Hi crew, If you were going to buy, for a better name? "A camera-phone?" which would you consider best "CAMERA PHONE" on the market? I don't care if I can talk to some one in Berlin or my next door neighbor! Communication isn't relative. I want the best and most adaptable as a camera? THINK "absolutely cool camera!" Not an iphone that can make images and talk to your long lost uncle at the same time! However that maybe as good as they get? It's for a research program I was asked to think about and be involved in as a "FOR REAL PHOTOGRAPHER?" Using an iphone? Or whatever they're called? And not an EIO!... "ELECTRICAL INSTRUMENT OPERATOR." Someone who knows all the telephone/radio/maps/apps? Whatever the hell that is??? And all the other magical things one can do.... and who knows how to make? .."PHONE-EXPOSURES!" But doesn't have any idea about shooting good, bad or ugly photography! "USING LIGHT" or any of the basics of being a photographer making interesting photographs. I figure if I start here ON LIST at least I have photographers who may have lots of experience with these magical instruments. So at least I'm starting out with a good exposing machine. IE.. "A camera that is also a communications instrument." Thank you all if and when you have a spare moment for a word of experience and your wisdom! cheers, Dr. ted :-) _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
