Another iPhone has hit the market and once again Apple has claimed that its camera creates "DSLR quality pictures." I never believe when any cell phone manufacturer makes this claim, so I decided to put it to the test. The iPhone 7 Plus has two cameras on its back: one 12 MP sensor has a wide-angle lens with optical stabilization and excellent ISO performance, and the other has a standard/telephoto lens with poor ISO performance. Our iPhone cost us around $1,000 but we certainly can't claim the camera itself is worth that much. It's one of many included features of this smartphone and therefore we couldn't compare it to a $1,000 DSLR. We decided to compare this phone to a Nikon D300s and a Tamron 17-50mm f/2.8 lens. Both cameras shoot 12 MP files and both of them have a wide to standard "zoom" range. On eBay this kit sells for around $500. Honestly this is still too expensive to be a "fair" comparison because the camera in the iPhone certainly isn't half of its value, but it's what we had available. ....
