We know that the iPhone 4 packs a great camera with some of the best HDR effects we've seen to date (even against compact cameras). However one would never considered it a serious competitor to the Canon EOS DSLR range or reach up to the likes of Nikon D90. Well it apparently has done just that, on Flickr.
iPhone 4 soon to become most popular camera on Flickr
The iPhone 4 currently stands as the second most popular camera on Flickr, with its rise happening at a phenomenal rate. It is important to note that it took the Nikon D90 almost three years to reach the top spot, whereas the chart shows the iPhone 4 may take that spot within a month now.DSLRs dominate list: Nikon D90, Canon EOS 5D Mark II, Rebel T1i & XSi
Another interesting point to note which was overlooked by the quick rise of the iPhone 4, is the fact that the other 4 cameras are DSLR. This suggests a strong decline in the interest of compact cameras as technically only the iPhone 4 makes it as a point and shoot camera on the top 5.Once can suggest that consumers are slowly moving towards better quality photos than just portability when it comes to buying a dedicated camera. This is no surprise as most smartphones today have pretty good cameras, defeating the need for a compact.
