I wouldn't use a phone with less than a 4-inch screen anymore.
Using iPads as cameras, for example, is like taking pictures with a cafeteria tray.
Yes, we are a producer of cameras, but we understand that at the end of the day, you have to make photos in software. A lot of companies focus on the camera side, and a lot are on the software side. There's a chasm between the two.
I don't use a crap camera, I don't eat junk, and I'm not going to a dance where the boys are bores
All my films are shot on hand-held cameras. These cameras took five years to build and had to be light enough to be carried.
I've tried plenty of telephones. I tried to get into the Samsung Galaxy and the Blackberry, but the iPhone is just too easy to use. The camera takes clear pictures and the phone itself looks great. Like all Apple products, it kind of just makes sense.
I like having the digital camera on my smart phone, but I also like having a dedicated camera for when I want to take real pictures.
Among other things, I use a Samsung mobile phone, a very bad quality video camera, and an old Olympus with extremely bad Sigma lenses.
What could a smartphone do for me that would make people go out and buy another one?
I don't use the front-facing camera because the quality of selfies isn't as good.
The advantage of the Genesis is that it's a rock-solid camera, made by a company with an enormous history and a huge support base. Plus, it's very good in low light using all the Panavision lenses. The downside is that you're recording on tape.
For me, the brand of the camera is not the most important thing. I think you can take good pictures with the camera on your phone.
No photographer is as good as the simplest camera.
I have done my best. I saw a fatal flaw in the camera industry. We did our best to address it.
I can't remember exactly how old I was when my parents gave me my first camera, but it was a Canon, and I was certainly far too young to have such a good camera.
You know why I don't like that camera? Because it prevents me from seeing you!
I really believe you'll get a music video one of these days that I shot with an iPad because it's that consistent and that good. It's HD.
I can't stress enough how unimportant the camera really is. Any brand of camera will do. For 95% of my shots, the lowest end DSLR will be just fine.
Camera companies, like traditional phone manufacturers, dismissed the iPhone as a toy when it launched in 2007. Nokia thought that the iPhone used inferior technology; the camera makers thought that it took lousy pictures. Neither thought that they had anything to worry about.
