I thought I’d have a bit of fun!
Last time I looked at megapixels and how they really affect our photography.
So I thought this time I’d see if you can tell which photo was taken with which camera?
There are 3 photos below:
- 1 taken on a 5mp camera phone
- 1 taken on a very old budget 5mp point and shoot camera
- 1 taken on a 12mp 450d DSLR camera
Now we have 3 photos taken on 3 different types of camera that all have different sizes and quality of image sensors in them. So if I was to print the images out, then you would know immediately which is which because of the quality and print size (check the megapixels post) of the image.
But when they are on the internet like this and all set at the same size (500 pixels wide), then it levels the playing field a bit and it becomes a lot harder I think to tell the difference.
So take a look below and see if you can guess right – should be fun! Please leave your answers in the comments below…
I purposely chose images that have had very little post processing, so they’re pretty much out of the camera!
I look forward to seeing what you think, and I’ll post the answers in the comments soon….
