My husband gave me the Sony ILCE-6000Y plus an extra lens as a gift. I am not a photographer by any means but I consider it my hobby and I really want to learn how to use this camera.

I did a search for articles comparing the iPhone with the DSLR. To my surprise most of them tend to favor the iPhone. I still believe professional photographers do outstanding jobs compared to the regular person who carries a smart phone all the time.

I decided to make my own comparison. Again, I am not a professional photographer. To make it fair I used the automatic settings on my Sony camera though I know that by being able to manipulate the settings you can take better photos (so just based on that I would say DSLR cameras are better than iPhones, but again I am not a professional). I also left the format as-is for each photo so that you can see how much more can be included in each photo when standing approximately on the same spot (which obviously it can be cropped later if necessary).

I only have a few photos right now, but I will continue to add more as I take them.
