Can You Distinguish Leica Photos from iPhone Shots?
Photographer David Imel conducted a test comparing photos taken with a Leica M11 and an iPhone 17 Pro using RAW files to see if smartphone photos can match traditional cameras. The experiment highlighted that modern smartphone processing often lifts shadows and simplifies images, but with proper settings, smartphones can produce impressive results. The test demonstrated that while traditional cameras offer a better shooting experience, smartphones are capable of capturing high-quality images, especially in good lighting conditions.
