I would say absolutely, 100,000% YES.   The smart phone has brought a camera to every single person's pocket without the need to carry anything extra or wait to get photos developed. For the opportunist it is a godsend, being able to grab photos at any moment.

It, alongside social media have also dramatically changed accessibility of the material we love to see - just do a google search of 'drunk pee' and you'll find hundreds of images, snapped by friends as a laugh on a drunken night out.

The times are coming now too where professional production can take advantage - I'm a photographer and the image editing capabilities in the new Apple OS on my phone pretty much match the basic tools on my desktop when I'm post processing images - highlights, shadows, colour temperature, vibrance etc.  Last night in the UK the Gadget Show did a comparison of three smartphone video capabilities, with a mainstream TV channel whose news presenter already films all of her stories on an iPhone, before producing and editing them for broadcast.

So in summary - yes!

Yes, totally agree with your comments. I'm amazed at the quality of images and films in 4K and HD...what next!? It seems we have come a long way since 8mm film, and projectors.

I have a question. Basically do you think the smart phone has revolutionised the production and consumption of Pornography? I ask this because I feel that companies like Samsung and Apple seem to be making excellent compact cameras that you can also make calls on. 

I would definitely say yes. The quality of the images you can take with a smartphone is amazing and certainly adds to producing porn.

We have smartphones with three or four cameras which mimic the human eye in being able to separate the subject from the background and then being able to adjust focus and the like after the event.  One next step could be using say three separate but linked cameras to capture a subject from all sides and then processing to create a true 3D picture or movie - then project it holographically?

We have also made images and videos much cheaper to make.  You can video someone on your smart phone and it essentially costs you nothing.

Back when I was using 8mm movie film, the unexposed film and processing cost seven dollars per minute.  At the time,  you could hire a private helicopter and pilot for only three dollars per minute.   You needed to be a bit of a geeky enthusiast with money to burn before you would use a movie camera at all.  Now anyone can do it.
