What I have achieved using a smartphone camera

aKlevans · Nov 18, 2017

Hey guys,
I just wanted to share the pictures I have managed to take using a cellphone.
I am using a samsung s8 and editing using the snapseed app.

Thanks for looking!

Dang dude! That sucks.
I've heard the iPhone 8 camera is real good, so I expect you will take great photos!

My S7 was pretty good but this G6 is no bueno.

S7 in Pro Mode with no post processing.

Very nice. I wish I could do that with my Cannon DSLR, much less my cell cam..

I might be getting a Dji Osmo Mobile and a macro and wide angle lens. Going to start doing more videos graphy. I have gotten out of it for awhile but I know some people to get good deals

The only issue with using the clip-on macro lens is that they only work when the subject is really close to the glass. You can't zoom in to other corals that are farther back in the tank.

It’s not a clip on one. I’m going to go with a high quality zeiss or similar. Also planning on selling my Sony a6000 because my 8 is higher quality now anyway and I don’t use it much now
