Reply To: What’s Your Favourite Camera to Shoot With and Why?

[Mariluz]

In my case, as a smartphone filmmaker, I have worked with different smartphone cameras.

Back in 2020 I worked with a relatively low cost phone: Blu G6. This phone was very resilient with temperature and even water😆 (I recorded many times under rain).

In regards of the video quality is nothing compared with high end smartphones, but was very decent and it had nice options for color correction in its app by default.

Now I’m working with an iPhone 10 and also had the opportunity to use the iPhone 13. Both are excellent. Recordings go smooth and I feel confident with the results after shooting sessions.

In my context (Colombia) is quite dangerous to go out with a professional camera, also the prices are too high and one of my focus as filmmaker is to bring opportunities and tools in places and communities that otherwise would not have the option to make a movie. That’s why smartphone cameras widen, a bit more, the options for us creators of the global south.
