    iPhone 7/8 plus or new X as a 35mm negative film scanner

    I know it is an odd question but I thought that there must be some analogue enthusiasts in here! Scanning 35mm negatives with a DSLR is a viable strategy for a high resolution and optimal way to make negatives into positives and digital files. I wonder whether or not an iPhone with dual lens...

    iPhone 8 Plus horrible lens flare and reflections

    Which new iPhone for photographer?

    Time to upgrade my wireless plan iPhone 5, which is still usable but the camera sucks and it's not water resistant. As I use it more and with various camera control apps from Canon and third parties, and also for the upcoming minimalist genre of smart phone photography, the 7 and the 7 Plus are...
