yes, it’s a new ball game.      I too make occasional images with my iPhone, when it’s the only camera I have with me. there are some stunning images out of mobile camera phones, many apps, and some experts/pros specializing in what is possible with this new technology. Personally I have some very mixed feelings, but no doubt, when it is the only camera with you, don’t hesitate, you can make some stunning images, and it’s a lot better than nothing.
