Unsplash vs. iPhone
The photo I downloaded from Unsplash was clearly better than the one I captured. The photo from Unsplash has a subtle background and lighting to highlight certain areas of the cat’s fur. Compared to the image I captured, the background is very busy and takes your eyes off of the calico cat. The image I captured also has a more grainy look. Both picture emphasize the fluff to their fur, but the Unsplash image is definitely captured in depth.
3D Object
For 3D image, I captured an image of a flat candle lid with an iPhone and I also scanned the image into my computer using an iPhone. The difference is apparent between the two images. The scanned image is more vibrant and very detailed as you zoom in. The iPhone photo is not as emphasized and has a glare. When you zoom in, the image is not as “crisp” as the scanned image.
Drawing Image
I scanned in and captured a drawing image with an iPhone. Notice, the drawing that was scanned in, is highly exposed compared to the iPhone image. The exposure does hide some of the imperfections of the drawing (erase marks and smudging). The scanned image is a better representation of the drawing vs. the iPhone photo.
Newspaper
Taking photos of the newspaper, as you can see the iPhone photo has more of a shadow hovering over the image whereas the scanned image does as well, but not as much. The scanned image is personally easier to read than the iPhone image since it has more exposure, making it brighter.
