its a test chart rendered as a jpeg with slightly tweaked adobe camera raw settings, it doesnt really matter what it shows unless you use ACRCapture one renders fuji files as less blurry jpegs but brings back moire, for examplehttps://www.captureone.com/blog/fuji-x-trans-sensor-excels-in-capture-one-7
Phonegods stay winning.
>>4502697lmao ive never seen this on my iphone
>>4502732hmmmm, now that you mentioned that.I'll keep that in mind.Also another shot, with my Xiaomi 10t pro, maybe I should get a 12T pro or that crazy Ultra
Damn, you guys tried No Fusion app on iOS? It removes all the sharpening shittiness with iPhone photos and actually makes it look like a real camera. These were both taken with the 15 Pro.
>>4503249Reading up on it, it takes a RAW photo and converts it in the app to a HEIF to avoid the normal iPhone camera processing.
>>4502531>Samsung originally had 108MP sensors that would bin down to 27MP and details held up pretty wellFucking no. Not at all. You don't understand this shit anon.48MP = 12MP108MP = 12MPYou can't "bin" 108MP to 27MP. These 108MP sensors are simply extra photosites behind a much lower res filter. The filter determines the resolution.A 24MP full frame bayer camera only has 6000 red, 12000 green, and 6000 blue samples. A 24MP sensor can't capture signal with 24MP detail. In theory you can maybe hope for 1/4 of the advertised resolution. (nyquist, on both axis) but in reality 4x res isn't enough in all cases. This is where aliasing and moire come from.Smartphones with meme sensors are their 100% full resolution but are fundamentally gimped because their color filter is at a much lower resolution. Instead of red green and blue photosites, you have CHUNKS of red green and blue at either 4x (48MP) or 9x (108MP) resulting in an effectively binned equivalent to 12MP bayer. This 12MP bayer is already far from an ideal. These phones are binning to accomplish what is unacceptable resolution that is miles behind what film was capable of.Honest 16MP phone cameras are alright, limited by their lens with vignetting and corner sharpness loss but are genuinely okay hardware.Anything 48MP or 108MP is a red flag reliant on binning bullshit to deliver AI sloppified falsifified fake photos. If the hardware and firmware is configured to actually properly bin the 3x3 chunks into binned 1x1 binned bayer, then that's probably a good 12MP phone sensor but they all try to falsify data and deliver garbage at inflated resolutions that are 100% not possible or backed by anything but slop filtering.A 108MP phone sensor (in theory alone assuming a PERFECT lens) can only deliver maybe a good 6MP or 3MP depending on subject. A genuinely good 3MP is good for most things. Binning is good, phone scam sensors are not.
>>4503249Right looks more like a real photo but isn't good. Left is an eyesore.I don't buy apple products because Steve Jobs is a kike, but last I heard the Halide app offered real RAW without the post-processing and gave you raw sensor readout (with all the noise) and if your app does the same that's fine. If it is doing anything to "make it look like a real camera" however, then it is a scam. Just fuck off and give the RAW. If your app can't do that, it's trash. Apple wants to force post-processing with their fake pro-raw bullshit but some older iPhones could output real genuine noisy RAWs and those were fit for proper photography.
>>4503255>You can't "bin" 108MP to 27MP. You can if you're binning pixels 2x2, which was how the original 108MP sensors did it. Nowadays, yes, they all just bin down to 12MP.
>>4503271You only bin pixels in a 2x2 chunk if it's quad bayer, effectively giving you binned quarter resolution but still bayer.What Samshit ever had a quad bayer 108MP?All the ones I know about are the nonacell 3x3 bayer shit.https://petapixel.com/2020/02/13/samsung-reveals-the-tech-behind-its-new-108mp-nonacell-image-sensor/Binning isn't some magic cure-all or benefit in general. It's more or less copium. Sony used it in a full frame camera for 48MP binned to 12MP, but it turned out to be mostly worthless. The real use case for that camera was having a natively low res sensor so it could just output less-processed video and a real 12MP sensor probably would have performed better, but binning is nice for video and eliminating hot pixels. Hot pixels aside binning is said to reduce noise but what they omit from advertising is the photosites binned are all much smaller and are noisier than larger sites so there's really no benefit in dynamic range or noise despite what advertisers say.Phones have a really bad time with hot pixels in particular so binning is decent but all the AI ensloppification they try to force during the process is atrocious.
