Often I hear people compare specs of cameras, lenses, formats, etc to each other. Some people say this matters, some say what only matters is the end result. What do you guys experience when you see a great shot taken on a cheap phone? A mediocre shot from a full-frame or large format camera? Are you surprised? Does a picture's format instantly change your attitude toward the photo and/or the photographer?
Just curious about your thoughts on this.
No
I use my iPhone primarily for pictures and have for a long time
The latest iPhone are amazing
I very seldom talk on phone, never text, game or …..
I have seen books with wonderful reproductions, but have been surprised when seeing originals hanging... Not just the different sizes, but a very different look to the prints...
What you would see on the web would be an even different story...

If one separates a photograph from its medium it becomes something else.
Digital is different, because there is no 'medium.' Binary is not a 'medium' it is an abstraction.
As long as I am moved, inspired, enlightened by an image...I could care less how it came to be.
Digital or Binary is a medium by any definition of the term used in the arts.Quote:
