The lower pic is iphone 17 Pro Max because of backend smartphone computational processing, while the RX100V is really waiting for user to do post processing.

In good lightings and static screens and viewed on tiny fraction of a smartphone screen, I dun think it is easy to tell apart. You cannot tell apart 8k reasolution vs 2k resolution on a comparatively tiny smartphone screen.

But under poor lightings / need for tracking / high shutter speeds the difference is more glaring

In this example I purposely chose a dark scene with fast moving subject to stress the phone.

Full Frame mirrorless, this photo was actually taken after the smartphone shot.

PP.

I am a Raw only shooter so will need to go thru PS/Bridge, but nothing too radical. I get tired if I need to spend more than 2 mins on a pic.

Faces in backlit situations without flash, smart phone seems better
computational HDR, which many now take for granted
we don't hear people meddling with exposure compensation nowadays :D

Can’t see the second pic

first pic is not your photo rite? It looks like animated one.

anyway what focal length or lens you use to shoot the zip lines and are there restrictions they imposed (aka actually not allowing you to hold or use camera once you are up there)

First one is more to show what it is about....
ReUploaded the handphone one. I haven processed the ones using a canon 55-250mm which on my a6400 is a 400mm....

it was from a rest area and lots of family were shooting their son/father/mother. i juz join in the fun while taking a icecream break.....

because it does computational image processing on the fly, which otherwise you have to spend hours post-holiday to edit your digicam photos

Happens in the blink of an eye phones stack multiple shots tone map hdr contrast sharpening with just a single click, and now with fast processors most do not notice it.

Quite amazing

I think nowadays majority of people are satisfied with just using an iPhone to take pictures..no need to carry the bulky camera around also
i still using my trusty Fujifilm X-T2
