    Haha! Look at those dumb “professional” photographers spending $15k USD on a single 600mm lens that only gives them like 15x zoom. My $1000 phone with 200x zoom will surely beat the crap outta those!

      If it were an actual zoom, at least. I was absolutely delighted when I first learned that some phones do in fact have lenses with a variable focal lenght.

      Having that 2x zoom through actual optics instead of it being a cropped image is fantastic, gotta say. I really want my next phone to have that, so that zooming is actually useful.
