长期以来佳能EOS Digital Rebel XTi ,一直是Flickr 上用户最广泛使用的相机。1010万像素、APS-C画幅传感器 、9点宽区自动对焦系统加上中档的价位,佳能此款相机在雅虎的相片共享网站如此受欢迎是不难理解的。
除了佳能之外,在Flickr统计显示的图表中,还有另一种相机正不断地显示优势。确切地说,带摄像头的手机,Iphone不断凸显出来。
iphone相机,像素稍微低点只有200万像素,并且不能变焦,但现在已经超越佳能EOSRebel XTi,成为Flickr用户使用最多的相机,这是根据Flickr的Camera Finder图表得出的数据。实际上,洛杉矶时报已经报道过:iphone在一些场合已经超过佳能Rebel XTi,两者为夺榜首而战斗。
那么,这样的发展意味着什么呢?首先,这反映了移动智能手机的强势普及,特别是iphone手机的普及。人人口袋里都有一个数码相机(3GS,摄像 机)。另一方面,直接从你的手机上上传照片到Flickr 上也很容易,而大多数“数码相机”没有连接到3G网络或无Wifi连接就无法做到这一点。
当然,这并不意味着与高质量的佳能Rbel XTi图片相比,人们更喜欢这些低像素的图像。它却标志着世界更加“可移动”,人们能够与所有的朋友分享照片,这正是“移动世界”革命的一部分。

iPhone to Become #1 Camera on Flickr
For the longest time, the Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi has been the most widely used camera on Flickr. With a 10.1 MP Lens, an image sensor vibration cleaning system, 9-point auto focus, and a mid-range price point, it’s easy to see why the Canon camera has been so popular with the photography enthusiasts on Yahoo’s photo-sharing website.But while Canon has dominated, there’s another camera that’s been zipping up the Flickr charts. Actually, camera phone would be more precise, because we’re talking about the iPhone.
That smartphone, with its weak 2 MP camera and its lack of zoom, is now set to overtake Canon Rebel XTi as the #1 camera on FlickrFlickr
. This is according to Flickr’s Camera Finder graphs. Actually, as the LA Times has already caught, the iPhone has already passed the Rebel XTi on a few occasions as the two duke it out for the top spot.
So what does this development mean? First, it’s a reflection of the intense popularity of mobile smartphones and specifically the rise of the iPhone. You always have a camera in your pocket (and with the 3GS, a camcorder too). Just as important is that it’s easy to upload your pictures directly from your mobile phone to your Flickr account. That’s something most digital cameras can’t do, since they aren’t connected to 3G or Wifi connections.
This doesn’t mean people prefer lower quality images over the higher resolution photos that can be captured with cameras of the Rbel XTi’s quality. Instead, it’s a sign that the world is becoming a more mobile place. Being able to get your photos to all of your friends while on-the-go is part of that mobile revolution.
