Pentax Q
Quote from Kieran Coughlan on March 14, 2022, 4:13 pmQuote from HeggenDazs on March 2, 2022, 2:14 amA couple things I'd say. The Q still has more resolving power than your run of the mill phone. Well, at least it's better than my iPhone 13 Pro. The Q can make some great bokeh, color and has pretty decent dynamic range. I feel 100x more confident in the shots that would come out of this camera than my iPhone. Plus, I just really like the experience of shooting a camera that's got a smaller footprint than an iPhone 4 (not counting depth, of course)
It's funny reading this, here in Manila just before Christmas I was with my girlfriend picking out a new phone. I had my Pentax Q with Standard Prime 01 in my bag. I took out my Q and started taking pictures of the display in front of us. I was surprised to see that the image on the Q was better than the 13 Pro. The assistant didn't mind me taking photos but did ask me to stop showing some other customers the results I was getting on the Q in comparison to the latest iPhone 😉
Cool little camera that with the Telephoto Zoom 08, plus the MX-1 and the GR III they're what I refer to as my street squad cameras, great discreetness and versatility between those 3

Here's a shot I took out the window at 75mph. I wasn't driving, don't worry!
