The main camera on the iPhone 13 Pro has an even larger image sensor with an f1.5 aperture, allowing it to capture a lot more light. And more light means better photos.
The telephoto zoom has been bumped from 2.5x to 3x (still lower than Galaxy S21 Ultra's 10x optical zoom.
The super-wide-angle lens has a much wider aperture and improved night mode for better shots in the dark. The super-wide also has a new macro function, letting you capture shots of objects as close as 2 centimeters (a little more than three-quarters of an inch) from the phone.
Video got maybe the biggest update on the iPhone 13 Pro. The 13 Pro's wider apertures and bigger telephoto zooms will already go a long way to improving the overall quality of video you can capture, but the new Cinematic Mode could help add an extra pro touch to your filmmaking.
Cinematic Mode, the camera will dynamically hold focus on a subject's face as the subject moves through the scene. If the person gazes away from the camera, the focus will move too -- just like how focus would be shifted manually on pro cinema cameras. You can also tap to shift focus and tap twice on a face to lock focus on it. But that focus and depth data isn't baked into the video clip -- you can go back and edit the amount of bokeh and the focus points in your video after you've shot it.
Apple ProRes was first introduced by Apple back in 2007. ProRes is a video codec Apple developed that compresses the video file but retains excellent image and color data, allowing for much greater control and quality when it comes to postproduction. It's frequently used for commercials and feature films, but this'll be the first time it's been seen on a mobile device. This feature not only compresses the video size but also retains the original video quality and color. This feature is mainly useful for people who are more into editing software like Final Cut Pro X, Adobe Premiere Pro, and Davinci Resolve. The ProRes video files are slightly bigger in size when compared to H.265 and H.264 files. But when it comes to the image quality of the video, they are way ahead of the video codec that is currently used in iPhone or other smartphones. The ProRes feature on iPhone 13 will not only allow you to record videos in ProRes but also edit them. The 13 Pro will be able to shoot in ProRes at 4K resolution at 30 frames per second.
