Subtitle: What is the best camera?
No, it’s no wonder of artistic merit. (And no, the iPhone doesn’t actually take x-rays.) But how often does one typically run into a turtle’s radiograph on display? I was in the vet’s office for my cat Bigelow, whose photo you saw yesterday. While I waited in the exam room, there was this turtle’s x-ray.
There’s a saying*: the best camera is whichever one you happen to have with you. I certainly have more technically capable pieces of photographic equipment than my iPhone. But it’s impractical to try to be one of those photographers who takes an SLR camera with them everywhere they go. But I take my phone everywhere. And when that’s all that’s with me, it’s the best camera I’ve got.
