The iPhone 14 Pro handled this very difficult nighttime scene well. It works on all the cameras, but I appreciate it most on the telephoto lens that otherwise doesn't appear to have been changed from the 13 Pro to the 14 Pro. In the latest iPhone 14 generation, Apple's Photonic Engine technology runs Deep Fusion earlier in the image processing pipeline to preserve texture and color better. The telephoto camera captures more detailįor several years, Apple has used an AI-based image analysis technique called Deep Fusion to preserve details and color in dim and dark lighting. Lux, maker of the Halide camera app for iPhones, reports a top ISO of 12,768 for the iPhone 14 Pro's main camera compared with 7,616 on the 13 Pro. In very, very dark situations, I noticed the iPhone 14 Pro cranking up the image sensor ISO, a sensitivity setting. It's more natural looking and less afflicted by noise speckles than the same shot with the iPhone 13 Pro. I'm impressed with the iPhone 14 Pro's dynamic range, capturing bright highlights and deep shadows pretty well in this nighttime shot shot at 12 megapixels with pixel binning technology. I've scrutinized hundreds of photos to compare my iPhone 14 Pro with the iPhone 13 Pro. And competitively, with Samsung offering powerful 10x zoom lenses and Google pioneering computational photography, Apple has to work hard to keep iPhone fans loyal.įortunately, Apple has raised its game too. You might not notice processor speeds or display quality improving from one year to the next, but camera quality shows progress more visibly. The ability to shoot better photos is one of the more obvious ways you can see advancements in the latest iPhone. Mainstream folks should appreciate them, as my colleague Patrick Holland observes in his iPhone 14 Pro review and camera testing, but serious shooters can really benefit. Three highlights in the iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max stand out: the main camera's 48-megapixel resolution better image quality on the main and ultrawide angle cameras so photos look more natural and the improved low-light performance on all three of the rear cameras. This phone's cameras are good for photo enthusiasts, not just for ordinary use. I've been putting my iPhone 14 Pro through its paces, and after a week of shooting and pixel peeping, I'm impressed with the technology improvements. I'm one of those people, shooting professionally some of the time and as a hobbyist the rest. Apple's newest smartphone, which packs a 48-megapixel sensor, delivers significant improvements in image quality. With the iPhone 14 Pro's new cameras, it's a good time to be a serious photographer trying to get the most out of a camera you can tuck in a pocket.
