The iPhone 13 brings new cameras and cinematic mode

The iPhone 13 and 13 Mini gets an updated camera system, which is apparent from the new diagonal orientation of the two rear cameras.

In fact, Apple says the new orientation is a result of making more room for a new sensor-based stabilization system which previously was only found on the iPhone 12 Pro Max, reports CNET.

All four models get an improved 12-megapixel main camera and a better ultrawide lens and sensor.

The new hardware along with the new A15 Bionic chip means a handful of improvements and new features, including being able to capture 47% more light.

There is a new cinematic mode to make your videos appear more filmlike.

When using the mode, the camera can lock onto your subject to keep them in focus whether they are standing still or moving.

The iPhone can even anticipate when your subject comes into the frame. Another neat effect is the ability to pull focus from one subject to another.

The iPhone 13 Pro and 13 Pro Max will also gain the ability to capture ProRes videos, which optimizes videos and is especially useful for people who color grade or use editing software like Final Cut Pro X or Adobe Premiere Pro.

ProRes video files take up more space than a regular h.264/h.265 video that, up to now, most iPhones have shot.

ProRes support won't be on the iPhone at launch but is expected to be added later this year.
