Hey there

“7 Lenses” of the iPhone 15 Pro explained: what you can do and when to use | 91mobiles.com

“7 Lenses” of the iPhone 15 Pro

Now, what I do not seem to have on my iPhone 15 Pro Max are those 2 camera settings:
12MP ultrawide – Macro
12MP ultrawide – 13mm

How to activate those?
My camera count does come to 6.

Cheers
Howard

Thanks, Cheetah, but there is a hell lot of information. But not just the one, I am looking for. I googled and read many articles prior to creating this very thread.

You don’t need to read it all at once. Take it in steps/strides.

For example, quoted from the first link I posted:]

Take a macro photo or video​

1. Open Camera
   
   on your iPhone, then select Photo or Video mode.
2. Get close to the subject—as close as 2 centimeters. The camera will automatically switch to the Ultra Wide camera.
3. Tap the Shutter button to take a photo or the Record button to start and stop recording video.

That doesn’t seem too difficult, right? And as the opportunity arises, just practice that. When you’re ready/desire, maybe read up on another feature/capability.
