So the last thing I wanted to make sure I covered was natural lighting between the two cameras. I have already done photography with articifal lighting so I wanted to see how they compared with lighting from out
Canon EOS M50
1/60, F 3.5, 0 light change, ISO 100
iPhone XS Max
1/60, F1.8, 0 light change, ISO 320
The first two photos here are of a leafy road. I thought it would so a good example of how the different cameras would focus and it definitely did. One main difference is the point of focus that the two camera had. The Canon one very clearly focuses on the leaves and only the leaves. The phone camera however, just kind of focuses until somewhere a little past the leaves it starts to blur. I think both are unique and different and based on focus alone I don't have a preference.
The other thing to notice is the hue or color that the photos have. The one to the left is slightly less yellow, so with the main factors added together I like the Canon photo better.
1/100, F 6.3, -.67 light change, ISO 1600
1/101, F 1.8, -1.09 light change, ISO 100
In these photos, the main difference besides tone and color is the zoomage.Because of how far away I was standing, I would have no longer had a sharp photo had I zoomed in anymore on the iPhone side. Because the subject isn't as defined however, it totally changes the background and overall color of the picture.
The Canon camera was able to have a sharper zoom as well as capture a totally different hue to the photo. I really like the blues of the photo and the focus on the pinecone thingy. It's really interesting how the two cameras focus and capture color differently.
1/40, F 6.3, 0 light change, ISO 1600
1/60, F2.4, 0 light change, ISO 250
For these last two photos I honestly like both. Again the two together show the quality of the zooming capabilities, but in both photos the yellow is nicely captured against the greenish blue background. I keep saying it, but I still like the Canon photo better because of how the main subject is really in focus against the background.
One thing I did notice on the iPhone side was how it took longer to focus on one thing. It didn't really have much of a manual focus, and when it did focus on a leaf or branch it would quickly unfocus itself.
