Shot with an Apple iPhone 12. All shots underexposed by half a stop (-0.5)
I've been using an iPhone 12 for a couple of years now. Before that I used an Android Moto-G. But before those I used the first Panasonic Lumix camera which I loved. Leica leased its digital technology to Panasonic for five years before introducing their own digital camera. The iPhone 12 is good for most shots.
I underexpose every shot a half-stop (.5) automatically. I also prefer to "see" a shot in my mind's eye before I start shooting, too, unless it's a football game, parade, or whatever. I don't do much adjusting.
There is no loss of resolution zooming in and out because iPhones use the optical physical lens hardware system to counteract camera shake resulting in sharper, clearer photos and videos. It's a hardware feature, not a digital adjustment of the image.
Other cell phones make a digital adjustment of the image using a digital zoom software feature to enlarge a portion of the existing image, potentially leading to pixelation and loss of detail.
These close-up shots show why a physical lens hardware system is superior to a digital zoon software solution.
