Oh boy, after watching several big-name YT reviewers blab about the 14 Pro camera while providing NO examples of human skin close up, I am super grateful to Jared for doing the work and giving us the real goods. (Age 80, 56 years in photography, now pretty certain I'll swap the 13 Pro Max for a 14 Pro.) Thank you.
@@Leo23XR yo man I just came here to say that you should never give up. I’ve been where you are and I know it sucks but trust me there is no better sense of satisfaction then knowing you came back from it to a better place. You gotta talk to some people you trust bro and build a team of people around that care and love you. Life is too short for feeling down and out (trust me I know) so get back out there and find something you love. Try new things find you passion and most of find who you really are. Even his starting out by doing some exercise like going for a walk, run or swim helps your mood so much and it honestly makes your day so much more enjoyable. I hope I’ve helped just a tiny bit and please please don’t give in, you’ve got so much life left to live, enjoy and experience. I don’t know you person but I really hope you can pull through and climb out of the hole your in because when you do you will feel unstoppable.
@@Leo23XR Hey....just been through some rough spots myself...I'm in my 50's. But I went through some tough things in my 20's and 30's. Mostly getting rejected by girls, then I lost a business in my 40's and thought I was the world's biggest loser and had to move in with my parents. What I do, as Claran suggested, is find something to take your mind off your situation, whatever it is. I used to run in the rain and that helped with depression a lot for some reason. Also, I sometimes go back and visit old friends or even go through my old photos I had when I was younger. It helps me realize that I'm not my problems, and that there's more to me than the stuff I'm going through. Sometimes I wonder how I was so depressed when I was younger, I was thinner, better looking, healthier and lots more hair than now...but at whatever age you're at, sometimes your problems seems so huge and it's hard to know what your future is going to be.....I get it...totally. I'm going through some stuff now. But I'm just like, F it....If you want to read some stuff you might find kind of weird but helpful, I can offer some suggestions. Just let me know. The main thing, as Claran says, it to find something that gets you out of your head.....you need something so you stop thinking about whatever it is you're going through. Go out and do something physical with friends, go visit a new city, go to an amusement park...whatever you do, don't just sit home and keep thinking. I was kind of dragged through the mud by this super hot girl when I was 38......that really messed me up....but I wish I could go back to that age now....but that's another story, lol....hang in there. Force yourself to get out there and do something...anything...to get out of your head.
@@Leo23XR not sure why exactly your insulting me. I was sincerely hoping my comment would be beneficial to you. Anyhow, no offense taken. Hope you do well
I have the 13 Pro and on a crisp sunny day for average shot at around 24mm it's really tough to beat. But when you add in trying to capture, something at high speed, low speed, really good background blur, ligh trails, needing a good zoom etc.. they have a ways to go...
@@froknowsphoto BTW Jared, I took you up on your recommendations for Allen’s Camera - they have been awesome! I bought my Sony a7 IV from them and three iTunes over the fast few months - all arrived the day after I ordered, nicely packaged and overall, they are great and it feels good to be supporting “a little guy” in a world where it’s harder and harder to do so.
Was just gonna write much the same comment. I just picked up a 13 Pro myself and sure, a couple of perfect conditions photos were fine - not great, but fine, but anything else they look just as bad as any other phone photos. I'm glad I didn't spring for the 14 Pro.
You did the best review of the iPhone 14 Pro's cameras. Most objective of all reviews that I have watched so far, and this is saying something as I have watched more than 30 tech reviewers. Kudos, Jared!
Upgraded my phone and got my first “pro” iPhone on Friday, and I hate to say it, but these new cameras are pretty amazing. For a quick camera you can pull out in really any situation, the picture quality and portrait modes are so advanced. My iPhone rivals my big camera for wide angle shots, it’s almost not fair.
Portrait mode in cameras is still lacking. When I see an iphone shot wtih portrait mode, I can instantly tell due to the fall off of bokeh and in focus due to it being software manipulated. The iPhone we carry in our pockets is an amazing tool to capture photos, however not this one, or will one in the coming years replace what a mirrorless/dslr can achieve.
When you switch to portrait mode, you can also select which lens you want to use. The default just switches it to the 2x lens. If you press the 2x, you can go back to 1x
I already wondered what happened to potrait mode after switching to the iPhone 14 Pro. Turned out, portrait mode was set to 3x lens. Thanks for this tip!
Hi Jared! I thank you from Argentina for this content. Being an amateur photographer I’ve learnt a lot off you. And of course thanks for your “English”. You speak such a good English!!! It’s a pleasure from a not native speaking person to listen to you!
Definitely phone cameras have replaced the point and shoot market. But there's no way that i'm going to replace my D800 and D4 for work with a phone camera, unless phone companies are able to put a FX sensor, hot shoe for strobes and lens adapters on them. I use my 13 pro max as my walk around camera and I'm impressed with with.
There is a reason most point and shoot cameras disappeared, camera phones are pretty solid. And there is a reason "real" cameras still exist for more demanding users. Telephoto and action are still where a dedicated camera shine over a phone
Definitely agree, I've realized I keep my telephoto lenses on my bodies more often because it separates my photography more apart from what most people can do with their phones. Also because I found myself using my phone for wide shots so I don't have to swap lenses for establishing shots, but also I'm no professional and mainly post to the socials.
@@alexklein455 thank you! people think portrait mode is "good"??? it looks like someone poorly masked the subject and dropped the clarity. thats fine for what it is but dont try to compare it to a portrait taken with a real camera.
I have both the A1 with latest gm glsss and the iPhonePM and I can say for sure that that the iPhone 14PM impressed me, but when when I did a side by side comparison against by Sony A1, it was no comparison, iPhone is good, but still not quite there. I gotta say the biggest difference imo was probably the lens flare which is more the lens (24-70mm gm ii) than the camera so again the lens is just as important as the body and I think many people often forget how important the lens is
My S22 Ultra blew me away a bit when I shot a few stills of the Manhattan skyline from 11miles away up in the Bronx. It also does portraits pretty nicely but I think Iphone just has the edge in that department.
I always take my 11 Pro iPhone with me and take photos to compare against my D7200. I’m always astonished by the detailed clarity of landscape photos. ‘I’m purchasing the 14Pro and heading to Yellowstone this Winter and Christmas gifting myself the Z9.
Interesting video, however modern phones rely heavily in stacking images to improve SNR and then get cleaner images, more DR, etc. I imagine shooting things in motion will deliver a different story (even in good light).
While a phone that costs about 1/5 of a pro camera is still pricey, to get the results that you do in a format that is 'always with you' means it's likely the best camera that most people will use, most of the time.
Spot on. Same thing is taught in the police academy about tiny backup/off-duty pistols. Is it as capable as your full-size duty weapon? No. But the little gun you have with you is a lot better than the better one that is home in your safe.
As a grandmother of 2 little girls I find I am using my phone camera more and more and my Nikon camera less. The portrait setting on the phone camera is wonderful for shooting outdoors. For indoor birthday parties, Christmas morning etc. I still depend on my Nikon. Thanks for your comparison. I know that I will now upgrade my iPhone. I have made a very conscious effort to develop the photos from the iPhone just as I do from the Nikon. Thank you for the pointer to move in and don’t crop with the iPhone. Great video.
I think it's crazy impressive how well the phone cameras have gotten. Like you said, side by side, it'd be near impossible to tell. At the end of the day, it's the user/photographer that creates the style of photos they want. It's interesting to see how well phone cameras have gotten. Has it killed the "point and shoot" cameras? Haha, was great to see you go in depth between the 3 images from the 3 cameras.
Agree. Smartphones have really just become cameras with the ability to run apps and talk to other people. The hardware has become rather impressive over time, but a lot of the magic equally happens in software these days (think picture profiles - such a "portrait mode"). Even on full-frame bodies, firmware is doing 'something' for optimization one way or another.
I remember when phone cameras were 1.2 megapixels and I still remember when they only had a back facing camera and a lot of phones back to have a little mirror to take a picture of yourself. And I also remember in like 2008 if you took a video it was less than 240p. And you can only record maybe 15 seconds
@@leestrickland I think honestly you could probably make a successful TH-cam channel or do other things like house tours with a iPhone 14 promax. And nobody's going to question if it's shot on a camera or a phone cuz the cameras on phones are so good nowadays if someone didn't tell you it was shot on the phone sometimes you wouldn't even know
It's impossible to tell if you take shots that the phones are great at. Wide angle, landscape and low speed settings you won't be able to tell much difference. If you want depth of field or fast shutter speeds or actual zoom the phones mostly still suck. So ofc if you do a test where it doesn't matter you won't be able to tell the difference, you could get the same images on a 15 year old point and shoot.
Just for full disclosure the Iphone 14 Pro has a 48 Mpx sensor but produces 12 Mpx images. It uses pixel binning (combining 4 pixels from the sensor for 1 pixel output).
Looks like 48 megapixels to me. Where are you getting that information? The information I have directly from apple at our in person meeting is it’s a 48 megapixel sensor.
@@froknowsphoto It's a 48MP 'quad Bayer' sensor not nearly the same thing as a normal 48MP camera sensor - 4 pixels from the sensor are combined into 1 pixel of output - that is why the standard Jpegs are 4000x3000 pixels (12MP). For the pro-raw files (48MP) it is still either pixel binning then doing a similar thing that Olympus and Panasoinc do to create Hi-Res files - it re-combines multiple 4x12MP images to form a 48MP pro raw file or sends the light information only to combine for a 48MP file - there is only 12MP of colour information physically possible. For an explanation see the DP review explanation th-cam.com/video/Xry-V-fkOAI/w-d-xo.html
@@froknowsphoto To further explain the quad bayer sensor and how it works - you only ever really get 12MP for all images or a 48MP "sort of" image. The phone uses a quad bayer filter, instead of the RGB filter covering one pixel at a time it covers 4 at a time (i.e the red filter covers 4, the green 4 and the blue 4 pixels), it then combines the information from the 4 pixels under that part of the filter array to provide 1 pixel of output as an image (hence why 48MP produce 12MP of actual output), while the 4 pixels under say the green part of the filter can register different amounts of light they only interpret 1 colour that's why it's not nearly the same as a 48MP camera sensor. OK so how come I get a 48MP raw file? Well instead of combining the 4 pixels under a color it registers them separately - you can get a variation in light but the smallest unit of variation in colour is still the 4 pixels. So you end up with a "sort of" 48MP image - 48MP of light variation but only 12MP of colour.
Computational photography is pretty amazing, and the raw images of stationary, predictable things is also really good. I think a next step would be to have presets like “real” cameras have so you can quickly swap between modes instead of digging through menus.
For most people and most uses, the newer iPhones are more than good enough. Portrait mode on my 13 Pro is very good. Travel photography is ideal for the iPhone. My iPhone doesn’t replace my cameras but I’m happy to shoot with it and and I’ve gotten good results so far.
Since this 48mp sensor is so new, I’d like to see a direct comparison of the noise in low light. Iso 6400 “light” compared to not only the cameras here but also of the iPhone 13’s 12mp. I expect some extra noise, but how bad is it going to be?
End of the day as i was once told a phone is a Phone and a camera is a camera! Both have their own jobs to do, and it all depends how you feel for photo taking. Some are happy with what a phone can produce within a box so to speak. Whereas like me you can beat the adaptability of a camera for all situations and be in control rather than let something do it for you
While I think it's great to show the strengths of phone cameras, to remind us what they're capable of, I wish more people also showed their weaknesses. Although WE know how phones do in low light or when trying to zoom in to things at a distance, or photographing fast moving action, an average person stumbling across this, or other videos about phones, might not. That's not to speak down on Jared's video, it was really good. But whenever you look for phone vs camera videos on TH-cam, its always doing landscapes or wide portriats, and stuff that most phones are good at. I'm just waiting for someone to add sports and wildlife in low light to the comparison videos
that's because they aren't capable of the rest and I try and show that in the Real World Reviews. I even shot a concert with the 11 a few years ago and made it work. But that's because I understand what goes into capturing an image. But of course, I can't go shoot a baseball game.
Interesting findings, Fro. To the readers, appears the megapixels on a small phone camera provide the same” quality “ as the megapixels on a medium format digital camera or a full frame digital camera. Agree? Or are we talking apples to apples or apples to oranges?
Android user here. I never even considered using a phone for photography so please forgive my ignorance. My question is could the iPhone use a flashgun, by any chance? I saw a hot shoe on the phone holder in the video, so it got my mind going. Would you consider making a comparison between these cameras and an iPhone using flashguns on cameras and internal flash on iPhone? That would I am sure give us a complete picture of the situation with iPhone use for professional photography.
Great review.. The technology in phones has come so far.. Mine arrives tomorrow! Will definitely be a part of my work flow and projects in the future. Keep up the good work!
Just a correction @10:12: the sensor size has no effect on the aperture or bokeh. If you shoot from the same distance at the same aperture and focal length, the depth of field is going to be the same, no matter the size of the sensor that's capturing it. The reason the iPhone Image looks different at f/1.8 is that it's shot at 6.86mm whereas the other ones are at 24mm.
This is technically true, but practically the consequence is that with a smaller sensor you will get less background blur, precisely because in order to frame your shot in the same way (same angle of view / subject composition), you will be forced to use a different focal length.
If your photos are of still subjects, taken in bright/good lighting, with a very limited selection of normal focal lengths, you don't crop, and you don't care about camera ergonomics, storage options, or bokeh, then a modern phone camera can do just fine. The areas where a dedicated camera really sets itself apart are in everything else.
Thanks for the video - I wound up having to use the 14 Pro Max to shoot my son’s peewee soccer game instead of my Z7 w/70-200 2.8. I got some great shots, to be sure, but your observations about needing to be close to your subject were exactly what I experienced on a crystal-clear Saturday morning. Where I really missed it was in action shots far from where I was sitting - it was similar to the crop test early in the video which really showed the limits of the sensor size. Thanks again for your efforts - you are an absolute joy.
09:40 or... just turn the slider below "Apple ProRAW" down, from the default 100, eh? Simple enough, shown in tens of videos including Apple's own since the premiere of ProRAW years ago and allows you to get just the amount of computational magic you want without losing all of it by hitting 'Reset'. Otherwise you can get a 3rd party pro photo app, any of them, and choose RAW instead of ProRAW, save you the hassle.
Thank you for doing this. My iPhone 14 pro max is on the way and I was wondering how they would compare. Unfortunately I can’t afford a Z9 or A1 but I am enjoying my Z50 and it sounds like I will enjoy the new iPhone when it arrives as well.
@@dicekolev5360 I have a z50 - a great camera but I am choosing not to spend $6k on a top camera plus a couple of thousand more for great lenses. $400 for a new iPhone (with my trade in) is quite a different expense. I have and use the phone all day every day. A great camera would probably only be used once a week.
What happened to the "I shoot raw" movement ? Computational bokeh works better right? I believe its one of the few proper "dslr/smartphone camera comparisons" on youtube... Nice one! We would like to see more in depth comparisons of small vs bigger sensor sizes.
IMO dedicated cameras shine when using them with wide aperture lenses like 1.4 or 1.2 for portraits or low light photography, or telephoto lenses for portraits (70-200) or wildlife (100-400 or 150-600). Phone cameras can't match dedicated cameras in these regard.
I just returned from a 14 day tour of Scotland and Ireland. Amazing trip with spectacular scenery. I was surprised to see so few cameras. The majority of the tourists were shooting with their phones. One of my tour mates had a new Samsung that was just amazing and I used my iPhone 14Pro Max. I captured some beautiful images. I’m seriously considering selling my DSLR equipment since I’m a novice and can get what I need with the iPhone.
The iphone pro is a great tool to go along with a ‘real’ camera, especially for stuff like architecture and landscapes. I use it a lot to scout for compositions before getting my camera and tripod out
I subscribed because of ur hair man. Didn’t even know u, or listen to more than 5 seconds of this video but I subscribed immediately upon the viewing of your hair. Rock on my dude. Also I was listening to the video while I typed this, and good job😊
Keep in mind all these photos play to the downside of a phone camera. None of these are dark images, high dynamic range situations or burst/high SS demanding scenarios. The fro did mention that Regardless some great results can be achieved in the right hands
Took my iPhone 14 Pro Max with me up to Sedona AZ. Found the iPhone very convenient to shoot with in the crowded touristy areas vs. my Real Camera. Images were nice.
Great video and these mobile phone camera tech wars are so fun to sit back and watch. Camera companies better step it up. I swear, the iPhone 18 Pro will probably go back to a single 24mm 1.2 lens where the whole square bump currently housing the 3 lenses will be a single 100 megapixel full frame sensor with the ability to just crop into the main sensor for different zoom capabilities. Apple will place magnets in the main cameras lens ring and sell magnetized lenses that attach at different focal lengths and provide lossless zoom utilizing the full 100mp main sensor. They will probably have some dark magic Apple silicone camera focused chip that allows you to shoot at 8k 60fps and 5k 240fps with no heat development. The main screen will refresh at 165 or 240hz and have a full camera setting suit on screen. We live in the best era for technology!
I watched this because I wanted to know if I should consider going with a DLSR. That's been answered, no. I'm a photographer documenting the tropical island where I live. I use Google Photo's editor. It's so easy and fast and there are plenty of filters to choose from. Seeing Light Room in action, I don't see anything I need there, but I appreciate seeing it. Subscribed
This is pretty good, but something about the natural bokeh isn't for me. It be interesting to see how this compares to the Sony Xperia Pro with the "1in" sensor & the upcoming Pixel 7.
I want to say something, Bliss: the Microsoft XP background photo wasn't taken with a Canon, Nikon, Hasselblad, Kodak, nor Fuji. A Mamiya RZ67 was used. Bliss is the most viewed photo in the world, most people aren't going to ask what camera was used.. YOU are the real camera.
You have to give to the iPhone for constantly improving the cameras abilities. And wide, matching the iPhone main camera it does well. It wouldn’t be able to keep up with 85mm and 135mm and especially in low light. 😳
In my technical opinion - a 42 year experienced computer scientist with two grad degrees shooting since 1971 35mm and no mirrorless - you blew this one OUT OF THE PARK! Simple, to the point, as scientifically possible lab-like experiment, and to be selfish, you produced an experiment I’ve had IN MY HEAD for years as a Nikon and iPhone owner. At almost at the same time, I’ve taken iPhone photos while also taking very expensive Nikon camera photos. I sometimes can’t tell the difference using your parameters - being close. I also own both the Z9 and iPhone 13 Pro Max. I just sold my GoPro 10 to get the Insta360 ONE RS 1-Inch. PS in late November, I’m heading to an African safari at Kruger with my Z9, a few lenses, my Insta360. Again, GREAT JOB! Simple to the point baseline like a PRO so everyone can understand and LESS debates. This is my FIRST COMMENT on your channel that’s how amazing this piece is because “I think I know it all.”
you are comparing 35mm to 110 film. phones are more like 110film because sensor size is about the same as 110 film. To put it like this, the old view master used slides about the size of 110 film just to have a refrence for size vs 35mm film.
It only ever produces a 12Mpx image for ALL images except in Pro-Res RAW format - It pixel bins which means it has a 48 Mpx sensor but combines the input from 4 pixels to output 1 pixel to the final image file, the final output mages are 4000x3000 pixels or thereabouts.
You've always hammered down that "It's always about the glass!" - I'm not seeing any of that here. Why not? Similar results with non-L glass and 4th party lenses?
Thank you for explaining at the beginning how the 48MP on the phone actually work. There has been some confusion online as to whether the phone is giving users 12MP or 48MP
When you need more light, the pixel binning that unite 4 pixels in one and give you a image of 12 mp is the way to go, because makes the sensor more sensitive to light. In bright situations you can go easily with full 48 mp
I must say that I am realy impressed with the quality of photos taken with an iPhone. Is it crazy to say that the images are better than what I can get with my nikon z7 + kit lens? Also a question, what monitor do you use?
My kids have Iphones, not sure what level, but not 14. I have been impressed with some of the shots they get. If you can get close and have good lighting, the simplicity and convenience of the phone camera out weighs any degradation in image quality. I am the family member that puts the albums together after any family gatherings. This gives me the opportunity to make comparisons. I compare phone shots to my Z6ii and D500. You can't beat the convenience and this leads to better compositions at times, but a good ILC is still doing better overall. Like I said earlier, for a nice people shot, you need to be close with a phone. I am more of a sniper and prefer to get candid shots. You need more lense for that.
Nice vid, Jared. Yeah, in good light, my One+ 8T (which has a 48mp sensor, from 2+ years ago now. So it's nice to see Apple finally caught up.) can take great images, and I used it in situations where I didn't want to get all my gear out, and the wide angle on this is pretty good, too. So I agree, there's a place for it, but I was still surprised that you didn't harp: "Glass, glass, glass!" as usual, because no mini lens on any smartphone will ever beat a Pro level lens, IMHO, at least for now.
What I would like to see if you were to take pictures with the 3 cameras and place them on fb, Instagram , etc and see if people could pick which one is from which camera. I think its easier to critique the pictures if you know what camera took the.
Hey Jared....can I get on the "lucky shortlisted winner's?" Is it time to sell all my photo gear? I think not as part of the pleasure in photography is the equipment and the ability to control all the parameters of exposure and composition. Thanks for continuing the great reviews Jared!
Thanks Jared I was thinking about this the other day In my opinion In the rare event I don’t have my gear on me an iPhone with that camera will help me get by in a pinch Yet I always default back to my canon
I'd like to see how it performs at a concert in low light with movement (e.g., at a small to medium sized venue -- not an arena with state-of-the-art lighting). As a general note, the ergonomics of phone cameras suck. Is there a phone case available that addresses this by making the phone (case) feel more like a "real" camera?
But knowing apple, they'll never work with Lightroom or any other product that is non apple, they won't accept 3rd party glass, and you'll be locked into paying twice as much for the same thing the same way they lock people in now. Not to mention you're going to see EVERYONE walking around with an "icamara" everywhere and everyone will be a pro photographer 🤣
It's crazy how many people do these comparisons. I appreciate that you do it with the clear understanding that there truly is NO comparison. People expect this content, I believe honestly thinking, one day an iPhone will be indistinguishable from a standalone camera. That will NEVER happen. A true photographer can capture great photos on a potato, but even the best of the best will be limited by the phone as situations become less ideal. All the AI in the world will not make night photography on a tiny sensor not dog shit lol. I'm being a bit hyperbolic, but there are servicable results you get from a phone and stunning results from a camera that is designed to do this. Depth of field is another element that you just can't replicate without glass. I can honestly say that on a large enough screen (or zoomed) I can almost always tell a photo taken from a phone. It doesn't make it bad, it just has a quality to it that's not as full. Bottom line is that it is function versus feature... The FUNCTION of the camera is to capture images. Capturing images is a FEATURE of the iPhone. I really appreciate that you transform a subject that mainly drives clicks over substance into a true educational opportunity versus some sycophantic slobber fest for Apple. Still enjoying this channel years later. Thanks for all the value!
T1.8 is always T1.8 in terms of light transmission (F and T are different, yes, and not all 1.8 are made equal... it's pretty normal to have an F1.8 lens that is a T3.2). Yet the smaller the sensor, the wider the lens for the same FoV, and thus you have all the DoF.
Apple might need to up the storage space available in the cloud with such large files…. I’m having issues already with my smaller Iphone 8 and R6 files:) What storage options would you use with a Iphone 14 pro compared with a Pro storage system for a Z9, A1 or R3? How are big are the video files and are they any good?
For me the advantage of phone is just convient and you can get some photo here n then and share right at the moment. Since phone is small n light and probably always on the user most of the time compare to a camera. Otherwise a camera doesnt matter which brand is still a better tool for better shooting experience and result. No doubt. Phone is just for the convient and instant sharing factor..
After all these years, you're still producing great content Jared. Thanks.
thank you

Mostly getting rejected by girls, then I lost a business in my 40's and thought I was the world's biggest loser and had to move in with my parents. What I do, as Claran suggested, is find something to take your mind off your situation, whatever it is. I used to run in the rain and that helped with depression a lot for some reason. Also, I sometimes go back and visit old friends or even go through my old photos I had when I was younger. It helps me realize that I'm not my problems, and that there's more to me than the stuff I'm going through. Sometimes I wonder how I was so depressed when I was younger, I was thinner, better looking, healthier and lots more hair than now...but at whatever age you're at, sometimes your problems seems so huge and it's hard to know what your future is going to be.....I get it...totally. I'm going through some stuff now. But I'm just like, F it....If you want to read some stuff you might find kind of weird but helpful, I can offer some suggestions. Just let me know. The main thing, as Claran says, it to find something that gets you out of your head.....you need something so you stop thinking about whatever it is you're going through. Go out and do something physical with friends, go visit a new city, go to an amusement park...whatever you do, don't just sit home and keep thinking. I was kind of dragged through the mud by this super hot girl when I was 38......that really messed me up....but I wish I could go back to that age now....but that's another story, lol....hang in there.

I have the 13 Pro and on a crisp sunny day for average shot at around 24mm it's really tough to beat. But when you add in trying to capture, something at high speed, low speed, really good background blur, ligh trails, needing a good zoom etc.. they have a ways to go...
exactly. When you try to take "real" photos......
@@froknowsphoto BTW Jared, I took you up on your recommendations for Allen’s Camera - they have been awesome! I bought my Sony a7 IV from them and three iTunes over the fast few months - all arrived the day after I ordered, nicely packaged and overall, they are great and it feels good to be supporting “a little guy” in a world where it’s harder and harder to do so.
@@Lynd8 how much you paying for iTunes from them? lol
@@Lynd8 what does purchasing three itunes mean?
Was just gonna write much the same comment. I just picked up a 13 Pro myself and sure, a couple of perfect conditions photos were fine - not great, but fine, but anything else they look just as bad as any other phone photos. I'm glad I didn't spring for the 14 Pro.
You did the best review of the iPhone 14 Pro's cameras. Most objective of all reviews that I have watched so far, and this is saying something as I have watched more than 30 tech reviewers. Kudos, Jared!
Upgraded my phone and got my first “pro” iPhone on Friday, and I hate to say it, but these new cameras are pretty amazing. For a quick camera you can pull out in really any situation, the picture quality and portrait modes are so advanced. My iPhone rivals my big camera for wide angle shots, it’s almost not fair.
Portrait mode in cameras is still lacking. When I see an iphone shot wtih portrait mode, I can instantly tell due to the fall off of bokeh and in focus due to it being software manipulated. The iPhone we carry in our pockets is an amazing tool to capture photos, however not this one, or will one in the coming years replace what a mirrorless/dslr can achieve.
When you switch to portrait mode, you can also select which lens you want to use. The default just switches it to the 2x lens. If you press the 2x, you can go back to 1x
I already wondered what happened to potrait mode after switching to the iPhone 14 Pro. Turned out, portrait mode was set to 3x lens. Thanks for this tip!
Hi Jared! I thank you from Argentina for this content. Being an amateur photographer I’ve learnt a lot off you. And of course thanks for your “English”. You speak such a good English!!! It’s a pleasure from a not native speaking person to listen to you!
Definitely phone cameras have replaced the point and shoot market. But there's no way that i'm going to replace my D800 and D4 for work with a phone camera, unless phone companies are able to put a FX sensor, hot shoe for strobes and lens adapters on them. I use my 13 pro max as my walk around camera and I'm impressed with with.
There is a reason most point and shoot cameras disappeared, camera phones are pretty solid.
And there is a reason "real" cameras still exist for more demanding users.
Telephoto and action are still where a dedicated camera shine over a phone
Definitely agree, I've realized I keep my telephoto lenses on my bodies more often because it separates my photography more apart from what most people can do with their phones. Also because I found myself using my phone for wide shots so I don't have to swap lenses for establishing shots, but also I'm no professional and mainly post to the socials.
Portraits too. Phone portraits look so fake.
i agree. smart phones are good, but for wildlife or sports, they are a ways off still because of the need for dof and compression/focal length
@@alexklein455 thank you! people think portrait mode is "good"??? it looks like someone poorly masked the subject and dropped the clarity. thats fine for what it is but dont try to compare it to a portrait taken with a real camera.
@@brianwarner9106 too many people believe the Apple hype..
I have both the A1 with latest gm glsss and the iPhonePM and I can say for sure that that the iPhone 14PM impressed me, but when when I did a side by side comparison against by Sony A1, it was no comparison, iPhone is good, but still not quite there. I gotta say the biggest difference imo was probably the lens flare which is more the lens (24-70mm gm ii) than the camera so again the lens is just as important as the body and I think many people often forget how important the lens is
My S22 Ultra blew me away a bit when I shot a few stills of the Manhattan skyline from 11miles away up in the Bronx.
It also does portraits pretty nicely but I think Iphone just has the edge in that department.
7:44 to skip the embedded advert about the packs
I always take my 11 Pro iPhone with me and take photos to compare against my D7200. I’m always astonished by the detailed clarity of landscape photos. ‘I’m purchasing the 14Pro and heading to Yellowstone this Winter and Christmas gifting myself the Z9.
"I’m purchasing the 14Pro and Christmas gifting myself the Z9", I like that plan and have been thinking about doing that also.
Interesting video, however modern phones rely heavily in stacking images to improve SNR and then get cleaner images, more DR, etc.
I imagine shooting things in motion will deliver a different story (even in good light).
They’re working on movement.
They’ll get there..
While a phone that costs about 1/5 of a pro camera is still pricey, to get the results that you do in a format that is 'always with you' means it's likely the best camera that most people will use, most of the time.
Spot on. Same thing is taught in the police academy about tiny backup/off-duty pistols. Is it as capable as your full-size duty weapon? No. But the little gun you have with you is a lot better than the better one that is home in your safe.
Yeah plus the pro cameras you need the accessories including lenses and sdcards / ssd's for storage
Best iPhone review video I’ve seen yet. Really nice job.
I will never have anywhere near the talent as you have, but I sure do love watching your videos!
As a grandmother of 2 little girls I find I am using my phone camera more and more and my Nikon camera less. The portrait setting on the phone camera is wonderful for shooting outdoors. For indoor birthday parties, Christmas morning etc. I still depend on my Nikon. Thanks for your comparison. I know that I will now upgrade my iPhone. I have made a very conscious effort to develop the photos from the iPhone just as I do from the Nikon. Thank you for the pointer to move in and don’t crop with the iPhone. Great video.
I think it's crazy impressive how well the phone cameras have gotten. Like you said, side by side, it'd be near impossible to tell. At the end of the day, it's the user/photographer that creates the style of photos they want. It's interesting to see how well phone cameras have gotten. Has it killed the "point and shoot" cameras? Haha, was great to see you go in depth between the 3 images from the 3 cameras.
Agree. Smartphones have really just become cameras with the ability to run apps and talk to other people. The hardware has become rather impressive over time, but a lot of the magic equally happens in software these days (think picture profiles - such a "portrait mode"). Even on full-frame bodies, firmware is doing 'something' for optimization one way or another.
I remember when phone cameras were 1.2 megapixels and I still remember when they only had a back facing camera and a lot of phones back to have a little mirror to take a picture of yourself. And I also remember in like 2008 if you took a video it was less than 240p. And you can only record maybe 15 seconds
@@leestrickland I think honestly you could probably make a successful TH-cam channel or do other things like house tours with a iPhone 14 promax. And nobody's going to question if it's shot on a camera or a phone cuz the cameras on phones are so good nowadays if someone didn't tell you it was shot on the phone sometimes you wouldn't even know
Phone cameras alone made Nikon put all their focus towards their mirrorless lines
It's impossible to tell if you take shots that the phones are great at. Wide angle, landscape and low speed settings you won't be able to tell much difference. If you want depth of field or fast shutter speeds or actual zoom the phones mostly still suck. So ofc if you do a test where it doesn't matter you won't be able to tell the difference, you could get the same images on a 15 year old point and shoot.
3:35
Am I the only one seen a face there? With the clouds and the triangle lol
Excellent. I've been wondering about these comparisons for a long time.
Awesome review as always
thanks for review...I'm in limbo about the 14.. and btw loved the Philly Museum of Art when we lived there but I miss the Rocky statue
Just for full disclosure the Iphone 14 Pro has a 48 Mpx sensor but produces 12 Mpx images. It uses pixel binning (combining 4 pixels from the sensor for 1 pixel output).
Looks like 48 megapixels to me. Where are you getting that information? The information I have directly from apple at our in person meeting is it’s a 48 megapixel sensor.
@@froknowsphoto It's a 48MP 'quad Bayer' sensor not nearly the same thing as a normal 48MP camera sensor - 4 pixels from the sensor are combined into 1 pixel of output - that is why the standard Jpegs are 4000x3000 pixels (12MP). For the pro-raw files (48MP) it is still either pixel binning then doing a similar thing that Olympus and Panasoinc do to create Hi-Res files - it re-combines multiple 4x12MP images to form a 48MP pro raw file or sends the light information only to combine for a 48MP file - there is only 12MP of colour information physically possible. For an explanation see the DP review explanation th-cam.com/video/Xry-V-fkOAI/w-d-xo.html
@@froknowsphoto To further explain the quad bayer sensor and how it works - you only ever really get 12MP for all images or a 48MP "sort of" image. The phone uses a quad bayer filter, instead of the RGB filter covering one pixel at a time it covers 4 at a time (i.e the red filter covers 4, the green 4 and the blue 4 pixels), it then combines the information from the 4 pixels under that part of the filter array to provide 1 pixel of output as an image (hence why 48MP produce 12MP of actual output), while the 4 pixels under say the green part of the filter can register different amounts of light they only interpret 1 colour that's why it's not nearly the same as a 48MP camera sensor. OK so how come I get a 48MP raw file? Well instead of combining the 4 pixels under a color it registers them separately - you can get a variation in light but the smallest unit of variation in colour is still the 4 pixels. So you end up with a "sort of" 48MP image - 48MP of light variation but only 12MP of colour.
Computational photography is pretty amazing, and the raw images of stationary, predictable things is also really good. I think a next step would be to have presets like “real” cameras have so you can quickly swap between modes instead of digging through menus.
Sony makes Android devices, would be interesting to see them experiment with an Alpha Android
@@ArleyMcBlain Ehm, never seen an Experia 5? It's a smartphone, made by sony and the camera app has the same UI of the "real sony cameras"
Great review fro 👍👍
For most people and most uses, the newer iPhones are more than good enough. Portrait mode on my 13 Pro is very good. Travel photography is ideal for the iPhone. My iPhone doesn’t replace my cameras but I’m happy to shoot with it and and I’ve gotten good results so far.
Since this 48mp sensor is so new, I’d like to see a direct comparison of the noise in low light. Iso 6400 “light” compared to not only the cameras here but also of the iPhone 13’s 12mp. I expect some extra noise, but how bad is it going to be?
Great review Jared, you didn't nitpick when it wasn't there to get all snotty about it!.
Good job sir.
Great vid as always Jared. Thanks for sharing the comparison, something that I have been looking for, for quite some time.
End of the day as i was once told a phone is a Phone and a camera is a camera! Both have their own jobs to do, and it all depends how you feel for photo taking. Some are happy with what a phone can produce within a box so to speak. Whereas like me you can beat the adaptability of a camera for all situations and be in control rather than let something do it for you
While I think it's great to show the strengths of phone cameras, to remind us what they're capable of, I wish more people also showed their weaknesses.
Although WE know how phones do in low light or when trying to zoom in to things at a distance, or photographing fast moving action, an average person stumbling across this, or other videos about phones, might not.
That's not to speak down on Jared's video, it was really good. But whenever you look for phone vs camera videos on TH-cam, its always doing landscapes or wide portriats, and stuff that most phones are good at.
I'm just waiting for someone to add sports and wildlife in low light to the comparison videos
that's because they aren't capable of the rest and I try and show that in the Real World Reviews. I even shot a concert with the 11 a few years ago and made it work. But that's because I understand what goes into capturing an image. But of course, I can't go shoot a baseball game.
I shoot sports, how about Jared photograph a NHL game with it. Love to see the results.
@@froknowsphoto I was just about to say that. I love your content. Keep doing the amazing work!
@@tngcwa30403 you try it and upload it. I’d love to see it.
great but we still want to see these night photos compared on same 3 cameras. we want to see how much it's "bad" or not.
Interesting findings, Fro. To the readers, appears the megapixels on a small phone camera provide the same” quality “ as the megapixels on a medium format digital camera or a full frame digital camera. Agree? Or are we talking apples to apples or apples to oranges?
As a DSLR owner, I have to admit the color science and exposure on my iPhone is compelling.
when you set the phone to 5x or 10x is it cropping in on a 48mp image or a 12mp image ?
Android user here. I never even considered using a phone for photography so please forgive my ignorance. My question is could the iPhone use a flashgun, by any chance? I saw a hot shoe on the phone holder in the video, so it got my mind going. Would you consider making a comparison between these cameras and an iPhone using flashguns on cameras and internal flash on iPhone? That would I am sure give us a complete picture of the situation with iPhone use for professional photography.
The Portrait-Mode at 11:48 is impressive!
Great review.. The technology in phones has come so far.. Mine arrives tomorrow! Will definitely be a part of my work flow and projects in the future. Keep up the good work!
Little Dan is growing up fast.
Just a correction @10:12: the sensor size has no effect on the aperture or bokeh. If you shoot from the same distance at the same aperture and focal length, the depth of field is going to be the same, no matter the size of the sensor that's capturing it. The reason the iPhone Image looks different at f/1.8 is that it's shot at 6.86mm whereas the other ones are at 24mm.
This is technically true, but practically the consequence is that with a smaller sensor you will get less background blur, precisely because in order to frame your shot in the same way (same angle of view / subject composition), you will be forced to use a different focal length.
@@gabedamien You're right. It's just the way he phrased it "apertures act differently when the sensor is smaller or larger" that's just not accurate.
If your photos are of still subjects, taken in bright/good lighting, with a very limited selection of normal focal lengths, you don't crop, and you don't care about camera ergonomics, storage options, or bokeh, then a modern phone camera can do just fine.
The areas where a dedicated camera really sets itself apart are in everything else.
Thanks for the video - I wound up having to use the 14 Pro Max to shoot my son’s peewee soccer game instead of my Z7 w/70-200 2.8. I got some great shots, to be sure, but your observations about needing to be close to your subject were exactly what I experienced on a crystal-clear Saturday morning. Where I really missed it was in action shots far from where I was sitting - it was similar to the crop test early in the video which really showed the limits of the sensor size.
Thanks again for your efforts - you are an absolute joy.
Great video! Man I love how you give us the details! Thanks Jared!
09:40 or... just turn the slider below "Apple ProRAW" down, from the default 100, eh? Simple enough, shown in tens of videos including Apple's own since the premiere of ProRAW years ago and allows you to get just the amount of computational magic you want without losing all of it by hitting 'Reset'. Otherwise you can get a 3rd party pro photo app, any of them, and choose RAW instead of ProRAW, save you the hassle.
Dude your hair is perfect to appreciate the sharpness of your lens 👍🏻
Oh and I waited for a video just like that, so thank you very much
Thank you for doing this. My iPhone 14 pro max is on the way and I was wondering how they would compare. Unfortunately I can’t afford a Z9 or A1 but I am enjoying my Z50 and it sounds like I will enjoy the new iPhone when it arrives as well.
Can’t afford a camera but buying the most expensive and overrated “phone”… sounds logical ;D
@@dicekolev5360 I have a z50 - a great camera but I am choosing not to spend $6k on a top camera plus a couple of thousand more for great lenses. $400 for a new iPhone (with my trade in) is quite a different expense. I have and use the phone all day every day. A great camera would probably only be used once a week.
@@danielcampbell6427 I agree Daniel, cheers^^
What happened to the "I shoot raw" movement ? Computational bokeh works better right? I believe its one of the few proper "dslr/smartphone camera comparisons" on youtube... Nice one! We would like to see more in depth comparisons of small vs bigger sensor sizes.
You should have Included the s22ultra in the comparison since it has the optical zoom.
I'd like to see your results with portrait mode using the 77mm lens.
IMO dedicated cameras shine when using them with wide aperture lenses like 1.4 or 1.2 for portraits or low light photography, or telephoto lenses for portraits (70-200) or wildlife (100-400 or 150-600). Phone cameras can't match dedicated cameras in these regard.
I just returned from a 14 day tour of Scotland and Ireland. Amazing trip with spectacular scenery. I was surprised to see so few cameras. The majority of the tourists were shooting with their phones. One of my tour mates had a new Samsung that was just amazing and I used my iPhone 14Pro Max. I captured some beautiful images. I’m seriously considering selling my DSLR equipment since I’m a novice and can get what I need with the iPhone.
The iphone pro is a great tool to go along with a ‘real’ camera, especially for stuff like architecture and landscapes. I use it a lot to scout for compositions before getting my camera and tripod out
OOOH!!!!! That R5 is crisp and clean!!!!
I love your reviews and photography, the best 📸🎥👌🏼
I subscribed because of ur hair man. Didn’t even know u, or listen to more than 5 seconds of this video but I subscribed immediately upon the viewing of your hair. Rock on my dude. Also I was listening to the video while I typed this, and good job😊
Wow thanks for this review!!! I needed this!
Keep in mind all these photos play to the downside of a phone camera. None of these are dark images, high dynamic range situations or burst/high SS demanding scenarios.
The fro did mention that
Regardless some great results can be achieved in the right hands
My experience is iPhone falls apart if you zoom in and or crop where real camera you can crop the hell and still
Have a good image.
Cool, Thanks fir testing this..
Took my iPhone 14 Pro Max with me up to Sedona AZ. Found the iPhone very convenient to shoot with in the crowded touristy areas vs. my Real Camera. Images were nice.
Another winner & super helpful.
Thx lantzman!
Great video and these mobile phone camera tech wars are so fun to sit back and watch. Camera companies better step it up. I swear, the iPhone 18 Pro will probably go back to a single 24mm 1.2 lens where the whole square bump currently housing the 3 lenses will be a single 100 megapixel full frame sensor with the ability to just crop into the main sensor for different zoom capabilities. Apple will place magnets in the main cameras lens ring and sell magnetized lenses that attach at different focal lengths and provide lossless zoom utilizing the full 100mp main sensor. They will probably have some dark magic Apple silicone camera focused chip that allows you to shoot at 8k 60fps and 5k 240fps with no heat development. The main screen will refresh at 165 or 240hz and have a full camera setting suit on screen. We live in the best era for technology!
FroPack 3 looks INSANE! Think you’d ever come out with LUTs??
I watched this because I wanted to know if I should consider going with a DLSR. That's been answered, no. I'm a photographer documenting the tropical island where I live. I use Google Photo's editor. It's so easy and fast and there are plenty of filters to choose from. Seeing Light Room in action, I don't see anything I need there, but I appreciate seeing it. Subscribed
This is pretty good, but something about the natural bokeh isn't for me. It be interesting to see how this compares to the Sony Xperia Pro with the "1in" sensor & the upcoming Pixel 7.
The natural Bokeh is still a long way short of a dedicated camera even M4/3.
I want to say something, Bliss: the Microsoft XP background photo wasn't taken with a Canon, Nikon, Hasselblad, Kodak, nor Fuji. A Mamiya RZ67 was used. Bliss is the most viewed photo in the world, most people aren't going to ask what camera was used.. YOU are the real camera.
You have to give to the iPhone for constantly improving the cameras abilities. And wide, matching the iPhone main camera it does well. It wouldn’t be able to keep up with 85mm and 135mm and especially in low light. 😳
In my technical opinion - a 42 year experienced computer scientist with two grad degrees shooting since 1971 35mm and no mirrorless - you blew this one OUT OF THE PARK! Simple, to the point, as scientifically possible lab-like experiment, and to be selfish, you produced an experiment I’ve had IN MY HEAD for years as a Nikon and iPhone owner. At almost at the same time, I’ve taken iPhone photos while also taking very expensive Nikon camera photos. I sometimes can’t tell the difference using your parameters - being close. I also own both the Z9 and iPhone 13 Pro Max. I just sold my GoPro 10 to get the Insta360 ONE RS 1-Inch. PS in late November, I’m heading to an African safari at Kruger with my Z9, a few lenses, my Insta360. Again, GREAT JOB! Simple to the point baseline like a PRO so everyone can understand and LESS debates. This is my FIRST COMMENT on your channel that’s how amazing this piece is because “I think I know it all.”
CORRECTION: …now shooting mirroless…
you are comparing 35mm to 110 film. phones are more like 110film because sensor size is about the same as 110 film. To put it like this, the old view master used slides about the size of 110 film just to have a refrence for size vs 35mm film.
Any low light photography testing? Would be interesting to see
Exactly! It doesn't even have to be low light. Any less than ideal light condition...and you throw the iphone out the window!
I would like to see the low light tests just for fun..
I have always loved my iPhone for its panoramic ability. Curious how the 48mp does for panos… suspect it defaults back to 12mp.
It only ever produces a 12Mpx image for ALL images except in Pro-Res RAW format - It pixel bins which means it has a 48 Mpx sensor but combines the input from 4 pixels to output 1 pixel to the final image file, the final output mages are 4000x3000 pixels or thereabouts.
You've always hammered down that "It's always about the glass!" - I'm not seeing any of that here. Why not? Similar results with non-L glass and 4th party lenses?
Thank you for explaining at the beginning how the 48MP on the phone actually work. There has been some confusion online as to whether the phone is giving users 12MP or 48MP
When you need more light, the pixel binning that unite 4 pixels in one and give you a image of 12 mp is the way to go, because makes the sensor more sensitive to light. In bright situations you can go easily with full 48 mp
I must say that I am realy impressed with the quality of photos taken with an iPhone. Is it crazy to say that the images are better than what I can get with my nikon z7 + kit lens? Also a question, what monitor do you use?
Awesome content as always; thank you Jared!! 🔥
My kids have Iphones, not sure what level, but not 14. I have been impressed with some of the shots they get. If you can get close and have good lighting, the simplicity and convenience of the phone camera out weighs any degradation in image quality. I am the family member that puts the albums together after any family gatherings. This gives me the opportunity to make comparisons. I compare phone shots to my Z6ii and D500. You can't beat the convenience and this leads to better compositions at times, but a good ILC is still doing better overall. Like I said earlier, for a nice people shot, you need to be close with a phone. I am more of a sniper and prefer to get candid shots. You need more lense for that.
Nice vid, Jared. Yeah, in good light, my One+ 8T (which has a 48mp sensor, from 2+ years ago now. So it's nice to see Apple finally caught up.) can take great images, and I used it in situations where I didn't want to get all my gear out, and the wide angle on this is pretty good, too. So I agree, there's a place for it, but I was still surprised that you didn't harp: "Glass, glass, glass!" as usual, because no mini lens on any smartphone will ever beat a Pro level lens, IMHO, at least for now.
Little Dan is not so little Dan anymore 👍🏻
Great analysis Jared ! 👍
What I would like to see if you were to take pictures with the 3 cameras and place them on fb, Instagram , etc and see if people could pick which one is from which camera. I think its easier to critique the pictures if you know what camera took the.
Hey Jared....can I get on the "lucky shortlisted winner's?"
Is it time to sell all my photo gear? I think not as part of the pleasure in photography is the equipment and the ability to control all the parameters of exposure and composition. Thanks for continuing the great reviews Jared!
Thanks Jared
I was thinking about this the other day
In my opinion
In the rare event I don’t have my gear on me an iPhone with that camera will help me get by in a pinch
Yet I always default back to my canon
Can you make a fro pack for capture one? I love your presets brother.
I'd like to see how it performs at a concert in low light with movement (e.g., at a small to medium sized venue -- not an arena with state-of-the-art lighting).
As a general note, the ergonomics of phone cameras suck. Is there a phone case available that addresses this by making the phone (case) feel more like a "real" camera?
I did that at a concert for iphone 11
@@froknowsphoto Yes, but I'd like to see it done with this new model.
Very informative! Thanks for the review.
Great comparison and very fair to all the products involved. Should photographers be worried?
Thanks fro. You made my decision for me. Looking to upgrade my phone. All other reviews don’t compare to the fros.
Oooh can't wait for this review but I first gotta water the plants. BRB 😊
I want to see the low light comparison.
The day Apple makes a dedicated camera with proper glass on top of their amazing computational processing, it's gonna be over for the competition.
With option to edit and upload straight from the camera, will be a true competition killer.
they will not make anything that will kill the iphones
But knowing apple, they'll never work with Lightroom or any other product that is non apple, they won't accept 3rd party glass, and you'll be locked into paying twice as much for the same thing the same way they lock people in now.
Not to mention you're going to see EVERYONE walking around with an "icamara" everywhere and everyone will be a pro photographer 🤣
@@AndyGarcia-ch1ci last line😂😂 “everyone will be pro”
@@AndyGarcia-ch1ci apple doesn't do that now, so why would they start. prob research or something.
It's crazy how many people do these comparisons. I appreciate that you do it with the clear understanding that there truly is NO comparison. People expect this content, I believe honestly thinking, one day an iPhone will be indistinguishable from a standalone camera. That will NEVER happen.
A true photographer can capture great photos on a potato, but even the best of the best will be limited by the phone as situations become less ideal. All the AI in the world will not make night photography on a tiny sensor not dog shit lol. I'm being a bit hyperbolic, but there are servicable results you get from a phone and stunning results from a camera that is designed to do this. Depth of field is another element that you just can't replicate without glass. I can honestly say that on a large enough screen (or zoomed) I can almost always tell a photo taken from a phone. It doesn't make it bad, it just has a quality to it that's not as full.
Bottom line is that it is function versus feature... The FUNCTION of the camera is to capture images. Capturing images is a FEATURE of the iPhone.
I really appreciate that you transform a subject that mainly drives clicks over substance into a true educational opportunity versus some sycophantic slobber fest for Apple.
Still enjoying this channel years later. Thanks for all the value!

@@moistcookiezz whatever that means...
T1.8 is always T1.8 in terms of light transmission (F and T are different, yes, and not all 1.8 are made equal... it's pretty normal to have an F1.8 lens that is a T3.2). Yet the smaller the sensor, the wider the lens for the same FoV, and thus you have all the DoF.
dang that "Fro Knows Photooo" took me back lol. Great Content!!
Samsung Galaxy phones have had RAW file photos for years. Why wasn't the S22 Ultra used in this comparison?
Apple might need to up the storage space available in the cloud with such large files…. I’m having issues already with my smaller Iphone 8 and R6 files:) What storage options would you use with a Iphone 14 pro compared with a Pro storage system for a Z9, A1 or R3? How are big are the video files and are they any good?
I hope I don’t get spam replies every time I reply… I’m not a short list looser responder… or maybe I am because I just did…
I'll continue to need my Nikon bodies/lenses for pro work, but this be the beginning of the end for my walk around mirrorless cameras.
For me the advantage of phone is just convient and you can get some photo here n then and share right at the moment. Since phone is small n light and probably always on the user most of the time compare to a camera.
Otherwise a camera doesnt matter which brand is still a better tool for better shooting experience and result. No doubt. Phone is just for the convient and instant sharing factor..
