Isla Posted September 5, 2023 Share Posted September 5, 2023 (edited) Following a 7am work Pow Wow, Biscuit & her rider went for a mini adventure into the Peak District. 1st stop was in the tiny hamlet of Tunstead to find a stone that marks the birthplace of James Brindley, followed by a short bimble further East to Tideswell for a bite to eat, sat on a bench outside it's 14th century church..

It was thank you. I would love a half decent camera but phones are just so convenient for random shots! This is just a cheap Motorola G8. The pics are better if you switch to manual mode...and good light helps too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RideWithStyles Posted September 5, 2023 Share Posted September 5, 2023 Nope been there and done that. i dont need to waste money on filling fat techno giant(s) anymore, need to and want to ride more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiggie Posted September 5, 2023 Share Posted September 5, 2023 Myself I couldn't justify paying close to 2k for the newest models or paying a high monthly contract anyway. I was simply showing that phones can and do take good photographs. My phone is hardly latest and greatest. In fact not even close. 4 years old and cost £350 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S-Westerly Posted September 5, 2023 Share Posted September 5, 2023 You might say that the small pics in the posts (if you are looking on a phone) are going to look reasonable anyway but even if you expand them they aren't bad. Unless you are a semi pro and trying to get large format photos a phone is fine for pics. Small, convenient and let's face it most pics are purely for personal use and you look at them on a phone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you mostly but am with Ridewithstyles on the distant scenery. I have started using the timer to avoid camera shake when pressing the shutter but it only helps to a point, so distant views aren't something I tend to snap unfortunately. 2 hours ago, Ronnie said: And the photos looked fine to me !

Google pixel, tbh it's not a great phone, it's ok, but it takes some great pics, definitely it's saving grace, it also makes tweaking them easy for a mobile, new model on the horizon so be plenty of deals to be had but there's not much difference in spec to the one from 2021 and that is cheaper. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
