Fashion set shot with iPhone 3GS

Fashion set shot with iPhone 3GS by Lee Morris

The photographer Lee Morris got tired of people letting him know that taking good photos was all about having the right camera. He arranged a fashion photo shoot and took all of the photos with his cell phone – an iphone 3Gs. Amazing results! Next time someone tells you that the iPhone camera sucks show them this article.

I posted a few of the images and asked people to critique them (never exposing that they were shot on my cell phone). I couldn’t help but laugh when a few of our readers claimed that these were “the best images I had ever taken.” Nobody ever claimed that they were too grainy, too soft, or lacked detail.

3D camera from Fujifilm

At least something innovative is released on the, currently quite boring, camera market. This little beast from Fujifilm features two lenses and is capable of capturing stereoscopic images. Neat! Too bad you have to wait until next year to get it though, but at that time Fujifilm promises that the camera will capture high definition video as well.

Waste of resources

Quarter Million Dollars of Digital Photo Gear in a Single Photo

This might be a cool photo for some people, but personally I think it’s nothing but plain stupid. It’s a photo of a bunch of photographers covering the Beijing Olympics and I can of course understand all problems that this kind of mass coverage solves – but to me it’s just a plain waste of resources.

Ricoh GR Digital II – review

Ricoh GR Digital II

I just got a mail from Mark over at Photographyblog letting us know that they have published a nice review of the quite unusual camera GR Digital II from Richoh. It looks like something made in Russia in the 1970s but got an awesome review:

Back in the real world, we’re left with a pocket camera that is a veritable pleasure to use and which delivers excellent photos at slower ISO speeds. If you want the ultimate image quality, then you should clearly choose the Sigma DP1, despite its short-comings. If you want a more well-rounded and versatile 28mm camera, then the Ricoh is still a fantastic choice for the serious photographer.

So if you are looking for a new small pocket camera this one might be worth checking out.
