    iPhone 17 Pro What's 'Pro-fusion camera system'

    Hi On the 'compare specs' page, comparing my current 15 pro and the 17 pro, I'm not clear what the difference is. What is a 'fusion' camera system. Does this mean the camera takes data from all three lenses at once or something. The marketing would suggest that there are additional advantages...

    iPhone Air My Thoughts on the iPhone Air as a Long-time Pro-model User + Video Editor.

    I've been a Pro-model iPhone user since the iPhone 11 Pro Max, plus their predecessors - the iPhone X and Xs. Even before that, I've been using my iPhone as my primary video camera. As the iPhone camera gets better, I tend not to use a separate camcorder. The 17 Pro and Pro Max are Pro as...

    where is the camera thats shooting the event

    We cant see the camera thats shooting the beginning of the Apple event. Im talking about the first scene, at Tim Cook's speech when he is standing right at the front door of Apple Headquarters in Cupertino. The camera should be visible in the glass reflections of the entrance... but no, nothing...

    iPhone 15/Plus Night mode: Adobe Indigo VS Apple Camera

    I just wanted to share some comparisons between the adobe app Project Indigo and the iOS native camera. using a MagSafe tripod to keep it steady so both apps could use the longest exposure time. I was the most surprised with the pic that shows the yellow cart, both on autofocus. I tried to tap...

    Other Are there any main camera changes in 17 Pro compared to 16/15/14 Pros?

    Is it really just the telephoto and front camera they changed? Not even lens changes? Really lazy if so. Seems like same sensor since the quad-pixel size (2.44µm) hasn’t changed. From their tech specs page: 14 Pro: 48MP Main: 24 mm, ƒ/1.78 aperture, second-generation sensor-shift optical image...

    Perplexed by potential camera lens over correction

    Hi all, I've bought a new mug for my wintery hot chocolates, and went to send a quick snap to a friend who loves mugs, but there's a quirk; the mug I have has a much wider base than top meaning it has angled sides, but the iPhone 16 Pro Max camera makes the sides straight up and down. Image...

    Other Predict the biggest letdown for iPhone 17 Air. Camera or battery life?

    Personally it’s the camera, because nowadays, you can charge your phone at a lot of places. However, the single camera is going to be a deal breaker for me, no telephoto means bad zoom, 4/5 pictures I take are zoomed. Otherwise, I love the thinner device and lighter form factor. What about you?

    Resolved Serious question… Sony camera (a6400&18-135) vs upcoming iPhone

    Hi! New to the forum and posting for the first time, feeling this post will collect lots of laugher emojis but I am ready😄 I know question is quite silly but still want to ask it.

    Other iPhone 17 Pro / Pro Max / Air rumoured designs and LiDAR & Flash issues

    Hi all, Thought I'd ask here as I often come across some seemingly knowledgeable posters. With the recent leaks for the 17 line's migration of the flash and LiDAR scanners, I have frequently seen people mention that this design would be unlikely because it would cause parallax issues with...

    Recommendations for an OSX-friendly NVR?

    I've had an Amcrest NVR (i.e., it uses cameras wired to a dedicated DVR for both power and connectivity) for some years. I prefer having local recording over cloud based. Problem is, Amcrest hasn't updated their viewing software in >4 years, and even what they have is just a beta, and they have...

    iPad mini iPad mini camera equivalents

    Hi there, With regard to the new iPad mini, does anyone know what the equivalent front and rear cameras are from other devices? I ask because I know that the new MacBook Pros received new 12MP FaceTime sensors, but these are actually improved over the Studio Display 12MP camera - so it’s not...

    iPhone 14 Pro Max 14 pro max spots on camera sensor (2nd repair). How come?

    Hi photographers, My iPhone 14 Pro Max is two years old now. The 3x lens shows 4 spots, see pics. The same thing happened when the unit was one year old. Both times Apple fixed it by replacing the entire camera module, free of charge. That is nice, but if it happens twice it can happen again...

    I have to reboot my new iPhone 16 pro every new day I want to use the camera. I press on the camera button. It shows me when I’m taking a picture of it and goes blank. Is anyone else experiencing anything similar?

    iPhone 16 Pro Max Issues with ProRAW 48 and stock camera app

    When I got the 15 Pro Max last year I posted a thread about the inferior quality of ProRAW 48 using the stock app comparing to 14 Pro Max from 2022. At that time I was convinced that it was a bug that Apple would solve quickly. They didn't. I was hoping for 16 Pro Max to perform better in this...

    iPhone 16 Pro Max won't stop switching cameras in macro mode - even after restore

    Hey folks, I've been using the phone for the last few days and it's been fine. Today I opened the camera app and I was going to do some macro shots and it started constantly switching between the macro cameras and freezing for a few seconds during the transition (I don't know if that normal or...

    iPhone 16/Plus iPhone 16 fusion lens 2x zoom

    For anybody who bought the iPhone 16 base model, can you comment on how well the 2X zoom on the new fusion lens works because Apple claims it is Optical. I am mostly interested to see the video quality and 1080p is enough for me when zoomed in Thx

    iPhone 16 Pro Camera control options

    Maybe I’m just not knowledgeable enough about cameras…but not understanding why there are two ‘zoom’ options in camera control. One is basically a slider, all the way to 25x, labeled ‘zoom’. The other is labeled ‘camera’ and has pre-set options. I presume the pre-set options tie to the 3...
