1. Turns you into a person professing a serious interest in photography
looking for an excuse to leave your camera at home so you never have to put
down your iPhone.
2. Turns your beloved slippery smart phone into something making a bulge in
your pocket. Won't slip in and out of your pocket so fast. But get caught on
the stitching. You might need to go out and get a Captain Kangaroo jacket.
3, Is having a separate compact camera really such a hassle? Its not like
you are juggling the camera with its battery and sensor in the air all at
the same time. Its all fits in the camera.
4. 4/3's glass or Leica glass does not make the tiny sensor on your smart
phone any bigger. It just makes it more ridiculous.
5. Put a real camera in your other pocket.
6. The sensors on smart phones are so small its near impossible to get the
spec on just how small they are. What is a normal lens for a smart phone
4mm's? If they told you they'd have to kill you.
