iPhone 13 features notable updates like the XDR Display, Ceramic shield screen, Cinematic Mode on the Camera and the A15 Chip. Apple introduced the most advanced dual camera system ever, durability in the design and last but not least a huge leap in the battery life. We reviewed the phone and come up with striking talking points that you should know before getting the new iPhone 13 as laid out below.
Apple designed a totally new architecture and turned the lenses 45 degrees to fit in the best dual-camera system ever. This came with the biggest Wide camera sensor as well. Secondly, the designers made room for a sensor-shift optical image stabilization which in turn equipped the Ultra Wide camera with a faster sensor.
Presenting Cinematic mode
Filmmakers use a technique called rack focus which means shifting focus from one subject to another so as to guide the audience’s attention in their movies. Now iPhone makes it easy for you to bring the same storytelling technique to your videos.
Take a great photo without spending on shoots.
Night mode senses low-light scenes and automatically adjusts to take bright, clear photos with amazingly rich colors. Portrait mode artfully blurs the background to put the focus on your subject. You can try out six creative lighting effects with a swipe. Smart HDR 4 now recognizes up to four different people in a scene and optimizes contrast, lighting, and even skin tones for each one. So everybody looks their best. The Ultra Wide camera gives you a wide field of view even when you’re right up close to what you’re shooting. So you can capture more of the scene without stepping back.
Introducing Photographic Styles
Create a personal look for your photos. But unlike filters, styles selectively apply adjustments to the right areas, while preserving skin tones. Choose Vibrant to make photos bright and vivid. Rich Contrast for darker shadows and deeper colors. Warm or Cool to accentuate golden or blue undertones.
