This is an excellent video review by Peter McKinnon. I really like his studio shot comparison between his Canon mirrorless camera and the iPhone 14 Pro. https:

I don’t think it’s any surprise that a smartphone can capture a decent image in perfect lighting conditions. That’s been the case for a while. You’ll notice though that all pro photographers still reach for their real camera when the quality of the pictures matter.

  For all the people that complain about the people who say that their iPhone is superior to DSLR and Mirrorless cameras, I’ve never actually seen anyone seriously say that. Everyone should know that the best camera you have is the one with you. The iPhone enables this. Are there really people out there saying they’re going to shoot a wedding or something with an iPhone and mean it? Sounds more like photographers compensating.

    > Everyone should know that the best camera you have is the one with you. Not really. There's not really any point taking a smartphone camera out of your pocket at an airshow, or at a zoo, to take a photo of the Moon or a myriad of other scenarios where the lens is the dominant factor. Sometimes the best choice is not to take the shot.

      That a stupid argument, and one that misses the point completely. If you want or need to take a photo, your massive camera setup sitting at home does you no good. The camera sitting in your pocket anyways, however, does.

        Well there is a third way: bring the massive camera setup with you where you’re going. ;)

        Lots of places where that infeasible.

        Lots more where it is feasible. :) But sure, if you can’t use a big camera, or don’t want to, use your phone. It’s no skin off my back. Just wanted to point out that “phone” vs. “no camera at all because your big one is at home” is a false dichotomy.
