I think it started before front-facing camera lenses were a thing.
P sure it’s just front camera quality > selfie camera + mirror allows for full body
Yeah. Selfie cam's wide angle is not flattering. Usually professional portraits are shot with some good range. For good reason.
Given the nature of selfies and of mirrors how could it be otherwise?
a Quora poster says "Some of the very first selfies were shot in mirrors with back cameras, because the front camera was no good, or the phone didn’t have a front camera at all. This still goes on, to show off the device that the shooter is using, or just to get a wider image."
It’s the logical progression of staring at oneself in the mirror. For eternity
Because the feedback was immediate. Because it's much easier than to set up a phone with the camera framing where they want to be standing, then set a timer?
