It was so good! Did you end up getting a new phone?
No, I'm saving my money for my car right now.

These were all JPG. Honestly, I really don't like the RAW photos. There is so much work required to get them to look decent. You need to manually correct the lens correction, as it has dark vignetting in the corners, images are a tad noisy even at ISO 100, they aren't very sharp, they are very dull, etc. So even for a snapshot I have to tweak a ton of settings, plus you can't use HDR mode with RAW, which is a quick and easy way to get nice looking landscapes.
I really think RAW mode is a gimmick, I'd rather have a nicely processed JPG like the ones above straight out of the phone, than to have to deal with processing RAW files from a phone. I do like the manual mode though, I'll probably mess around with 30 second exposures, shutter speed, and manual focus though.

That they are! No editing at all.
That's great! Smartphone cameras are really coming along now! :good:

Thanks! This was a composite image as well of I believe 9 photos, after cropped it's a 63MP image
No, it's a composite (stitched together panoramic)

It's 12 photos stitched together. The PSD for the image is 1GB lol

Spent the night on Mt. Washington, here's one of the sunrise photos from this morning:

Thought I'd update!
Those who follow my Flickr and Twitter will be aware that I've been busy doing a lot of photography for school for the past week now. Photos of school proms and sports day are currently on my Flickr but for various reasons they may be removed shortly.
Moving on, on Friday July 3rd I was asked to participate in a TV interview with Head of Metropolitan Police officer, Sir Bernard Hogan-Howe which is airing on Sky News TV in the UK. You can find the interview on the Sky News website if you'd like to watch that. The interview was held at Sky TV in London, so whilst I was there I took some photos of Westminster (it has been very hot in the UK lately, walking around London in a suit in 30c heat is horrible!)
These are all with the Nikon D3200 and Sigma 10-20mm.

Whilst it was still hot we headed off to Happisburgh ('Haze borough') beach yesterday. This beach is local to me and is well known for having extremely fast rates of coastal erosion (some of the fastest in the country). We've all seen photos of houses in Happisburgh that have ended up on the beach or in the sea but nothing really prepares you for the shock of actually *seeing* people's homes collapsed on the beach or floating in the sea. You can find out more about Happisburgh online if you are interested.
I didn't want to carry my D-SLR and lenses around so instead I shot these using Dad's Nokia Lumia 930. Shot in DNG (RAW) and processed in Lightroom 6.1. I'm really impressed by the image quality of this smartphone! These are full resolution photos from the Lumia 930 so check them out! I think this goes to show what you can do with today's smartphones that shoot in RAW and software like Lightroom to process them! These files are 18.6MP.
What you see in most of the photos below are remains of old sea defences which were destroyed in storm surges.

Finally, I thought I'd share some street photography in Norwich. I got my new Nikon 50mm f/1.8G lens a few weeks ago and tested it out in the city. Mounted on the D3200 you have a tiny little D-SLR ideal for taking candid shots in the city! This lens is pretty sharp!

Some of you may have been aware that I've also been getting into film photography. I also shot some street scenes of Norwich on film using my Nikon F80 and the Nikon 50mm f/1.4 lens that I am borrowing. I didn't process the film myself, instead I went to a shop in Norwich who scanned it in TIFF format and burned the files to a CD for me. The TIFF scans are 6.3MP (3088x2048) and uncompressed, so pretty good quality and not bad for processing in Lightroom! You can tell the difference between the film scans and the digital files - the colours in the film scans are much more muted (which you can see looking at the other photos I've shot on film here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/jasonbrown2013/sets/72157654899872359)
