Mobile phones are constantly evolving, and companies introduce new features in every new phone they launch in the market, and on top of these features comes the development of the camera for mobile phones.
With the interest in mobile phone cameras, the car company “Bentley” went to contract with “Apple” to film its car advertisement via the “iPhone” phone.
Film festivals have also begun to allocate awards for short films filmed with mobile phones, and special festivals have been dedicated to this type of film, known as “mobile cinema festivals”.
However, a professional digital camera is still more desirable for photography, even at the level of portraiture, with the ability to control its lens and reach a higher image resolution.
The principle of capturing a picture on a mobile phone and a digital camera is the same, which is to enter light into the device and reflect it on the “sensor” or “sensor” of the camera, to be processed, but they differ in many technical aspects.
The first technical difference between a mobile phone camera and a digital camera is the aperture, that is, the amount of light that enters the processor through the lens.
Digital cameras give more options for the possibility of interchangeable lenses, and here the importance of lenses that provide more options for the user, especially with regard to the professional aspect.
The same applies to the camera settings themselves, which provide the user with several shooting styles that suit the location and lighting available in it, while modern mobile phones cannot always provide these features, although they provide the ability to control some settings.
This difference appears during filming in dark places, or events in indoor places, such as birthdays, for example, and the “Land Tech” website, which specializes in technology, indicates the superiority of professional cameras in this field.
This is explained by the connection between the aperture and the shutter speed, and since the shutter speed is lower in mobile phones, the final image quality is directly affected.
The shutter in a camera is responsible for the amount of time that light enters the camera through the lens.
Shutter speed in professional cameras can be fully controlled, unlike mobile phone cameras, which control the shutter remains limited.
This applies to the rest of the general settings in the camera, which digital cameras provide the ability to fully control, and this is what cannot be achieved currently with mobile phone cameras, according to what the technology journalist, Hana Buckle, explained in an article she published on the “BT” website. in 2018.
While simple access to settings remains a favorite for many non-professional photographers, who do not like to delve into the complexities of settings for professional cameras.
Field journalists around the world no longer have to carry modern cameras during press coverage, with mobile phone cameras, especially in demonstrations and hot events that require Ease of movement.
Mobile phone cameras provide a good resolution image suitable for the work of websites, and a smaller file size that enables the user to send them directly, and more quickly, to the media outlets that he deals with.
As well as on a personal level for posting photos and videos on social media.
Modern phones also provide the ability to edit and modify video clips directly through dedicated applications, which saves additional time in many emergency cases.
While production companies continue to use digital cameras to film serials, programs, and press conferences.
