    Don’t you enjoy photos of blurry gray splots with AI oversharpened edges who are supposed to be birds or squirrels?

    Despite all the marketing fluff, phone cameras make small but steady advances. I bet you’d make a somewhat acceptable photo at this 200x zoom level, if you shine a pair of 500 watt floodlights at your scene, and put your phone on a tripod.

      put your phone on a tripod.

      My phone has a x10 zoom option that is barely usable without at least resting it on a surface, I can’t imagine trying to take an even half decent photo at x200…

        AI will fix that. The photo picture might not have anything to do with what’s in front of the lens, but at least it will be pretty.

          I mean if you’re not looking for an end result where you actually have a photo of the thing in front of you to look back at/show others, then yeah, I guess that’ll work lol
