I wouldn’t say I’m a photography purist (I shoot with a Fuji after all), but one thing that continues to draw me to using my mirrorless over all but the very best smartphone cameras is a more natural look to my pictures.

It’s not that smartphones are bad by any stretch of the imagination; some smartphone cameras are absolutely brilliant. But take a closer look, and even the best handsets leave telltale signs of overprocessing; whether it’s oversharpened skin textures from the Pixel’s portrait mode or overly dark shadows in Apple’s HDR algorithm.
