PetaPixel: The Apple iPhone 16 Pro / Pro Max Review for Photographers
The Apple iPhone 16 Pro favors hardware upgrades over AI imagery. The new camera controls are welcome but is the image quality any better?
Short of getting a custom case designed for photography, most people will instead struggle with the inherent flatness of a smartphone and learn how to push buttons effectively without dropping the device. The Camera Control button is new on the iPhone 16 series and it turns out to be a very useful feature.Thanks to the faster A18 processor, the shutter lag is negligible and I found the response time to be much more predictable than before even when shooting RAW photos rapidly. Still has that weird ghosting in the corner though.The black and white filters are nice to use, and I can access them quickly through the touch screen now.The portrait mode has been tweaked and I noticed slight improvements to the subtlety of the depth maps and how accurately they separate hair from the background.
