Ahhhhh, let this better not teach us anything :nah ... other than ... we should better shut up when we see uncle Bob filming over our shoulder

Impressed? YES
Should one start shooting with iphones? NO
Am I going to be scared uncle Bob will have better photos than me? NOPE, and *if* uncle Bob does, then I better lay down my camera and cry in a corner.

Thanks for sharing the link. It was sure nicely cut and told the story

If you read the little paragraph below, it states that this was shot using several phones and several professional photographers and videographers. No uncles included !!

I know. But I'm not sure if a pro photographer is that much better thank a creative uncle bob with that device. Doesn't take that much knowledge.

Well, they were shots done by a pro so they know composition and lighting, but they also have very good PP skills. The only problem is that they don't get to choose their lens, adjust settings manually to their liking, they won't have all the capabilities that RAW offers you and they won't have the resolution of a high-end dSLR. Other than that, any pro * should * be able to take well-composed and lit on a point and shoot and work them up as they would any other image to have something somewhat relatively comparable (not the same as!) to their other work.

On second thought... I guess you COULD attach a lens

I think it's the result should be judged on its merits, without reference to gear and photographer.

Even the pro-est of pros hopes and prays while they are pretending to order exactly what they want of the world!

The greatest writers write books that relatively few people read, while we all delight in the off-the-cuff quips of our "ordinary" friends.

IOW what we like, we like - for itself!:D

Obviously, part of the point of that presentation was to show that the iPhone 4 has the technical ability to deliver *in skilled hands*. What I think it proves is that cameras - in whatever form or format - are tools. Post processing software and computer power... are tools. Skill and an artistic eye is what puts them to good use and creates fabulous shots.

They didn't only use an iPhone. They had a tripod, lighting, AND changeable lenses. http://iphoneshooters.com/?page_id=2
