The specs for the new iPhone 8 Plus’ camera sound enticing — it’s one of the most highly touted improvements on the phone.
But when I was given the chance to compare the new iPhone’s camera to the $9,000 Hasselblad X1D digital medium-format camera, I couldn’t say no.

I wanted to answer the question: when it comes to photographing your next vacation, is it worth investing in one of the best new cameras on the market, or should you stick with your iPhone?
