The Guardian’s Dan Chung is photographing the entire Olympics using just an iPhone 4S and processing app Snapseed. Though it seems to have taken him a while to find his feet, the results are becoming sensationally good — and with his updates continuing until the end of the games, there’s far more to come.
Go take a look at his work. [Guardian via Verge]
How did he take the photo underwater with an iPhone?
I guess he threw in to the pool?? ;-)
Lifeproof case?
Some competition pools have viewing windows under the stadiums. Could possibly be that. Or perhaps he coined an Olympian to take the shot during a turn.
He obviously ha a telephoto lense attachment too, so not just an iPhone really.
The results are quite decent but I wouldn't be hanging up my DSLR just yet.
Underwater shot is from the pool viewing window (the phone isn't in the water)
I would think that he would be trying to take advantage of the smaller physical size (than a DSLR) to get shots/perspectives that the others (Pro DSLR users) can't. Doesn't appear that way. What a waste of time. Just comes across as lazy.
+1
I just looked at his portfolio of shots.......
I can't see a single shot you need an iPhone size for that wouldn't be made by a DSLR or Rangefinder.
He's just being cheap with processing and trying the "first on web scoop" method.
Shame really some of them would be great with the right shutter speed , or just a "CAMERA"
Pffft...yeah, right.
