Well to a point. Cell phone sensors genuinely do suck balls

my iphone's cameras are okay. but my canon r5 blows it out of the water in every way when I'm not feeling too lazy to take it out.

phone sensors do suck but the image processing going on in there is insane these days and lets you get way better photos than you should be able to

it's literally just a tube. there is nothing to be poo poo about it. if it has the right mounts on each end and they are parallel with each other it gets 100%

Achmed Jones posted:

unless the mechanism is hard to get on/off the body, or the same for the lens, or it wobbles, or the electrical connection bridging the pieces is faulty, or

yeah I have some cheap tubes but the mounting hardware is cheap and nasty. the canon gear will have much better materials and tolerances

yeah you're right, the full frame equivalent people always talk about doesn't really consider the lens distortion. so when they say a good portrait lens is ~80mm on full frame, and recommend a ~50mm lens for a crop sensor, it's not going to give you the same kind of image that is most flattering for portraits.

It seems like every time I see a comparison shot between crop 50 and full frame 85 I can't tell the difference in the way faces are rendered. Mostly the difference is in the depth of field.

https://petapixel.com/2016/07/28/full-frame-vs-crop-sensor-better-portraits/

I have a pentax 67 I really need to take out more often, but the portraits I've taken at 105mm on that thing have a magical quality to them.

a new kind of camera with a digital sensor etc but when you hit click the sensor flips out of the way like a mirror in an SLR and exposes some real film

and the digital display etc shows a sort of exposure simulation for the film stock and iso so you can tell just what it might look like before you hit “commit”

that overly expensive super8 camera kodak showed off years ago has a similar concept

how does over/under exposure work in film?

it occurred to me that i have always had a digital sensor in-the-loop for the entire time i've been learning about photography (even real film got scanned by a negative reader with some pretty obvious sensitivity/noise issues when i worked in a drugstore photolab). i assume that film still has some kind of limiting factor and there can't be an image with 200 stops of dynamic range or whatever, but i have no idea what it looks like

in my experience I can over expose portra 400 a ton and it still looks good when scanned
