The iPhone X and XS were already good enough for me to walk around and shoot Apple's event demo room. I shot some test footage on the new phones, and was curious about the extra processing stabilization. ![]() I already loved the iPhone's video functions. More stabilized video, and better overall video The iPhone XR's photo gets the smear treatment from its noise reduction. You can also see how the iPhone 11's Deep Fusion minimizes image noise in the wall behind the phone. (Also, holy heck, they still make pay phones!) Notice the text and scratches on the phone in the photo taken with the iPhone 11 compared with the one taken with the XR. The lighting was dim but didn't trigger the iPhone 11's Night Mode. Overall, your photos will just look better without any extra effort from you.īelow are photos of a public phone in a BART station. There's the improved sharpness and focus from the phone's new main camera. Keep in mind that Deep Fusion processing isn't the only thing that improves photos from the iPhone 11. The differences between an iPhone 11 photo using Deep Fusion and one from the XR without the new process are subtle. But unlike Smart HDR, Deep Fusion does an analysis and optimizes things on a pixel level to make details pop, capture less image noise and improve brightness. Like Smart HDR, it takes multiple images and merges them together. The lighting is bright enough for you to see, but nothing like being outside on a sunny day. It's best to think of medium light as lighting inside a room with no natural light, or an office where your desk is far away from the windows. The iPhone 11's new Deep Fusion processing shines under a medium amount of light. See all photos Deep Fusion, aka 'sweater mode' All the phones get an expanded-view viewfinder that now previews what's outside the shot, which can help you know when to use the ultrawide lens. The iPhone 11 gets an improved ultrawide-angle Portrait mode that can work with close-ups of your pets and other things. Apple promises a few extra benefits here. Ultrawide cameras are another new trend across phone cameras. Without a doubt, it can make for stunning shots. Apple even put a cool zoom effect to transition between lenses. In fact, during a recording you can switch between cameras. Best of all, you can use the ultrawide lens when shooting video. I immediately found angles on my subjects that made them look larger than life. It won't be great in every situation, but it can be equal parts handy, like when shooting in smaller spaces, and artistic, adding drama to a mundane scene.Īpple balanced the distortion so there's a little (which you want for that ultrawide look) but it's not horrible. It's obviously different and really changes the way you shoot. If the main wide camera is like a business suit and the "tele" lens is a sporty blazer, then the ultrawide is the equivalent of a Hawaiian shirt. The newest camera has an ultrawide 13mm equivalent lens that is just a plain fun to use. Scott Stein/CNET Ultrawide angle = drama camera Frame the shots right, and the ultrawide-angle camera can do fun things.
