With the iPhone 7, Apple changed the camera industry forever
I found this article very interesting from Om Malik and the New Yorker.
My take is that camera companies are facing a challenge, a challenge of survival due to the iPhone. In the long term I think it may be good for professional photographers though. They are facing fierce competition from consumers who have DSLRs. As fewer people buy these DSLRs and use a smartphone, this will lead to less competition for the professionals. This is good for the art of photography. The camera companies will have to change though. They will have to focus on professional photographers and not consumers. This will be hard and the question is can they do this. Time will tell.
I personally ordered the iPhone 7+ for the camera. I’m not sold on the size, but the camera – I want it. I talked with a friend who is a professional photographer and we thought it’d be interesting to go out and see how the iPhone 7+ compares to his professional equipment. We already know who’s going to win – he will. But it’ll be interesting to see how the iPhone compares. I may have to create a post about it. 🙂
