1
00:00:06,680 --> 00:00:09,990
Mobile phones are great. They're convenient.
2
00:00:09,990 --> 00:00:12,180
They're always with you in your pocket.
3
00:00:12,180 --> 00:00:15,300
You can just pull them out and take a photo.
4
00:00:15,300 --> 00:00:18,480
But are they so good for food photography?
5
00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:23,400
Personally, I like to take mobile photos of landscapes,
6
00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:25,800
even board trade, but I'm not really happy today.
7
00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:27,690
Food photos with a mobile phone.
8
00:00:27,690 --> 00:00:32,400
Why? The problem with mobile phones is their lenses.
9
00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:34,670
They have wide angle lenses,
10
00:00:34,665 --> 00:00:37,355
which normally create a lot of distortion.
11
00:00:37,350 --> 00:00:41,180
All wide-angle lenses create higher distortion.
12
00:00:41,175 --> 00:00:44,275
Then narrower lenses, for example,
13
00:00:44,270 --> 00:00:50,410
24 millimeter, will always have a bigger distortion than a 100 millimeters, for example.
14
00:00:50,405 --> 00:00:53,455
The problem is that for food photography,
15
00:00:53,450 --> 00:00:56,960
any distortion looks not very nice.
16
00:00:56,960 --> 00:00:59,400
The objects, the props,
17
00:00:59,404 --> 00:01:02,004
the dishes look distorted.
18
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:04,270
And this for me personally,
19
00:01:04,265 --> 00:01:08,435
is really drawback of using these kinds of lenses.
20
00:01:08,435 --> 00:01:11,485
Taking photo with a mobile or a compact camera as well,
21
00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:13,450
because they have similar lenses,
22
00:01:13,445 --> 00:01:19,145
makes your fault be small compared to the environment around.
23
00:01:19,145 --> 00:01:21,865
So basically you take in your frame a lot of
24
00:01:21,860 --> 00:01:24,640
the environment which most cases you don't want to take.
25
00:01:24,635 --> 00:01:28,835
For me, honestly, the only angle that is acceptable for
26
00:01:28,835 --> 00:01:33,395
taking food photography with mobile phone is from above or flatly.
27
00:01:33,395 --> 00:01:38,285
Another shooting angle that you can try with a mobile phone is straight down.
28
00:01:38,285 --> 00:01:40,835
Again, straight down minimizes distortion.
29
00:01:40,835 --> 00:01:47,905
So you can perfectly use it in order to try to make nice photos with your mobile camera.
30
00:01:47,900 --> 00:01:52,550
Another issue with a mobile phone cameras and wide-angle lenses in general,
31
00:01:52,550 --> 00:01:57,950
is that you cannot achieve that good Walker is with a DSLR camera,
32
00:01:57,950 --> 00:01:59,290
with a mirrorless camera,
33
00:01:59,285 --> 00:02:00,835
it is possible in some cases,
34
00:02:00,830 --> 00:02:03,640
especially some of the newest models, mobiles.
35
00:02:03,635 --> 00:02:06,395
But in general, it's much difficult again,
36
00:02:06,395 --> 00:02:11,125
because the wide-angle lenses are non-daily good to create balky.
37
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:13,640
Of course, again, some people might object
38
00:02:13,640 --> 00:02:16,870
that the best ones for bulkier full-frame cameras.
39
00:02:16,865 --> 00:02:22,825
But I can give a lot of examples of particular lenses that create wonderful book,
40
00:02:22,820 --> 00:02:24,500
even in crop frame cameras,
41
00:02:24,500 --> 00:02:28,700
I used to shoot a lot with my 50 millimeters,
42
00:02:28,700 --> 00:02:33,410
1.8, which is a very affordable lens on a crop frame camera,
43
00:02:33,410 --> 00:02:34,640
a very old model.
44
00:02:34,640 --> 00:02:37,210
And it was creating fantastic book here.
45
00:02:37,205 --> 00:02:40,715
Of course, the technology is developing and nowadays,
46
00:02:40,715 --> 00:02:44,615
you can find mobile phones that create really beautiful photos,
47
00:02:44,615 --> 00:02:48,415
even of food, because they have a lot of enhancements.
48
00:02:48,410 --> 00:02:54,040
Their lenses are special even why then go there minimizing distortion and so on.
49
00:02:54,035 --> 00:02:56,795
However, with mobile phone,
50
00:02:56,795 --> 00:02:59,305
you don't learn really shooting.
51
00:02:59,300 --> 00:03:02,150
You don't learn the same way as you learn with the camera.
52
00:03:02,150 --> 00:03:08,260
That's why I absolutely advise you to get the camera even if it's not the newest model,
53
00:03:08,255 --> 00:03:12,005
even if it's not full-frame as we spoke already,
54
00:03:12,005 --> 00:03:16,465
full-frame is totally not necessary for good food photography.
55
00:03:16,460 --> 00:03:18,640
But the camera, in my view,
56
00:03:18,635 --> 00:03:26,825
is a must for someone that wants to deep dive in photography in general.
