iPhone Air What is the fusion camera?

For this much more in the know, how does the lens/camera sensor stack up compared to past models? Right now I’m on a 13mini and one reason I want to upgrade is because of the cameras. The mini only does 1x optical. I’m curious how much of a difference a 2x optical with digital zoom+AI magic would work out.

Same main camera on the 17 Pro as 14 Pro. 2X is pretty good overall.

So the sensor is the same on both?

Yes. Same sensor in the 1X camera for 4 years now.

Yes. Same sensor in the 1X camera for 4 years now.

But fusion doesn’t imply sensor. They call the main lens the fusion in all 4 phones. The 17 and air have a different sensor than the pros.
