Even for amateurs, with basic knowledge on how to go about things on a dslr, they'll click better pictures with a dslr than an iphone. It's different when a professional compares the cameras, he knows how to get beautiful shots, taking iphone pictures to the next level. Basic users can click pictures in both, and Dslr will come out on top. Edge detection is sometimes bad on the iphone, but it's still good, for people who don't want a dslr.
Also if you get a 70-200 It'll destroy an iphone, with the zoom and blur, not to forget night capabilities. And the eye detection tracking in videos, iphone needs some catching to do, before it bumps it price to 5000 dollars in the near future😂
5/5. It’s pretty easy if you first look at the background’s detail, then look at the color contrast differences. The iPhone tends to sort of blend colors together more while the DX2 is very distinctive.
iPhone has more detail in both the highlights (in the water and in the rushes in right background) and shadows (guy's hair and jacket). Phone has more dynamic range in this scene. Apart from the 2 extra ducks closer to the camera in the 1DX shot, I don't see much difference between the two.
For the first one the focal plane didnt make much sense. Its basically saying Matti is a person so he should be in focus and everything else shouldnt be but there really isnt a transition. On the other hand if you dont know about focal planes it does a great job and would trick pretty much anyone that isnt really a photographer. IMO that is a win since for the most part they arent marketing this towards professional photographers and if you just need some quick shots but dont want to bring a full camera it will be good enough.
David Penner agreed. The fact that even a seasoned photographer needs more than and half second to tell is amazing. For 99 percent though it’s almost indistinguishable. In 5 years it will be exponentially more difficult.
The photos you take on iPhones are processed instantly after capturing. Whereas DSLRs require some sort of processing to truly show it's potential. When you're comparing raw/unedited images - Yes, the processed iPhone photo looks comparable to the raw DSLR photo.
The most obvious differences you can see are: -iPhone's HDR in backgrounds is better compared to the way he edited the DSLR images. -Individual hairs that are only visible in the DSLR images and other small errors the iPhone does with the blur.
Some people in the comment section are saying “you don’t need to pay hundreds of dollars for a photographer anymore” But in fact you don’t pay a photographer only for his gears but also his knowledge and expertise when it comes to creating a great photography There is so much more to photography than just the gears Photography is a discipline that requires learning.
@@philadams9254 There's no technical reason it can't be done. It's just multiple cameras focused on foreground, mid and background. Not unlike the Matrix scene with the world stopping and camera 'rotating' around Neo and Mr Smith. With enough cameras, you can have perfect focus every time, because every point of focus is taken by one of the lenses :)
@@alexsem490 Is it multiple cameras? I'm all but certain it's (or at least was in the first couple of generations) a function of the massive depth of field of small sensors. If you rotate the camera to the side of the image in Focos (yes, Focos can do that, it's similar to the individual slices of an MRI), you can see many many more layers than just 2 or 3
@@alexsem490 I don't think your multiple camera idea would work, to get a shallow DoF you'd need so many huge lenses that the perspective would shift depending on which sensor you decided to take the footage from. The iPhone builds a depth map from images taken from separate cameras, which allows the fake bokeh to be applied in the correct places (well, as best it can). Samsung phones actually do have a shallow DoF simulation mode for video. The example I saw was comically bad, but give it a few years and you'll be doing smooth focus pulls in post :)
@@alexsem490 Nope, the magic is having one good small camera which is near focus for all distances and then depth map computed from one or more additional sensors and lots of processing to compute how the image would look if it had real bokeh. The major problem with this is that the depth sensors are not accurate enough so lots of guessing needs to be done. As a result it will look good for some subjects, and very poor for some other subjects. With enough experience you can figure out the situations the software handles badly and you just don't shoot in those conditions. The another problem is that the dynamic range is not high enough to blur a single overexposed pixel to much larger out of focus disc (bokeh) with correct intensity. That can be worked around with underexposure as long as the sensor noise is low enough.

Exactly. It’s very obvious as the iPhone messes up the blur at the edges of very sharp objects. The maple leaf, the wispy hairs get nuked by the iPhone bokeh. Very impressive in what the iPhone can do, but not quite there vs real optical bokeh.

@@bigggasss9429 Not sure about DSLR, but mirrorless is because there is exponentially more image data captured in an A7RIV than through an iPhone. No contest. If you're just shooting JPGs, you should probably just buy an iPhone.
This is the best review on RUclips i'v found yet about iphone 11 photography! The best thing is you color graded the photo to make both look the same. Perfect!
Adrian Symons Portrait mode by default tends to add a little more blur than you’d traditionally expect from the photo, which is why it’s always good to tweak the “aperture” when you edit the photo in the photos app
lepo of-course it’s artificial. The digital pixelization does not give off a natural feel like an eye would give. Dslr is closest thing to your look that you see in the mirror. A natural you.
Yes, and the effect can’t be applied to RAW, and most serious photogs need RAW. Also, the transitions/fall off from a subject is often still fake looking, because a computational blur essentially smears the pixels, making it look like the edges of the face are melting.
@@ncisgreat Of course you can. The Pixel has the same issue as the iPhone. Don't get me wrong, the software on both devices has definitely gotten a lot better over the years but they're still bad at rendering super fine edges.
@@ncisgreat I have seen a few comparisons and i agree with you when it comes to Pixel being better at rendering fine edges than the iPhone but that doesn't change the fact that it's still a problem that exists within the computational photography realm. It doesn't matter if it's an iPhone, Pixel, Samsung, etc...
Its not a matter of how good a picture looks on a small screen or small picture to begin with. My old rebel t3i takes amazing looking photos and so does my 5d mark iv. The difference starts to get noticeable when you start blowing them up. For most small prints they will be fine, bigger prints you start to see some quality issues.
I love when you make these kind of videos. I personally can always tell the difference between the 2. mainly because the blur on the iPhone is always over processed. Your videos inspired me to make my own RUclips Chanel and purchase a mirrorless camera (Lumix G85) and start using some of your color grading techniques for my videos. I just posted my first scene of a short film im working on. can't wait till im as skilled as you are.
Got all of them right. iPhone was more contrasty and "fake" looking, with worse depth of field, background was also better with pro cam. For example on 2:12 photo you can see individual hair on the right image, while iPhone considered it a background in on the left image; also at 1:43 with leaf, you can see pointing finger on the left being blurry. Difference is pretty clear, but not "7500$, quadruple the size, setting up and learning" clear, but you can distinguish the two.
I got them all but it was very tough and I was almost guessing for some. As a DLSR user and large format printing company, I can vouch for the quality. My iPhone promax does way more than I ever thought a phone could do. I actually bought the phone strictly for the camera. Oh, I also bought that focos app as soon as you mentioned it..great video and totally unbiased.
They are similar in everyday situations, but try to shoot at night, or wildlife or anything that requires extreme shutter speed changes or flexible focal length and aperture. Plus, lens distortion is a big problem with phone cameras. Try taking a selfie or shooting a portrait with a phone vs Dsrl and see where your face looks better. Also, if we were to see the raw images on both the Iphone and Dsrl the difference would be much higher. Overall an Iphone camera would do the job for most uick situations, but it certainly can't replace a Dsrl.
I got 5 out of 5 right... when you know how the “shallow depth the field” of an iPhone looks like it’s fairly simple... but it’s incredible what the iPhone camera become!!! Love your style matti 🔥🔥🔥
@@Pizzatime650 that is the problem unfortunately. Non of the major camera players not putting enough thoughts into software. Sony are the only company has done some work in computation. Example eye detection. Now they are planing to put this technology in Sony phones. So at this rate cameras will be only needed in sport and wild life and may be just maybe in weddings
@@frankwalders I am not talking about software like lightroom or Photoshop. I am talking about computation built in with the cameras to autofocus, ( it is software vthat drives servo motors of the camera ect ) camera AI I am taking about. On the video he goes it is the computation. Software is big part of any product. Your washin,g machine has software in. Your tv, your car ....you don't have a clue ....software does not mean something that works on a computer
@@frankwalders btw you had me laughing when you referring software to something that on a computer hahahaha .... your phone has software which help to take amazing pictures. It is artificial intelligence Or AI
I like that this tech will actually force mobile “photographers” to learn how to take a good pic and then realize that hardware is in a lot of ways the least important part of taking a good pic.
P. Peter R welllll my post actually was referring to people who are more concerned with specs than actual output. The most advanced camera in the world will take bad pictures if the user doesn’t know how to use it.
In my experience is not true. I was using samsung S8 and iPhone 10, but when I bought a standalone camera I could see a big difference right away and suddenly people started saying compliments about my pictures. Below a quick comparison ibb.co/8KnP3KL ibb.co/7VPLKmD Huge difference in colors and dynamic range, especially if you shoot photos towards the sun
SleptOn I follow ya. My friend has a Pixel 3a and it has really provoked an interest in photography for him. He wants to know what to do to get into photography but doesn’t have much money right now. I told him he can learn a lot from his phone and still get rewarding images. Perspective is a big piece of good photos and there is a lot of color editing that can be done on a phone too. Showing up to a shoot with just a phone won’t be ideal but he can prep for when he can afford a nicer camera.
@@PabloB888 IDK man, that's what I've got with a Note8 which is similar to S8. ibb.co/C6PtWvn The same shot with a DSLR: ibb.co/2kf1vLn Iphone 11 Pro shoots waaaay better than Note8/S8, but I couldn't make a comparison just yet.
After being surprisingly wrong on the first image (where I thought the sharper close up detail would be the camera), choosing correctly on the following images was easy. The iPhone tended to have more detail or sharpness in the close-up content and a more... blobby? character in the distant background. The real camera had less sharp - or more subtle? - close up detail and a unique, almost cell-like background blur. Had I not seen the images side by side for comparison, I would have found them both very nice. And perhaps real photographers find the camera's less sharp close up detail more natural, but I liked the iPhone's detail. This was really noticeable on the denim jacket. It looked smeared and washed out on the camera, where as on the iPhone it seemed like you could see the different colored threads more distinctly.
Could you imagine showing up to a wedding or a portrait shoot with only an iPhone instead of a camera and a set of amazing lenses and just seeing the clients face hahaha
@@ARC--hu5fj The hair gave it away to me. The Iphone looks more "cut out" along the head, while the camera captures some frizzy hairs. Reason being that the software has to decide what's in the foreground and whats in the background and where to add bokeh.
5 out of the 5. The over-sharpened images and the background were a dead give away. If you put the time you did on the DSLR photos you did on the iPhone jpg they would be even more noticeable. Have a follow-up video of the original file downloads and everyone will notice the difference. Also, IDX2 is almost 4 years old. Try comparing your DSLR with a 4-year-old iPhone. However, smartphone photos have come along way (not just iPhone) and I'm sure they will get better and so will DSLRs and Mirrorless camera. These High-end cameras also use the software.
*These pictures were taken in ideal situations for the Iphone* It's a good camera, but had you take it into low light situations even a cheap 500 dollar DSLR would do better. Not to mention the other things you can do with a DSLR that an iphone can not do, not even close. If you just want to take nice, decent pictures the iphone is alls you need. If you want to take eye catching, truly epic photos a bit of research on how to do it, and the right camera is what you'll want. You can get a nice dslr for under the price of the iphone. it's worth it. Get some nice lenses for any situation.
from a professional perspective,you can easily say what's of the iphone and what's not....the sharpness of the 1DX2 says it all.. anyway good job by apple ...it'll be really hard to decide when you'll be watching the pictures in social media where the image quality won't be so good...
5 out of 5. I love the camera on my Huawei p30 pro. It's the single reason I own this phone, (the p20 pro camera is awesome too). They both produce RAW files. I have a Nikon d300, but I rarely use it now.. one great advantage of a good quality phone camera is that it's in your pocket at any given moment..
I mean if you own a expensive camera and never print.. there is just something delightful in holding a fresh print, how much more vivid the colours are etc
Exactly what I thought ! As a printer/graphic designer I'm sick of people yelling at me like "OMG what have you done? I took this picture with my iPhone and it looks like crap !" Well this pictures are made to look good on your (small) screen but that's it...
Got all of them right, mostly because the phone's software fails sometimes at the edges of an object and it isn't as good when it comes to getting the more blurry the further you are from the object, so sometimes there are sharp feet but the floor directly at the feet is blurry😉
5/5 by looking at the bokeh. The most obvious is the first picture. When you look at the ground beside Matti's right foot you see how the ground suddenly changes from sharp to blurry on the iPhone picture. On the 1DX picture you see how the background becomes more and more blurry the further back you go. The most difficult one was the on in front of the water. I really had to pixel peep on that one.
If we looked at the raw imagines on the pc we would spot it a mile away on a compressed RUclips it is hard, let’s be honest here. I got 3/5 looking at it on my old iPhone
you are absolutely wright!pictures like on iphone looks the same on a lots of the phones,but if you take a look reality ,take look a picture on PC ,yes then normal camera allways is better! photos taken with phone is digitally commpressed and when you try to zoom closer,its goes blurry,but on normal camera with normal picture size sensor,image going better and better !
I congratulate Matti making this RUclips video. Very educational. After having taught Photography for forty years at a High School and College in California; I think it is fantastic that you can take as good of picture with a Iphone as with a $7,000 plus camera. I had always taught that the three most important things about a good image was " Concept, Composition, and Technique " Print Quality was also a factor in printing in B & W. I would give the students a grade / points in each one of these categories . The students would then try to master all three of these factors. Although I would push the most important objective ... To have fun with your work. Photography isn't about the equipment. It is about the image you put on the screen or wall, to show the world, the public, your friends and family. I would require my students to all have a single lens reflex camera. Today ; a SLR or a Iphone would be fine with me. It is the image at the end of the day. I only use an Iphone in shooting today. I am done with the professional world. Carrying a ton of equipment, lens, bodies, tripods, light meters etc, getting back to my objective of just having fun. Don't get me wrong. If you are a journalist, and outdoor nature photographer ( try photographing a wild animal, close up with an Iphone" , architectural photographer or serious photographer you can't do a job without a professional camera. But be assured; these photographers still need to think of Concept, Composition and technique. I thought one of the person's who commented here said that Apple should start making their own camera. I agree. Steve Jobs was passionate about photography and by his insistence ; you've got the Iphone quality. Try to keep the image as real as possible without all the gobbly Gook; unless you are into that thing. Learn Composition. Think about the image concept before you push the button, Think about lighting and I could go on and on. Spend more time and energy into the image and try to master that image and not the equipment . A $10,000 camera won't make you a better photographer. . The Iphone is Excellent. Just have fun with your photography. It is a real Art.
My Iphone 11 Pro photos aren't nearly as good, what is your process to get so nice colors and background blur? Do you shot RAW on the Iphone and use a third party app to edit the colors and add the background blur?
There ya have it. While the cell phone has come a long way. It's not gonna replace the DSLR for those exact reasons. There will always be a need for an actual camera. I think it's great what their doing with these cellphone cameras. They'll definitely replace the point and shoots.
@@jasonswartzbaugh3925 no one is saying smartphone cams are going to replace pro cameras. So many comments point out the phones cams shortcoming. The point is they are getting closer overall
But iPhone doesn’t do well in low light photography. You can see it’s a bit blurry and slightly grainy. Dslr/mirrorless will never replace a smartphone anytime soon.
@@GalenlevyPhoto AI/Machine learning in addition to the physical limitation of phones will compete with DSLR sooner than you think, think about it, the camera cost almost 8 times as much as the phone

@@bigggasss9429 Not sure about DSLR, but mirrorless is because there is exponentially more image data captured in an A7RIV than through an iPhone. No contest. If you're just shooting JPGs, you should probably just buy an iPhone.
The 'artificial' bokeh tells it. Most obvious with the leave: the edges that go outside your body frame are being smudged out as background bokeh.
This is the best review on RUclips i'v found yet about iphone 11 photography! The best thing is you color graded the photo to make both look the same. Perfect!
i got all 5. something just doesn't sit well with the backgrounds in the iPhone pictures
Adrian Symons Portrait mode by default tends to add a little more blur than you’d traditionally expect from the photo, which is why it’s always good to tweak the “aperture” when you edit the photo in the photos app
All identified correctly - the blur in iphone is some kind of "artificial".
lepo of-course it’s artificial. The digital pixelization does not give off a natural feel like an eye would give. Dslr is closest thing to your look that you see in the mirror. A natural you.
I got 4 out 5. Dammit!
me 2... just 2nd last was hard to tell, rest was pretty easy with that unnatural bokeh & the oversaturation in some parts.
@@wir-zusammen.7681 Yea I got the same one wrong too!
@@wir-zusammen.7681 exactly
I also got one wrong
The lake photo was the hard one but I got 4/5 .
I got 4 out of the 5 right
Moment lens + iOS 13 + iPhone 11 + focos app + Lightroom = professional social media photography tool alternative
got 5 out of 5 but i’m veeeery impressed with the iphone
the “problem” of the iphone is that the “bokeh” looks weird sometimes
Exactly how I saw things. Processing can be seen.
Agreed
Yep this was how I was able to get it, the bokeh looked like it obliterated the background more than a normal amount
Yes, and the effect can’t be applied to RAW, and most serious photogs need RAW. Also, the transitions/fall off from a subject is often still fake looking, because a computational blur essentially smears the pixels, making it look like the edges of the face are melting.
Iphone cant use a 70200 2.8 or a 85 1.8 or even a 50mm 1.8. With these lenses you would know immediately which one
You can easily tell the difference when you look at the hair.
With pixel you can't though
@@ncisgreat Of course you can. The Pixel has the same issue as the iPhone. Don't get me wrong, the software on both devices has definitely gotten a lot better over the years but they're still bad at rendering super fine edges.
@@McGravyLiciouss no
Pixel 4 is lot better than iPhone for rendering edges. You can check camera comparison videps on youtube
@@ncisgreat I have seen a few comparisons and i agree with you when it comes to Pixel being better at rendering fine edges than the iPhone but that doesn't change the fact that it's still a problem that exists within the computational photography realm. It doesn't matter if it's an iPhone, Pixel, Samsung, etc...
Its not a matter of how good a picture looks on a small screen or small picture to begin with. My old rebel t3i takes amazing looking photos and so does my 5d mark iv. The difference starts to get noticeable when you start blowing them up. For most small prints they will be fine, bigger prints you start to see some quality issues.
I got everything right after he answered.
🤣
Guessed?
I don’t care which one, I haven’t money
I love when you make these kind of videos. I personally can always tell the difference between the 2. mainly because the blur on the iPhone is always over processed. Your videos inspired me to make my own RUclips Chanel and purchase a mirrorless camera (Lumix G85) and start using some of your color grading techniques for my videos. I just posted my first scene of a short film im working on. can't wait till im as skilled as you are.
Your scene from your short skit is pretty dope
I can never tell the difference. I personally think people should save the extra money and just use cell phones for pictures.
I agree with you. and I think you did pretty good with the special effects.
your 100% right bro.
@@hopejourney1383 I get that for the most part. I think if your just taking pics for instagram them stay with smart phones.
Got all of them right. iPhone was more contrasty and "fake" looking, with worse depth of field, background was also better with pro cam. For example on 2:12 photo you can see individual hair on the right image, while iPhone considered it a background in on the left image; also at 1:43 with leaf, you can see pointing finger on the left being blurry. Difference is pretty clear, but not "7500$, quadruple the size, setting up and learning" clear, but you can distinguish the two.
Got them all right. Based it on background detail.
I got them all but it was very tough and I was almost guessing for some.
As a DLSR user and large format printing company, I can vouch for the quality. My iPhone promax does way more than I ever thought a phone could do. I actually bought the phone strictly for the camera. Oh, I also bought that focos app as soon as you mentioned it..great video and totally unbiased.
They are similar in everyday situations, but try to shoot at night, or wildlife or anything that requires extreme shutter speed changes or flexible focal length and aperture. Plus, lens distortion is a big problem with phone cameras. Try taking a selfie or shooting a portrait with a phone vs Dsrl and see where your face looks better. Also, if we were to see the raw images on both the Iphone and Dsrl the difference would be much higher. Overall an Iphone camera would do the job for most uick situations, but it certainly can't replace a Dsrl.
I definitely look better in DSLRs. Iphones make me ugly
this is what I Dont understand. how anyone can compare a good DSLR to a phone camera.
how about changing the lens and use 50mm 1.4 , will be comparable ?
your hair deserves its own channel
The lake one was difficult. iPhone's bokeh is just unreal to me.
Unreal is the right term as it is not produced by the lens :-)
Finally noticed the blur background shot by DSLR was more clear and detailed.
The iPhone’s bokeh is a bit more exaggerated
u can change it in the photo editor of iPhone
PorssiMies yeah because the Chinese government edits the photos for u
PorssiMies yea no. ...
Since the XS there is Depth control where u can increase and decrease the blur
@PorssiMies Huawei phones have the shittiest skin when it comes to android.
I got 5 out of 5 right... when you know how the “shallow depth the field” of an iPhone looks like it’s fairly simple...
but it’s incredible what the iPhone camera become!!!
Love your style matti 🔥🔥🔥
exactly. the depth of field of iphone is too obvious
Wait for s11 that would have a 108 mp camera
1DX is 8 years old. Has no computation. Wait until mirrorless cameras with smart features.
hahahahhahahahahahaahhahahahahahahahaahahahahahaha
@@Pizzatime650 that is the problem unfortunately. Non of the major camera players not putting enough thoughts into software. Sony are the only company has done some work in computation. Example eye detection. Now they are planing to put this technology in Sony phones. So at this rate cameras will be only needed in sport and wild life and may be just maybe in weddings
@@therandiked the software part is on your computer. It's called "Lightroom" or "Affinity". You've all absolutely no idea what you're talking about.
@@frankwalders I am not talking about software like lightroom or Photoshop. I am talking about computation built in with the cameras to autofocus, ( it is software vthat drives servo motors of the camera ect ) camera AI I am taking about. On the video he goes it is the computation. Software is big part of any product. Your washin,g machine has software in. Your tv, your car ....you don't have a clue ....software does not mean something that works on a computer
@@frankwalders btw you had me laughing when you referring software to something that on a computer hahahaha .... your phone has software which help to take amazing pictures. It is artificial intelligence Or AI
Have you made any comparison Filming with an iphone vs a dslr?
The focos app is insane, never heard of it! Thanks for sharing :)
Since when is Kevin Magnussen a tech reviewer?
yes! this was my first thought
I like that this tech will actually force mobile “photographers” to learn how to take a good pic and then realize that hardware is in a lot of ways the least important part of taking a good pic.
P. Peter R welllll my post actually was referring to people who are more concerned with specs than actual output. The most advanced camera in the world will take bad pictures if the user doesn’t know how to use it.
In my experience is not true. I was using samsung S8 and iPhone 10, but when I bought a standalone camera I could see a big difference right away and suddenly people started saying compliments about my pictures. Below a quick comparison
ibb.co/8KnP3KL
ibb.co/7VPLKmD
Huge difference in colors and dynamic range, especially if you shoot photos towards the sun
SleptOn I follow ya. My friend has a Pixel 3a and it has really provoked an interest in photography for him. He wants to know what to do to get into photography but doesn’t have much money right now. I told him he can learn a lot from his phone and still get rewarding images. Perspective is a big piece of good photos and there is a lot of color editing that can be done on a phone too. Showing up to a shoot with just a phone won’t be ideal but he can prep for when he can afford a nicer camera.
@@PabloB888 IDK man, that's what I've got with a Note8 which is similar to S8.
ibb.co/C6PtWvn
The same shot with a DSLR:
ibb.co/2kf1vLn
Iphone 11 Pro shoots waaaay better than Note8/S8, but I couldn't make a comparison just yet.
After being surprisingly wrong on the first image (where I thought the sharper close up detail would be the camera), choosing correctly on the following images was easy. The iPhone tended to have more detail or sharpness in the close-up content and a more... blobby? character in the distant background. The real camera had less sharp - or more subtle? - close up detail and a unique, almost cell-like background blur. Had I not seen the images side by side for comparison, I would have found them both very nice. And perhaps real photographers find the camera's less sharp close up detail more natural, but I liked the iPhone's detail. This was really noticeable on the denim jacket. It looked smeared and washed out on the camera, where as on the iPhone it seemed like you could see the different colored threads more distinctly.
5 out 5. Over sharpening on things like the beard and extreme blurring of the background are still noticeable on the iphone
Could you imagine showing up to a wedding or a portrait shoot with only an iPhone instead of a camera and a set of amazing lenses and just seeing the clients face hahaha
You'd be sacked on the spot, and likely sued for breaking your contract and ruining the wedding.
It's great to see apple investing in the phone camera again, as other phone manufacturers have done years. And finally 3 sensors.
Which camera you use for youtube videos??
1 mistake (the images with the lake was too difficult)
Almost had me too.
Yep.
@@ARC--hu5fj The hair gave it away to me. The Iphone looks more "cut out" along the head, while the camera captures some frizzy hairs. Reason being that the software has to decide what's in the foreground and whats in the background and where to add bokeh.
@@ARC--hu5fj Exactly, but looks like this does not fit at lake example
Same for me, I mainly was looking at the bits of hair sticking out of Matt’s head contour (usually blurred out in the iPhone)
True depth of field doesn't lie. That's why the lake photo was the hardest.
5 out of the 5. The over-sharpened images and the background were a dead give away. If you put the time you did on the DSLR photos you did on the iPhone jpg they would be even more noticeable. Have a follow-up video of the original file downloads and everyone will notice the difference. Also, IDX2 is almost 4 years old. Try comparing your DSLR with a 4-year-old iPhone. However, smartphone photos have come along way (not just iPhone) and I'm sure they will get better and so will DSLRs and Mirrorless camera. These High-end cameras also use the software.
*These pictures were taken in ideal situations for the Iphone*
It's a good camera, but had you take it into low light situations even a cheap 500 dollar DSLR would do better.
Not to mention the other things you can do with a DSLR that an iphone can not do, not even close.
If you just want to take nice, decent pictures the iphone is alls you need.
If you want to take eye catching, truly epic photos a bit of research on how to do it, and the right camera is what you'll want.
You can get a nice dslr for under the price of the iphone. it's worth it. Get some nice lenses for any situation.
*Pauses the video to pixel peak*
Matti: "I feel like you guys are pixel peaking to hard"
YOU GOT ME OK
from a professional perspective,you can easily say what's of the iphone and what's not....the sharpness of the 1DX2 says it all..
anyway good job by apple ...it'll be really hard to decide when you'll be watching the pictures in social media where the image quality won't be so good...
This is very easy, when you know how real bokeh looks like.
5 out of 5. I love the camera on my Huawei p30 pro. It's the single reason I own this phone, (the p20 pro camera is awesome too). They both produce RAW files.
I have a Nikon d300, but I rarely use it now.. one great advantage of a good quality phone camera is that it's in your pocket at any given moment..
I would love to compare them on printed media.
Yes, this all the way. Print photos from both cameras at 24x36", then retry the comparison.
But let's be real, 95%+ of photos are consumed on mobile now. Meaning resolution etc is mostly irrelevant.
I mean if you own a expensive camera and never print.. there is just something delightful in holding a fresh print, how much more vivid the colours are etc
Exactly what I thought ! As a printer/graphic designer I'm sick of people yelling at me like "OMG what have you done? I took this picture with my iPhone and it looks like crap !" Well this pictures are made to look good on your (small) screen but that's it...
lol, iphone is for instagram only.
Lol “no excuses” how about I don’t have the money?
How dare you to not have money!
Got them all correct. The colors, bokeh and details are slightly different.
Rosanna Bacolor Narrator: She didn’t.
@@s_i_m_o_ns_a_y_s5064 nah I did too, anyone can
What is that imac stand!!
Got all of them right, mostly because the phone's software fails sometimes at the edges of an object and it isn't as good when it comes to getting the more blurry the further you are from the object, so sometimes there are sharp feet but the floor directly at the feet is blurry😉
5/5 by looking at the bokeh. The most obvious is the first picture. When you look at the ground beside Matti's right foot you see how the ground suddenly changes from sharp to blurry on the iPhone picture. On the 1DX picture you see how the background becomes more and more blurry the further back you go. The most difficult one was the on in front of the water. I really had to pixel peep on that one.
with all the iphone photo, the cut out are not perfect as well
I had to watch the video in full screen and the bokeh gave immediately away the one made with the 1D
If we looked at the raw imagines on the pc we would spot it a mile away on a compressed RUclips it is hard, let’s be honest here.
I got 3/5 looking at it on my old iPhone
you are absolutely wright!pictures like on iphone looks the same on a lots of the phones,but if you take a look reality ,take look a picture on PC ,yes then normal camera allways is better! photos taken with phone is digitally commpressed and when you try to zoom closer,its goes blurry,but on normal camera with normal picture size sensor,image going better and better !
Janis Locis - Paruskins that’s why the pokaphone won for the best camera at mkbs channel. All the images look great when compressed
which camera will you recommend for a photographer enthusiast with not a great budget $ ? thanks Matti
That lake shot... I got it wrong and that really shows how good the iPhone camera is.
I congratulate Matti making this RUclips video. Very educational.
After having taught Photography for forty years at a High School and College in California; I think it is fantastic that you can take as good of picture with a Iphone as with a $7,000 plus camera. I had always taught that the three most important things about a good image was " Concept, Composition, and Technique " Print Quality was also a factor in printing in B & W. I would give the students a grade / points in each one of these categories . The students would then try to master all three of these factors. Although I would push the most important objective ... To have fun with your work.
Photography isn't about the equipment. It is about the image you put on the screen or wall, to show the world, the public, your friends and family. I would require my students to all have a single lens reflex camera. Today ; a SLR or a Iphone would be fine with me. It is the image at the end of the day.
I only use an Iphone in shooting today. I am done with the professional world. Carrying a ton of equipment, lens, bodies, tripods, light meters etc, getting back to my objective of just having fun. Don't get me wrong. If you are a journalist, and outdoor nature photographer ( try photographing a wild animal, close up with an Iphone" , architectural photographer or serious photographer you can't do a job without a professional camera. But be assured; these photographers still need to think of Concept, Composition and technique.
I thought one of the person's who commented here said that Apple should start making their own camera. I agree. Steve Jobs was passionate about photography and by his insistence ; you've got the Iphone quality.
Try to keep the image as real as possible without all the gobbly Gook; unless you are into that thing. Learn Composition. Think about the image concept before you push the button, Think about lighting and I could go on and on. Spend more time and energy into the image and try to master that image and not the equipment . A $10,000 camera won't make you a better photographer. . The Iphone is Excellent. Just have fun with your photography. It is a real Art.
The only one that almost tricked me was standing in front of the lake but I second guessed myself as the dynamic range is 'better' on the phone.
My Iphone 11 Pro photos aren't nearly as good, what is your process to get so nice colors and background blur? Do you shot RAW on the Iphone and use a third party app to edit the colors and add the background blur?
you know your on a whole other level of bad internet when the ad stops to load
Only missed the last one, but MAN smartphones are insane now days!
God damn I actually thought the DSLR was B
What camera you used to record yourself !!!!! I need to know ASAP
Remember the days when you had to bring a phone, a photo camera, film, a camcorder, and tapes when you go out?
"oversharpening"
*Nikon has left the chat*
:(
Capture nxd lets you disable in post
A pro shooter? Do the integrity thing: shoot with the $1K phone and tell the client it was the $7K Canon.
Easy peasy. ;)
lol, I hope you are deleting metadata from the photos, people can get angry if they discover you "fooled" them. (I sometimes do the same)
.
Signe P lol if you getting caught. You ain’t that good at it
@@KING0SISQO who told I have got caught? I might be super careful person to avoid those kind of things..
The specs of the standard iPhone 11 camera and the wide lens are basically the same as the 11 pro, yes?
Thanks.
I literally got 0 correct :(
l'd like to see that phone go up against a DSLR while shooting wildlife, motorsports, or high ISOs such as ISO 3200.
There ya have it. While the cell phone has come a long way. It's not gonna replace the DSLR for those exact reasons. There will always be a need for an actual camera. I think it's great what their doing with these cellphone cameras. They'll definitely replace the point and shoots.
@@jasonswartzbaugh3925 no one is saying smartphone cams are going to replace pro cameras. So many comments point out the phones cams shortcoming. The point is they are getting closer overall
@@Sm00thieK Jesus Christ can you shut up
That fake bokeh is obvious to the trained eye.
I agree but at the same time who is paying your bills? If the client isnt a photographer the small details dont really matter.
@Gap won't lie. This year's iPhone would actually do a very decent job
But iPhone doesn’t do well in low light photography. You can see it’s a bit blurry and slightly grainy. Dslr/mirrorless will never replace a smartphone anytime soon.
@@GalenlevyPhoto AI/Machine learning in addition to the physical limitation of phones will compete with DSLR sooner than you think, think about it, the camera cost almost 8 times as much as the phone
Its easy to know witch is iphone camera. Picture witch is smoother background is iphone :)
Imagine adding this software to the 1dx
5 out of 5. The bokeh shows, which one is the DSLR with the Aperature formed Bokeh.
literally what I wanted to say
4 out of 5, I missed the lake picture
Same
better HDR on iphone is obvious giveaway there
That one was easy for me. I just looked at the water, iPhones do amazing with water reflections.
Same!
5/5 correct because of the background, but it is insanely close.
7:29 barber: Oops! think I made a mistake
I got them all right since usually iPhone pictures have more or a boca effect in the background while the IDX2 is more of a balanced shot
Anish Rajah bokeh*
What an iPhone never can do better: The fun you have taking pictures with an DLSR.
I am impressed. I have been doing photography for 20 years and I am getting an old school iPhone XS Max and even that will replace my Sony N series mirrorless camera.
