Even though I don't use the P2 for photography very often (I prefer my DSLR for that), I decided to try and capture the sunset.
Focus was a bit off (that is the one thing I have not found a good workflow for, since you can't really check what is in focus) but other than that, the P2 delivered.

Great shot. Seems as if it wasn't even in the air...

Yes. Just a bit of reflection in the lens at the bottom, but still

And notice the cloned spot in the top center part (in the clouds).
There was a nasty green flare (unfortunately the iPhone's lens does this all the time when shooting into the sun)

In fact, I downloaded Adobe PS Express for my iPhone just to remove (most of) it.

Everything here is Android. We've never had iPhones

If it was not for my work, it would probably be the same here.
Although I have to say the iPhone SE has been a 'cheap' (like almost the same to a mid range Android) option to enjoy the ecosystem.

Both are great shots, love how the rays of the sun are reflected in the photos. I would be very happy to get such a photo with the Pocket 2 (or with any camera really).

Great shot, given the small sensor size, I think the OP2 does really well

First one is a DNG from the P2.
I only forgot to focus to infinity.
Other than that, I think it is a nice shot

How does one actually focus to infinity on the Pocket 2? I have thought that unless using tha AFC setting, you'd have to lock to some certain point or object...

Just tap on somewhere in the distance. It (most of the time) focusses to infinity.
I wish it had a slightly more sophisticated focus control mechanism. (like focus to infinity, fixed focus etc.)

Okay, will bear that in mind. Thanks for the tip!

And yeah, having more focusing options wouldn't certainly hurt.

One downside of the small screen.
But since it means I can put it in my pocket, I'm ok with it.
