iPhone vs. DSLR: The San Gabriels
#1

I live within easy view of the San Gabriel mountain range in SoCal and have spent many years trying to catch views of the various weather occurrences that dance among the peaks. I've got a nice little collection of stock photos, most shot with non-DSLR long-range zoom cameras.

This week it rained and today when it cleared I expected some nice snow up there, but no. Nevertheless, my little walk gave me an opportunity to compare shooting the mountains with the iPhone I always have on my belt vs. my Canon EOS Rebel T3 which I have to purposefully dig out of the closet.


And here are the results! Second photo taken at 130mm zoom out of 300.

Where is the IPhone image?

Nikon D3100 with Tokina 28-70mm f3.5, (I like to use a Vivitar .43x aux on the 28-70mm Tokina), Nikkor 10.5 mm fisheye, Quanteray 70-300mm f4.5, ProOptic 500 mm f6.3 mirror lens. http://donschaefferphoto.blogspot.com/

Thanks Don, I should have elaborated more. The wide shot is with the iPhone.

And also to be clear, I am not comparing image quality (as we already understand that), rather lens reach. In 35mm days I loved my long zooms/telephotos. I miss that with the iPhone.
