The Best Camera

I usually carry my Fuji when I leave the house if I don’t have a specific plan, just in case. You never know where you can end up, and having that need to document every day of my life makes it even more serious. I think it has to do with my poor memory.

This Saturday I had to walk the dog of my in-laws –a labrador retriever called Martín– before going out to dinner, and that’s specific enough to leave the camera at home. Fade to black. My new iPhone SE enters the scene. I knew the camera was excellent compared to the old Xperia Z3 and I took it out to snap a few photos.

The quality of the images is not a big deal, I must say. It is a very capable camera in good light, but the image quality degrades very quickly when you enter the realm of darkness. Anyway, I didn’t use the full potential of its camera. Now I know you should use an app with manual settings or at least not push it too much. It’s a little smartphone with little sensor and lens anyway.
