>>2664477Phone cameras? They're current-gen high tech gadgetry, with the high end of PDAF sensors (smaller, but still amazing) even on the new midrange phones, besides astonishing amounts of processing power.
Of course they also do pretty much all the work for the photographer apart from pointing them in the right direction and optionally adjusting a few trivial knobs at most.
Let's use a high-end Sony A7R II with prime glass on full auto with the halfwit and some self-made camera obscura with self-made film for the pro and see who wins at just shooting ten commonly photographed subjects (sports, animals, people, nature...), 20 minutes for each.
The pro will have done some of this a billion times - clearly his insanely important artist skills will compensate, right?
