Mobile Phone Photography

The iPhone camera has become a regular piece of gear for me. Why? because it's always with me! I have been able to capture some of my favorite images with the iPhone.

In just a few short months, Apple will be releasing iOS 5 which will add even more great features to the iPhone camera. We can expect things like AE/AF Lock, Grid Lines, Pinch-to-Zoom, and image editing all built right into the iPhone camera application. These new and enhanced features only make the iPhone camera more powerful and convenient as a legitimate replacement for a point and shoot camera.

The image above was taken with my iPhone 4 camera on the streets of downtown Portland outside of a local Starbucks. It's hard to believe that only a couple of years ago images like these were not possible to capture with a mobile phone. Both as a Technologist and a Photographer, I am excited to see what the future holds for mobile phone photography.
