    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...

    Camera

    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...

    24MP photos on 15 Pro no longer working on iOS18

    Updated to iOS18 overnight, took some photos earlier and just checked them and they are all 12MP even when the camera is set to 24MP, this is in excellent light. Seems to be a bug in iOS18

    Other Why isn’t Apple pushing the boundaries of camera tech on the Pro?

    You would think one obvious way to differentiate the base and Pro series is to give the Pro a bigger camera sensor, bigger/better lenses, etc. Not just rely on mostly software/computational gimmicks to upsell. Pure laziness to just give the base model the same camera/lenses as last year’s Pro...

    iPhone 16 Pro iPhone 16 Pro 48MP Ultrawide Not that big of an Upgrade?

    Looking at what Apple presented to us, it looks like Apple took the same sized sensor and just made the sensor 48mp. comparing the specs between the 15 Pro and the 16 Pro ultrawides: Both have 1.4um pixel size (quad-binned on the 16 pro), same f/2.2 aperture and same 13mm focal length. Only...

    iPhone 16 Pro Only the main camera on iPhone 16 Pro supports 4K@120fps

    Now that's kind of bummer because you won't be able to switch cameras if you are recording in 120fps. Or maybe if you switch to 5x zoom or ultrawide it will fall back to 60fps. But seriously Apple why? It does make the 120fps feature a lot less useful. Perhaps this is another feature reserved...

    My iPhone Pro’s camera freezes from time to time and the phone restarts endlessly

    My iPhone 11 Pro’s camera freezes from time to time. I tried restarting the phone or recovering it in iTunes. The latter helped but just for a short while. I have also this thing when my iPhone restarts without an end. It shows an Apple logo then turns off and it can last for 8 or more hours. It...

    iPad Pro Things removed from the previous gen

    The new iPad Pro got rid of the Ultra wide camera. This is kind of disappointing, especially because they raised the price AND didn't do anything to the other camera. They could have at least given us a better main camera to make up for it! Edit: They also removed mmWave 5G. Again, kind of...

    iPhone 15 Pro camera (Ultra wide) flickers black on the right side

    Hi everyone. I have a new iPhone 15 Pro and when recording with Ultra Wide (0.5) the video flickers black on the right corner/side. Is this normal behavior or my camera is defective? The issue (as far as I tested) cannot be reproduced in horizontal mode, only vertical. Here's an example:
