Smartphone cameras have gotten so good that many people don't see the need for traditional cameras — and the truth is that for many people there is no need. But devoted cameras have to have some advantages, right?
We matched an iPhone 6 camera against the DSLR Canon 5D Mark II ($3,400 for the body alone) and the point-and-shoot Canon PowerShot SD1400-IS ($244).
We tested the cameras in various situations, including bright sunny day, moving objects, close up, etc. Don't expect techie jargon or focus charts here. We're just considering what looks best.

The point and shoot camera sees the fluorescent lighting more yellow.
