    When Apple announced their iPhone 15 Pro Max with Tetra Prism 5x zooming lens...they also said it would be perfect for capturing sports action. Since they made the claim, I set out to review the 5x zoom lens, which is the equivalent of 120mm, against a "Real" camera and lens set to 120mm. I took the phone and real camera into the Real World to Photograph a Major League Baseball game, and these were my results.

    (Edit: props to Jared. As someone who's tried shooting baseball with a phone, his shots were crazy good for what he took them with. I know I couldn't do that.)
    Idk. I understand the direct comparison of 120mm vs 120mm.
    But the advantage of a dedicated camera is the ability to zoom with optics and change lenses.
    Like, yeah, phone sensors have come a long ways. But any sensor looks nice in good light or kept at base iso.
    Use the 5x at night, and then compare. But that's just me.
    Also, why not do an iPhone vs same cost photography setup comparison? Including used gear prices.
    Could get a D750 or D810 and 70-200mm for the 1500 of the iPhone.
    I know a photographer will most likely never trade their camera and lenses for a phone. But someone might be considering a phone or a camera, and showing the true differences and limits might be enough to push them to pick up photography

    I’m kind of glad to hear this review. I’ve been shooting on pro cams for years, and frankly I’m kind of worn out from the cumbersome process of lugging a big cam around, dumping huge batches, and forcing myself to go back and edit photos from something where the moment has way passed. I’m kind of generally uninspired. I just recently ordered a 15 pro max upgrading from an XR. I’m kind of excited to see what I can get when the mood strikes me and it’s in my pocket, rather than loading up my gear and trying to “go get something”. I certainly won’t be getting rid of my pro cams, but I’m looking forward to having something pretty capable in my pocket at all times.

    I actually didn't have any trouble finding which one was the Iphone in your comparisons : it always has more grain (or oversharpening - hard to tell as you're not zooming in), the bokeh is sometimes terrible, and the "real" camera shows the same amount of details while being a lot softer and natural to my eyes ...
    It would have been cool to compare it to a $1500 camera setup, like a D610 and a good used lens :)

    That's a great comparison. Family loves taking phone photos but they also have some photo gear. I've shot weddings and events professionally for 13 years so it was pretty straightforward (colors, bokeh style, focusing "style") to nail the iPhone vs Camera shots every time. That isn't to diminish what mobile cameras are achieving because it's pretty nuts; but it's also nice to see a down-to-Earth video showing a challenging and fair comparison in an easy to understand way.

  • @skyscraperfan
    @skyscraperfan 7 місяців тому +25

    120mm (full frame equivalent) is a native focal length of the iPhone, but imagine you need to go a little wider. At 100mm you need to use the 24mm lens and apply a heavy crop. You will only use 5.76% of that already very tiny sensor. That is less than 1/1000 of the sensor size of full frame.

    • @sixgunfilms
      @sixgunfilms 2 місяці тому

      Fundamentally misunderstands the nature of computational processing in order to justify spending 4 figures on a fringe use case lens that will weigh 2-3 pounds. If you regularly need 100mm you already know it and no video is going to convince you one way or the other. Otherwise you're working backwards from your conclusions.

    Thanks so much for posting a great comparison video with the new iPhone 15 Pro Max and a full frame Nikon with equivalent focal length lens setting. I’ve shot sports with a full frame Nikon and a 300 mm Nikon lens and had many great shots but there have been many occasions when I didn’t have all my gear along for the ride. What I did have was my iPhone. It’s nice to at least have something to capture the moment. I’m so glad to see the improvements that Apple has made with their cameras in the Pro Max model. My point here is that the best camera is the one you have with you at the moment. Sometimes, that’s just a lowly cellphone. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Its not so much cost, but more weight+convenience and „good enough“ (i.e. better than my DSLR 15 yrs ago). Even tempted to try the phone for studio photography (but would need to upgrade one of my strobes to be iphone-compatible).

    I'mma put it like this: The quality is in there, the versatility isn't. So, I could probably take my portraits with an iPhone and no one would notice (I take mostly 50mm - 85mm), but would I take the iPhone to a wedding? Never. It just doesn't have the versatility of having more zoom, using Off-Camera Flash etc.

    Maybe I’ve been a photographer too long, but every time you say “you can hardly tell a difference”, I chuckle. Yes, decent snapshots, but…no.

      I was also immediately able to tell, but the difference is still quite subtle, which is honestly impressive.

    I'm "old," (retired) and gave away my "good" camera gear to my oldest son who is a serious hobbyist. I now have the iPhone 15 Pro Max and that is now my only camera. I like watching channels like this so I can see all of the great stuff I can do with it. I use the iPhone for more than just its camera, of course, but this is what I'm looking for when I come here.

    Or maybe can you shoot in portrait mode with HEIF MAX?

    Can you export on lightroom mobile with enough quality for prints? It seems to me its locked on 70dpi and even when i only print 3x6 its pixelated (canon 80D with 100mm ef f2.8 L macro lens)

    For phones that capture depth data, usually when people find ways to extract the depth map, it becomes clear that the depth map is extremely low res, often around 0.5 megapixels for a 12 megpaixel image. They then rely on AI edge detection for the subject, but the end result is that the depth of field will look bad unless the background is far from the subject, and even then it will struggle with fine edge details where it is harder for the AI to figure out what is part of the subject and what is part of the background, since the depth map will not have any fine detail thus it cannot rely on depth info to help select the subject.

      Someone wearing headphones can have one side blurred, other not. Plus the output will have less room for postprocessing. But you can have a fun time with the device you have with you.

    You also see some slight barrel vignetting that you don't get with the phone camera, but I do agree, the phone camera and its software has come so far it makes it difficult to tell the difference at first glance.

  • @Mistygio
    @Mistygio 7 місяців тому +1

    well I mean yeah iPhone does add foreground blur now. Thats what makes it "more advanced" compared to other smartphones. But it won't work at that kind of distance yet. Also, I would have attached a lens. I wouldn't have used a naked phone camera if I wanted the best image possible at a baseball game. Also a tele lens attachment will add natural bokeh too. Any phone I have I would attach a lens if I wanted to get real good photos of subjects that are far away.

    Well, Lightroom offers lens blur now that can automatically detect depth info and you can choose what to focus like subject or point it out anywhere.

      @toddysurcharge771 7 місяців тому

      Fast apertures aren’t just for depth of field..it’s for light gathering too. So it still won’t replace fast lenses but if you’re on a budget and can’t afford more than a slow zoom and shoot during the day you can use that feature absolutely

  • @Speed_Cristiano

    Nice comparison. I have a Canon R5 with an array of L lenses. That said, my phone is always with me. Apple, Samsung and Pixel are all improving mobile phone photography. I find my big rig full frame often stays home these days. The new phone cameras are simply good enough in many cases.

    I think Back and Foreground Blur is going to improve rapidly with all the focus AI Bokeh is getting right now.
    What stands out in this comparison between phone and FF Sensor is as usual dynamic range and also that really awkward sharpening that apple keeps pushing on its photos.

  • @gregmosher4287
    @gregmosher4287 7 місяців тому +1

    these were some of the harder photos to tell apart in these kinds of comparisons. to be honest the same thing still rings true, the cutting out of the hair and the ways it computes the out of focus blue. they are way better then they have ever been which is impressive. but its still a pretty big give away.
    even on one of the shots there was a little fluff on the shirt that caught a little light from the big stadium lighting and it showed up on the real camera but the phone blured it away.
    again... for a phone this is the best I have seen.
    for me the buttons and dials and control you get with a real camera will always win out over a phone

    • @ElMundoDuro
      @ElMundoDuro 7 місяців тому

      I had a teenager looking at some of the images I took with a real camera and they said it looked like I went too far with blurring the background of a portrait making it look fake. When I tried explaining to them that this is not fake, but the results of a shallow depth of field on a wide aperture lens, they had a hard time grasping the idea. At some point more people may prefer fake bokeh to real bokeh.

  • @Uns46

  • @staiain

    Oversharpening and issues with white balance and some colours on stuff like foliage are the only real complaints for me with phone photos these days, for everyday moments they've gotten very good and if I didn't have some experience with real cameras I wouldn't have noticed these things

    For me there was a clear difference and it was in the colour rendition. The iPhone looked very muddy and the Nikon was very crisp and vibrant.

  • @andrewkawlni6125
    @andrewkawlni6125 7 місяців тому +1

    this shows how much the mobile camera has grown. The only thing that shows a real camera is the real camera (on this video) is the white balance, the slight over sharpened and the bokeh.

  • @romanpul
    @romanpul 7 місяців тому

    I almost got the images wrong, but changed my mind last second, when I looked at the bokeh again. The fake-bokeh from the iphone still looks a lot like gaussian blur, while the Nikon has more err ‘texture’ to.

  • @pranjalsharma479
    @pranjalsharma479 7 місяців тому

    I noticed that on the iphone when it gets it right the bokeh balls are completely round , no lens distortion.
    If the photos are too good they were taken on the iPhone pro max or the pixel pro

  • @pbanthonyv
    @pbanthonyv 7 місяців тому

    Or just grab an m100 and the EF-M55-200 or EF-S 55-250 for like $600 total and get 320/400 ff equiv in a package you are likely to be let in with.
    The first comparison took me a while but I got it, the shirt and hair looked over sharpened and raised shadows on the iPhone. The pants color and bokeh was throwing me for a loop , but once I honed in on the shirt it was pretty clear. After that iPhone stuck out like a sore thumb, still pretty good but the knowing what to look for made it easy.
    Also worth mentioning the iPhone Pro max is $1,600, that's not nothing and the camera is a pretty big selling point..... But.... For the form factor it's great, so YMMV I guess.

  • @obscurelines
    @obscurelines 7 місяців тому

    I have a pixel pro 7 and it takes a great photo. But when I look at them on bigger screens versus my pro cameras I can always see they are phone photos. On an iPad pro or monitor they don't give the same joy as a camera. That said, I am reaching for it so often, and for wide shots I'm as likely to use my phone as anything else.

  • @mike_s_media

    Harper is such a class act out there man! Contained his frustration and instead of doing the typical dugout temper tantrum flung his helmet to the fans! The iPhones look great but they just don't handle those bright neon lights very well. I'd never reach for my iPhone over my Alpha 1 but it's nice to have handy when I'm not out shooting or with the family!

  • @madm4tty
    @madm4tty 7 місяців тому +8

    Really impressed by the iPhone considering the lack of lighting is pushing the limits of the 5x. I enjoy a bit of street photography but no longer have the time to spend on workflows and tweaking so hoping this is going to work well for me.

  • @arthur3038
    @arthur3038 6 місяців тому

    the borderline on top of the helmet/blue sky and pants to green made the difference obvious very fast. The results are very, very impressiv .. but maybe should compare results and ergonomics to a cam in a similar price area as the iPhone 15 ?.. i wonder when C/N/S are putting some Phone features into their bodies (SIM).. - have the game reversed - can talk to your client whilst shooting, without having to carry a heavy cumbersom device to call..

  • @WrongEnd
    @WrongEnd 6 місяців тому

    I got all the challenges correct, i can tell by how you ask the player to make his bat on his shoulder to avoid having a small gap that the phone can't process, again it's impressive stuff and if you know how to pose your model and avoid the limitations you will get really good results.
