These are the type of retards in /k

Yup smartphones have been displacing the camera market for a long time now. You can see it from the camera industry sales figures like this one: http://petapixel.com/2015/04/09/this-is-wh...hones-included/

it's like astrophotography, u dont think that 1 image give u the milky way lel

hebat gila.. tu baru 8 mp tu

Obviously being a senior member here doesn't exclude you from the R category. Do you even understand plain English to begin with?

If I wanna talk about PQ, the title of this tered would've been "why iPhone photos better than DSLR". But it's not. You guys are just full of butthurt.

Depends on perspective. I think compacts and prosumers can bungkus already. Dslrs just a matter of time

Just see how the dslrs have evolved over the past 5 years vs the now trusty camera phone

what is PQ, party quest? lol why u so mad. u post an obvious bait thread and expect ppl to reply seriously to you? in kopitiam ?

You don't even begin to understand what a bait tered is. Am I not asking a legitimate question? Tell me which part is the bait? By calling you guys DSLR fags?

ts trying hard to be professional


bungkus la dey

lol, i dont own a dslr so im not insulted by your comment

but if you really wanna debate whether something that has been around for ages will dissappear so soon, then I think you might as well debate whether sports cars will go the way of the dodo once we have efficient electric cars. The answer, obviously, is that there will always exist a niche where people will push the limits of technology, trying to get as much performance as possible out of something.

your post is like saying that desktop computer will go away once we have tablet.

OK, DSLR>all

Standalone camera won't die. But it will become a very niche market with only a few players left to serve the market. Many would divest and exit the field.

now now dont get so upset. it's like those stupid audiophiles, they think CD is the big thing but eventually become outdated as digital high bitrate becomes widely available. You will have your day in the sun, it just won't be as soon as you think.

The dslr user quite fail... If able to lose to iPhone in catching moving objects (page 7,8,9)

Anyway nowadays it's not so much about Image quality already, all the users also viewing on phones and tablet, hard to see much difference. In fact with emergence of mobile devices, the preferred format of videos now are going vertical too.. camera phones trumps in this age because of the ecosystem, it connects to your phone which has a cloud, has post processing apps, links to social media, etc. the experience is constantly evolving unlike the dslr which may try to do the same but ends up clunky

Now that's a more decent reply Although my sarcasm meter is tingling wildly

True, standalone are trying very hard though. Introduction of video function, wifi connectivity even instant connectivity to social medias. Which is laughable. Are they trying to be a smart phone? Meanwhile, the smartphone tries hard to be...a camera! Where's the point of equilibrium?

the answer is simple
if phone camera can replace standalone camera
thn there is no need for digital camera, mirrorless, micro 4/3 and DSLR to exist anymore
these companies aren't stupid

Before all of you fanboys comment any further, here's something the most famous of landscape photographer Ansel Adams would say...

The idea here is that the person, not the gear, takes the picture. And there is a story that tells the tale of an encounter between famous novelist Ernest Hemingway and famous photographer Ansel Adams. In the story, Hemingway is purported to have praised Adams’ photographs, saying, "You take the most amazing pictures. What kind of camera do you use?"

Adams frowned and then replied, "You write the most amazing stories. What kind of typewriter do you use?"

it's not wrong to dream,

just like vios dreaming of becoming a ferrari

both can run quite well on a perfect line at a short distance.

One reach 5 minutes earlier, the other 5 minutes later.

Not much difference, eh?

If like that, very little ppl will buy standalone camera. Then have to raise camera price to compensate. Purist have to sell backside to buy standalone camera = sadding.

I'm a little surprise you've used that analogy.

Imagine this scenario...a person with an iPhone & another with his bags of equipment. In the spur of the moment & at that exact moment, a one in a million shot appears. Who would be laughing all the way to the bank? The Ferrari or the vios? And I'm under the assumption that Ferrari is the bags of gears.

Oh, and dang...the person with the bags of gear can't take the shot even after the person with the iPhone camera collected his money for that one in a million shot coz he was busy changing his lens, adjusting the white balance, aperture, shutter bla bla bla
