Camera vs. Cell Phone response

               Cell phones have changed the nature of photography through many aspects. Photography used to consist of a camera shooting a photograph of a beautiful sight, printing the picture through Walgreens or Target, or even your own printer, and hanging it on the refrigerator or the wall to keep the memory alive and remember the moment. Now with cell phones, we take the picture and fail to think about this moment again because the time is over and done with. When we have a cell phone, we can always refer back to the moment, but with a tangible photograph, we can feel more in the moment because you are actually feeling the photo just like you can feel a moment. When it comes to a camera, people are more likely to upgrade to a better camera because the quality of a picture will be better than an old camera, but with a cell phone we always choose a better phone because it’s a newer model and nobody really seems to pay attention to the camera and picture quality. Cell phones are able to take a photograph within seconds and immediately see the picture to edit its appearance based on how it turned out and possibly take a new one. But if we use a camera, we must upload the photographs to a computer before we can edit which is much more time consuming than a cell phone. Old cameras with film had to be processed before revealing the beautiful image, which could take multiple days. Using a cell phone the image is revealed immediately and is more reliable to have the picture as soon as it’s taken for processing the film would cause a hassle. Another difference between a cell phone and a real camera is the cell phone can be zoomed in to see a better view, but will be pixelated and blurry. The camera will be clean and crisp if you want to crop or trim the image. The cell phone and camera differ in many ways, but the camera will always be more reliable than the cell phone.
