    Maybe she wanted to post it in Facebook or Instagram?

        It that way the world is moving towards. I was at an event last evening, there was maybe 3 people there with DLSR and the rest were using their phones to capture their images.

          I really do question the need for a dslr for general use.....image quality is amazing on recent phones
          ..........but of course phone cameras are challenged for noise, focussing, dof control etc etc....but where that's not an issue they are King.

              The use of camera phones is only going to increase as companies pour more and more into development and including new ideas to be top of the market. Irrespective of the number of pixels, the number of cameras within the handset or processor etc, I cant see that they will ever match a proper camera for wildlife and perhaps in particular capturing birds in flight.

              I would probably be one of those people. My phone is my sat nav, internet browser and e mail checker when i am out and about, my photo album and kindle ( which is in sync with books on my i pad and full sized kindle. I very rarely make calls or use the camera

                People use their phones as a photo album. they are great for that sort of record photography. As to their general use, I have always said that the best camera in the world is the one you have with you and as we all carry mobile phones, that is often the only camera we have with us.As to the picture I love that sort of candid shot. The story is so important. Great grab, Stan.
