Hey guys & gals. I’m looking for controversial topics and opinions for me to discuss on a podcast about the industry or as a creator. Give me your best! (Or I guess, worst?)

    Phone vs camera. Often phone camera users mock people who invest in good camera gear. Also, often camera owners undermine people with good sense of framing that use only their phones for photography. Idk how it is everywhere, but at least in India I have come across this debate quite a lot

      Personal feelings on the phone versus camera thing. Using a camera is what puts my brain into “photography mode” where I’m actually thinking about framing and composition and light whereas with my phone it’s more of a quick document the moment thing. Totally agree with the idea that the best one is whichever is available in any given moment though. While a thoughtfully composed image will be better than a quick grab,the quick grab is infinitely better than nothing at all.

      Phones are computers first, and cameras second.

      Cameras are cameras first and computers second.

      They both approach the same goal with different processes. Both are fine. Use what makes sense to you in the moment.

        exactly, but most of these discussion are top down and “Phone = bad” people focus on gear and not the end result
