The Astounding Quality of the iPhone 4 Camera

I knew from the first days with my iPhone 4 that I wasn’t going to need a small camera for snaps because of its quality.

Imagine my surprise when I discovered that the Yellowstone image I posted yesterday showed up on Flickr as geotagged. Why? It was an iPhone image.

I ran some noise reduction on the image before posting because of pattern noise in the trees at the upper third of the image but I thought that was from aggressive post processing of shadows. Unusual for the Nikon D300.

Just astounding really.

I'm an MD, PhD Neurologist who left a successful academic career on the Faculty of The Johns Hopkins Medical School to develop new treatments in Biotech and Pharma. I became fascinated with how people actually make decisions based on the science of decision theory and emerging understanding of how the brain works to make decisions. My passion now is this deep explanation of what has been the realm of philosophy, psychology and self help but is now understood as brain function. By understanding our brains, I believe we can become happier, more successful people.
