eco friendly is to keep using your existing, working, good enough phone for a couple more years until it dies, then send it out for recycling. To use no plastic on the packaging is nice, but it does not change the fact that Sony is a huge manufacturer that pollutes, consumes resources and generates tons of waste just in order to sell consumer products. Every step counts but maybe the truly revolutionary would be to make a new model every 2 years instead of every year, that would save more resources and help the planet more than any non-plastic wrap.

Does Nestle tell you in their ads that the chocolate you buy is responsible for slave labor? Does Zara tells you they use kids from Bangladesh to sew their clothes? they hide that and sell you lifestyle.

Thanks for bringing this up, the whole computational photography thing is really the central point here. I do a lot of mirrorless photography so sometimes people ask me what phone they should get for the best photo quality. I usually tell them that we're now in the post-hardware-specs era where it doesn't really matter that much what the sensor is actually outputting, it only matters what the software then does with this image. If an image looks more appealing at first glance in a side-by-side comparison it's not because the sensor has some crazy stats that make the image look better, it's usually just because the processing adapts the colours and details to look more like whatever patterns some neural network has extracted from a huge dataset of aesthetically pleasing professionally edited images.
@greven1822 жыл бұрын
I understand what you are getting at, but it is not really true and it is very evident by the quality of the photos that Marques showed here from the Sony compared to the iPhone. Any decent camera, event a point and shoot like the Sony RX will have way better quality than any phone camera can produce. Mobile photography always has that fake HDR look to it, even during the day, never enough contrast since the dynamic range is faked. Of course some shots do benefit a lot from that computational photography so out of the camera and to people that don't really understand post processing it is way easier to get a better photo on an iPhone or similar, but there is still no competition between a dedicated camera and a phone. With this said, the best camera is the one you got with you, so most times that is your phone! :)
@PascalSommerMovies2 жыл бұрын
@@greven182 Yes, completely agree about that fake HDR look! We're nowhere near the point yet where I'd trade my Sony A7S II for a phone camera. Although as you point out, most people won't notice it that much under "normal" (i.e. whatever the algorithms have been optimized for) conditions. However I'd go even further and say that it's not just that non-photographers don't notice, it's rather that phones and cameras are competing in slightly different spaces. For someone creating photos that are to be viewed on a small screen, competing against over-saturated Instagram photos, while under time pressure to get content out immediately during some event, those iPhone/Samsung/Pixel phone cameras might just be the better tool for the job even for people heavily invested in all their proper camera gear.

The picture of the remote was the only one I wouldn't easily pick from Sony. The rest of the images in the comparison, the Xperia did wonderfully. The backgrounds were very detailed and beautifully blurred, the colors look natural, and the images look pleasing as they are as natural as our eyes see the world. Even if the Xperia can't do the quick image perfect capture like other phones do, it would do better in artistic photography since you hold the large share of control over capturing images rather than the a computer. Sony just allows you to add as much personal touch as you want. Not saying you can't achieve the same with computational photography since you can touch up those images as well.

For a photographer the Sony Pro I wins hands down, it's not even close. If you just like to snap pictures and don't really like to think about setup and editing photos, you are better off with an Iphone or a Samsung that add a lot of contrast and color saturation. You wouldn't recommend a SLR camera to anyone, they make amazing photo's if you now what you're doing, but most people don't so don't buy one if it's not for you.

The price is steep for what it is but that's been a Sony thing forever and I doubt they are going to change that. In their defense, I've never had to replace one of their products because of a defect so I feel whatever I may spend is a good investment because I don't change my phone every year.

@rovado222 жыл бұрын
I highly doubt that Sony can make a good budget phone. The Xperia 10 line is maybe not really budget, but somewhat affordable. The problem is that the 10 is so inferior to the Xperia 5 and Xperia 1 and even other phones in that price range. It does have head phone jacket and a SD slot, but on all other aspects it is a mediocre phone. Even the camera on the Xperia 10 is not that good. It feels like they design the software for their high-end phones and it doesn't really work on the cheaper Xperia 10.

Most consumers want ready made processed photos that a phone AI spoon feeds them. That's why they like iPhone photos more.

However, the pixels on the sensor will be the same pitch as a 12mp sensor of 1/1.3 inch type sensor. Combined with the brighter aperture of rival phones, the Sony is still going to perform worse in low light. Though, the difference shown is primarily down to Sony's more traditional image processing, which doesn't properly utilise computational advantages of modern smartphones

Mkbhd- Yes, it seems incredible after checking out few other youtubers. Apple Guy- Yes, and we are worried that it would hurt our sales for iPhone 13 Max Pro. MkBhD- It might. Apple Guy- So, we want you to make it look little small in front of our 13 pro max so don't show its manual photography and other great video thing. MkbhD- Okay Boss, but it comes with a cost. Apple guy- Got it, check your phone. But remember no manual photography skills to be shown. MkbhD gets a notification on his phone, Dear, XXXXX $ has been credited to your account. MkbhD - Sure, 13 pro max is the best, Sony sucks in Auto-photography. Apple Guy- Great, that's the narrative. You're the best.

It turns out that there was a good reason the whole sensor isn't used, and there are benefits from doing what they did versus using a smaller sensor. Has alot to do with noise/aberrations/clarity etc and shutter speed or something. Worth looking into before thinking Sony was trying to look impressive for no reason. I think the next gen chips (post 888) will be a game changer for in-phone camera setups like this and we'll see more.

In fact when someone is reffing to a dimension of a sensor they're usually referring to its width or the width of the closes corresponding pice of film. When someone is talking about a 1" sensor, they're always talking about a 1" Type sensor because there is no such thing as an actual 1" sensor for that to be confused with.
