Smartphones (Page 3): If I couldn't get stunning 8x10's from my 24mp 7100 I'd give up taking pictures.

Yes, I have a Nikon D3300 24.2 MP camera, although I have not yet enlarged any photos to 8x10 to see how they look, I am sure they would be stunning.

Just for grins I took many landscape pictures with both my D810 and my Galaxy 6 when I was in Yellowstone/Tetons this Fall. Sadly, my son likes one from the Galaxy better than the 50+ from the "real" camera. Still working in LR to duplicate the colors I see on the Galaxy...sigh. Yep...I am a relatively new at all of this. Wildlife is another matter all together...I had no less than 5 cell phone cameras asked to take a picture of my playback screen of a magnificent Bull Moose in dusk lighting.... I will keep and use both. Love this forum and all that I have learned!

I have a 8mp camera Nexus 5 smartphone and I took some landscape images with my phone, then had 2 of them enlarged to 8x10 prints, I was quite impressed with the image quality. Now they offer much higher mp in the newer smartphones, so any enlargements should even be more impressive.

The phone cameras are excellent for what they are.

I already have a smartphone with a very good camera. My next purchase will be a lens from B&H. For my DSLR.

I remember the days when photographers said digital photography would never be accepted. I remember the days when cable TV was poo-pooed. My grandparents told me how people rejected the automobile, claiming horses were so much more reliable. Times change. Technology improves. I love my Nikon but I also love the versatility and image quality of my smartphone! Each has its limitations but each also has its advantages!

I have enlarged photos from my 8mpx iPhone larger than that, and they look fine. >Alan

I lived in Maine in the 1970s. I worked for an advertising agency, and one of the less imaginative partners maintained that
ATMs were a fad that would never catch on. "Who would want to go to a machine, when they could go to the bank and deal with a live person?"
