Reflection in the rain by ACJC.S

Shot with iPhone 15 Pro Max.

35mp ProRAW Max 74.6mb file with the 1.2x (28mm) cropped mode, post-processed externally on iMac with 3rd-party software.

It started to rain, while seeking shelter noticed the temple’s reflection on the wet floor, hence the shot.

I do wonder if the moving rain streaks affected the resolution somewhat during the iPhone’s computational process merging multiple frames? This shot lacks a bit of acuity compared to the one uploaded previously which was shot before the downpour.

I had my Olympus E-M1 Mkii with the 12-100mm f4 IS Pro attached but was not even bothered to take it out of my camera bag for the shot. This m4/3 setup while not heavy is still 1,135g compared to my phone at a mere 221g.

Some photographers like to claim that the experience shooting with system cameras is much more satisfying than handling a smartphone but this smacks of inflexibility IMO, being fixated with the old ways and proverbial “stick in the mud”. “The handling is always dubious at best and there is the ever-present risk of dropping it while taking photos.” Sounds all too similar? This is just like people who expressed reservations about EVF vs OVF when mirrorless cameras came along or worse still the irrational fear that IBIS can result in the sensor getting dislodged within the camera. Flat-earthers exist amongst photographers!

People with the irrational fear of dropping the phone, why barricade our own minds with such false fears instead of thinking about solutions? They really need to “get a grip”, literally. These days there are cheap magnetic grips readily available, just slap one on and sling a wrist-strap to your phone casing and it handles just like a camera. If ergonomics can affect the quality of your photos, you have more fundamental issues than your gear.

The freedom of shooting with a smartphone is quite liberating as you don’t have to bother with lugging heavy gear and hassle of changing lenses. I bought the new SmallRig quick release phone rig and handles but I liked the simplicity of just a wrist-strap and magnetic grip.

These days, pointing a big ass camera attached with a big ass lens in the street can intimidate people, nobody bats an eyelid when it’s a smartphone however. In fact, some touristy places where photography is prohibited, the guards can be all over you as soon as you take out your system camera but will not bat an eyelid with smartphones as everyone does it. It could be that the man in the street still thinks that smartphones take lousy photographs and that makes smartphones stealthy!
