Apple iPhone 15 Pro Max users will finally get a chance to use a periscope lens giving the device the ability to deliver 5x optical zoom.
Speaking of unsteady hands, in an interview machine translated from French, Apple's VP of camera software engineering Jon McCormack said that Apple limited the Tetraprism lens to 5x optical zoom due to stabilization at that focal length."The 5x zoom is something that we can stabilize incredibly well. If you look at the 10x zoom, unless you have the steadiest hands in the world or a tripod, it's really difficult to use.
model. Samsung has offered 10x optical zoom on its top-of-the-line flagship phones since the Galaxy S21 Ultra back in 2021., by pinching out on the screen, you can get the device to take photos or videos at 25x using digital zoom. And that means that once you pass 5x, the quality of the photo or video will decline.
Most of the images we snapped using the 5x optical zoom showed good detail without being oversharpened. A good examples of this was the photo of the brick building as the building itself, the sign on the building, and the trees in the background were sharp. Colors were realistic and not overly saturated Photos taken at the same time using the 5x optical zoom on the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra were not as sharp in areas although the colors were ever so slightly brighter.
The iPhone has developed a reputation for taking the best video recordings by a smartphone and nothing has changed in this department. Shooting in ProRes results in smooth video with good detail and having the 5x optical zoom to use on thedoes make a difference when it comes to video recording a building that is far away, or a person who is in the distance.Next year, we could see Apple bring the Tetraprism lens to the iPhone 16 Pro along with the iPhone 16 Pro Max.
