iPhone 16 Pro to Feature 4K 120fps Video Recoding
Apple’s special event is just a few days away, and the company is expected to unveil the new iPhone 16 models. One of the exciting updates for these new iPhones is that they will feature camera improvements. Users can look forward to the ability to shoot videos in 4K resolution at 120 frames per second (fps). This means videos will be clearer and smoother. Additionally, the camera button on the new iPhones will work with third-party apps, offering more flexibility and functionality for taking photos and videos.
New camera features coming to iPhone 16 Pro
Reliable sources have shared new details about the upcoming iPhone 16 Pro’s camera. Here’s what we know so far:
- Camera Upgrades: The iPhone 16 Pro will have a new 48-megapixel ultra-wide sensor. This is the same camera setup as the iPhone 16 Pro Max, which means both Pro models will feature this sensor. Both models will also include the tetraprism lens, which offers 5x optical zoom. Currently, this lens is only available on the Pro Max in the iPhone 15 series.
- Video Features: For the first time, the iPhone 16 Pro will support shooting videos in 4K resolution at 120 frames per second (fps). The iPhone 15 can only shoot 4K at 60fps. Users will also be able to record ProRes 4K videos at 120fps when connected to external storage. QuickTake, a feature for recording videos quickly, will be upgraded from 1080p to 4K.
- 8K Video: There are indications that Apple has tested 8K video recording with the iPhone 16 Pro. Since 8K resolution is about 35 megapixels, both the wide and ultra-wide lenses have enough resolution to support it. The new A18 Pro chip also seems capable of handling 8K video. However, it’s not clear if Apple will enable 8K recording in the final production models. It’s possible that Apple might reserve this feature for next year’s iPhones, which are rumored to come with a new, higher resolution zoom lens.
- Additional Features:
- The iPhone 16 Pro will support the JPEG-XL format for capturing high-quality photos with both lossy and lossless compression.
- Users will be able to pause and resume video recording directly in the Camera app.
- There will be a new feature to reduce wind noise in videos.
- The new Photographic Styles will have improved machine learning to better preserve skin tones.
- A new mode will allow capturing Spatial Photos, which can be viewed in 3D using the Apple Vision Pro headset.
These updates promise to bring significant enhancements to the iPhone 16 Pro’s camera capabilities.
More details on the Camera Button
The iPhone 16 models are expected to include a new feature called the “Camera Button,” though the final marketing name might be different. Here’s how it will work based on current information:
- Touch-Sensitive Functionality: The Camera Button will be touch-sensitive, meaning it will respond to different types of presses and movements.
- Simple Press: A light press on the button will open the Camera app. Users can also choose a third-party camera app to open instead, thanks to the iOS 18 update that allows this customization on the Lock Screen.
- Soft Press: Pressing the button lightly will trigger the camera’s auto-focus feature, helping ensure your photos are sharp and clear.
- Hard Press: Pressing the button firmly will take a photo or start recording a video, making it easy to capture moments quickly.
- Sliding Motion: By sliding your finger across the button, you will be able to adjust settings like zoom or exposure. This feature allows for more control over your shots directly from the button.
Overall, the Camera Button is designed to make taking photos and videos more intuitive and versatile by responding to various types of touches and movements.
