    Everyone should check out Tony Northrup's iPhone 16 Pro Max review of the misleading marketing Apple has done on the 48 megapixel cameras which are actually 6 megapixels (not 48) when compared to a real camera lens. He shows comparison pictures and the difference is horrifyingly bad for the iPhone.

    Two things. Make that camera sensor 1 inch with 48 megapixels f 1.2 for all lenses- Tele, Wide and Ultra wide. Also leave a separate sensor area adjacent to the existing lenses which can be used for magnetically attaching an apple designed lens (much bigger aperture and like 50mm focal length).
    There it is- my patent. Apple, feel free to copy it. I wont sue you. 😅

    It's true that there isn't much difference compared to the iPhone 15, but I think it's worth waiting for the iPhone 16 Pro Max and switching. Just for the 4K at 120 frames per second, it's worth it-plus, let's not forget that all of this is in HDR, and the video quality we know from Apple is top-notch.
    The differences may be minimal, but they're worth it.

    I am upgrading and so are 4 other people who are shooting episodes for a reality tv show on Circle Network.
    I will be using the phones to their fullest potential. We travel all over the world and a short window to film so here we go!! I will be going down to 1 C70 for mics to attach until we figure out if the new mics on the phone will work.
    Sounds crazy but we are going for it.
    If we have the right lighting, I think we will love the ease of grabbing our iPhones and to simply start filming. Especially with the new stability sensors.
    The only thing I can’t stand is the over sharpening and the relentless green dot. Hopefully LOG will calm the sharpness and if anyone out there has tricks for the green dot please let me know!!

    A content creator uses a iPhone 8 Plus 256 GB and thinks about buying the new iPhone 16 Pro Max with 256 GB or 512 GB.
    I asked him: Have you researched the video recording quality and features of other High End Smartphones like Google Pixel 9 Pro XL or Samsung S24 Ultra or Oneplus 12 Pro or … ?????
    He looks at me, thinks about it and says: „No, because rarely someone talks about it in Reviews, UA-cam, Reddit, Forums etc. - it‘s just the myth, that Apple is best in videography“.
    I couldn’t believe it, so we tool some time and searched for the answers and yes, it‘s really hard to find. It‘s like a big puzzle, where one finds some real world examples from practice in some comments, some UA-cam videos, some stories about (short) movies or Tv documentaries shot with smartphones.

    I'm certainly looking into getting one because I can't afford an FX30 with the extra lenses. Coming from absolute zero is never considered, but that's the situation rn. The compromises can be dealt with later, right now I just need something good enough to get me to the door. No point overthinking or hesitating, neither of those get the job done.

      If you want to shoot a film, you might also want to check the real camera, as the depth of field and lens choice might add up much more. It is a great second camera though, add a phone look or maybe a 8mm look to some part of your narrative if that’s what you want.

    I think the camera control button is a neat feature. Not sure if I would ever find a use for the 4k120. If I was making lots of content, I'd seriously consider upgrading. But I'm not, so I'm staying put with my 15 Pro Max.
    The other thing to consider is how important Apple Intelligence is for you. Most of AI won't apply to filmmakers, but being able to search the photos app for specific video moments is almost like having an assistant editor pulling clips for you. I think that would be very, very cool, especially if you are doing a complete workflow on your phone. (I know it'll work on M1+ Macs and iPads as well.)

They roll out the iPhone 12 Pro, drop a few breadcrumbs of innovation, then for the next two models-the iPhone 13 and 14-they practically change the wallpaper and call it progress. But don’t worry, Apple knows exactly when to reel you back in with the iPhone 15 Pro, flaunting just enough flashy features to make you forget the last two were glorified rebrands.
