I noticed this article regarding winter photography.
https://www.outdoorphotographer.com/tips-techniques/nature-landscapes/tips-for-winter-photography/#
The key areas the writer discusses are:
Exposure: I have a Lumia with full-manual capabilities. The iPhone 5s I have been playing with has no such capability.
Filters: Are there filters for smartphones, or can software filters replace a real filter? Anyone have comparisons?
Focus: Though my Lumia has manual focus option, it is still, on occasion, difficult either way, manual or auto.
Shutter Speed: Glad I have that, but the iPhone doesn't
Cold Weather and Batteries: So frustrating. Maybe stick a toe-warmer to the back of the phone?
Cold Weather and Moisture: I only considered condensation to be a problem if it got on the lenses, inside or out. Never thought about what happens to the electronics. At least its a lot easier to put a smartphone into a self-sealing bag, as the writer suggests, than a DSLR.
Wildlife: Focusing on the eye; that's going to be tough with a smartphone. Or, maybe not. I recall reading somewhere that newer phone cameras can be programmed to focus on the eye.
The article's writer assumes a DSLR. I'd be interested in knowing what tricks and tips and equipment recommendations you all have, particularly with phone cameras and other sport-cameras, like a GoPro.
