- It's that time of year again where I put the new iPhone against a real camera and see the improvements Apple has made. What do you think? Would you still need a real camera or could the new iPhone 12 Pro work for you?
Thanks to @marissaemma, @BriSchof, @Joseph_ Brock_ for helping out on this video.

It’s here! My iPhone 13 Pro Vs Pro Camera - Portrait mode video :) czcams.com/video/GTF9eiGkLRE/video.html
Can I download those pictures you captured! They'd make a great wallpaper
not gonna lie. there's alot of power in that iphone if it can hold its own against the sony. i am flabbergasted.
Only with portraits not with any other styles of photography. Subject always has to be still and can't move. This limits your creativity
@@Youmemba well yes. The iPhone IS marketed towards the portrait enthusiasts. It's not a mirrorless camera it can't do everything.
czcams.com/video/A18i_GsojJo/video.html %
But apple advertised its video recording with fast object moving ?
@@hillsongbest3818 were talking about photography not video. The Sony will destroy the iPhone in video especially low ight. natural depth of field can't be faked in the iphone while recording.. well it can but it looks obviously fake.
The Sony is better but the iPhone is scary close in comparison.
yes !
Frr
wow yeah incredible for a smartphone...
Oh no !
Definitely
Can we appreciate her, she’s beautiful.
Men will be always men
😂😂
Yeah she is
@@hahahehe8863 yea lol😂
Too pale, looks like one of Henry the 8ths wives
She is too artificial 😅🔫
This is so goood! I love your comparison photos, it’s really interesting seeing them side by side.
Hey it's Julia! I watch your videos as well 🙂

The better camera is the one you have in your pocket when that priceless photo opportunity happens.
So very true
that's literally the only reason i'm willing to spend that much money on this iphone.. as a photographer i feel awful when I miss a cool shot because obvs i'm not able to carry my camera everywhere I go
Make sure to pick up my Lightroom Presets www.classicports.com
Make sure to check out a New video I just posted Comparing Apple Pro RAW vs Sony RAW in a portrait shoot! czcams.com/video/1IREjvl2fnE/video.html
the fact that it's hard to tell is terrifyingly terrific!
That’s what I was thinking. I am actually shocked! I want that iPhone
@@user-dl8qt8dn2w 12 pro is hardly less excellent, 12 pro max means you have to carry a huge huge phone with you at all times. I held it yesterday in the Apple Store and it was just oversized for normal use, in my opinion. I bought the 12 pro.
@@user-dl8qt8dn2w Mine is on order. I have a Canon 5D Mk4 (and Mk3) but I'll be using my 12 Pro Max a lot more instead ..
@@bernios3446 lmao, I bought the iphone 12 pro max.. I have to agree its huge, I have tiny hands however.. Its the best for taking photos/ videos for projects! Just personal preference really
If you ask me. I would like to have even bigger 12 pro max🤣 but yeah I have quite big hands.
The amount of the detail the iphone can capture on that tiny sensor is impressive.
The camera is obviously way better, but still... Impressed from the iPhone. That edge detection got light years better in just a few years
Absolutely
if using on social media it is not that way better.
Yeah, the edge detection on my iPhone 11 isn’t too great
@@hofra01 ...What?
Wait till Apple drops RAW with iOS 14.3!
Yeah I’ve been playing around with it. I have the beta installed.
@@LeeZavitz we're waiting for your review and comparison vid :D
@@LeeZavitz and how good is it in one sentence? 😀🤌
It will not wow you.
@@LeeZavitz just as I thought - in the end it’s still just a mobile phone
Loved this raw review man, thanks for giving it a real test run with no fluff. I realised I was pixel peeping, which tells me that pro cams are almost becoming obsolete. Finally! No need to carry a bulky DSLR while travelling. Thanks mate 👏🥳
I’m no photographer but the iPhone photos are absolutely astonishing for photos taken by a phone.
The professional camera wins clearly but It's incredible how Iphone is really close to that super pro camera.
Amazing content as usual bro, this is the video I've been waiting for a long time.
I'm always gonna say Pro camera is always the best. But that iPhone, a smartphone taking a superb shots out of it. :o
but the fact that it can perform like a PRO camera is unbelievable, i say iphone.
Definitely
Definately
One of the best reviews I've ever watched. Thanks. Good job.
Wow! Love the side by side pics, can hardly tell the difference in some :) Happy with my phone purchase!
I always loved the Pro Max colour balance- the Pro cameras looked a little warmer and washed out- however the details in the close-ups were where the Pro Cams shone! Their megapixels and larger sensor size, lens systems do the better job in bringing out details like eyelashes, makeup contours, etc. But kudos to Apple for coming so close with such a teensy camera system on a phone! The fact that its hard to tell is where the testament to Apple engineering is!
DUDE! how do you recreate the same shot both pics? Even with a great model and a steady hand that’s super impressive. Both shots of each are great because it’s not the camera it’s the artist ❤️
I learned a lot more about what the phone can do. I will try them. Thank you.
thank you so much lee zavtiz i have been waiting for this video
They are hard to tell apart, even on my iMac 5k. That alone is mindblowing. They just look great and like a real camera!
Thats insane when a talented models meets an experts photographers, its so satisfying to watch its looks so easy :)
I believe iphone 13 would match the a7 iii with the new hadrware & sensor.
So glad you got the stair shot!!
Thank for this trial I had been looking for it so looooong !!!!
i’d love to see a night photography comparison!
That was fantastically interesting. i loved watching you pose your subject, watching the little tweaks to get an amazing shot. 👏
Never mind the hardware. I love your amazing your directions. Your model is also doing amazing job. Great video.
Really great video! as a photographer i just simply love it and your voice is also very relaxing.
Lol take a healthy drink /ice tea shot every time lee says boom!.
1. Switch outfits.
2. Go into the alley.
3. We're good.
LMAO
@@stephenvsawyer I don't understand...
O wow!! You are amazing! And both you and your model has a good chemistry in terms of work! Amazing shots from the pro camera and pro max. Wishing to have one this Christmas ❤️😇
Great comparison. Love that the pictures are actually good, and not just some random ugly place just to test the camera. Also I like that you showed a few customisations in the iPhone portrait mode
would've appreciate YOUR thoughts on your results ....
I think the Camera has the edge in most, if not all of those, but would never expect otherwise. The thing with the iPhone though, is it is far better than just a phone camera, this is a tool that you can use where a camera might not be allowed, or where you might not feel so safe using a big camera. The results are certainly good enough quality for most situations, even if not quite pro camera quality. The results are out of this world for something you will always have in your pocket.
first time watching your video, right after a minute liked and subscribed. Amazing work!
Incredible images comparison! Well done!
wow she has fashion/editorial face...beautiful
and you took such amazing pictures
Damn the images are hard to tell apart
Great job! Good compositions, and great to see so many comparisons. Shocking to see how good the iPhone is.
Loved this video! Thank you
The model will even make nokia images amazing
تعليقك مضحك اخ العرب ههههه
This is so true, she is so beatiful 😭
It’s hard to differentiate between iPhone and A7iii🤯 Both are great
Really? For me its easy to tell in a second which is which! But the iPhone does a good job, thats true!
And note that the A7III has 24 megapixels, which leads to more details. If it had a 12 megapixel sensor like the iPhone, it would be a different comparison.
@@Quoutub not actually, there's s video comparing the galaxy s20 ultra 108mp mode to the sony 24mp, the sony could still get alot more detail when zooming.
@@coldfiresamurai6333 yeah depend on image sensor size
Great session! It really is crazy how well the iPhone's hold up considering. Real cameras are always better. But WOW.
I loved that video so much I thumbed-up three times.
When turn off the smart hdr, the top will appear hdr.It’s that still the smart hdr or just normal hdr?
Can you do a video about focus live app to test if it works with Lidar?
Yeah I can do something with that
That was cool. Great to see this comparison. I wonder how shooting in RAW will work out when the update releases.
excellent review thanks à lot
I prefer the iPhone images most of the time, but the Sony's are very good too. I guess it could still be worth using a dedicated camera in situations where ergonomics are important.
The iPhone is mighty impressive tbf but the Sony takes the edge. And can I just say your model was amazing, totally love the look in all the shots.
Bri crushed it. I love working with her
@@LeeZavitz looking forward to seeing you two working together once again in the future Lee 👌
I mean, just embrace what you said... the professional 3500$ camera kit takes the >edge< over a frickin smartphone. It should be night and day, but it actually is close as hell. I am really mindboggled by this wizardry. Oh, and of course, Bri was awesome.
@@andreasbuder4417 that kit was much more than $3500 lol. Just the lens is around $3000 haha. Iphone stacked up incredibly well i cant believe it
I am mostly impressed by the color science and the edge detection of the iPhone. It got so much better in mere couple of years & its only gonna get better in a few more years close to perfection.
I know people gonna say it’s impossible to get as good as a DLSR, but with computational photography and optimised sensors, its gonna get there eventually. Just look how far smartphone photography has come just in a few years. Even the current quality we are seeing, we thought it was impossible in the last 5 years or so.
Loved ur photography!!
Dudeeeeee u make a really good work!!
I think phone better as image quality is almost as good for 90% of people and the fact that it’s a phone first and the camera is one of its many uses. And the fact that everyone always has their phone with them and not always a camera. Just a lot easier and minimal Lightroom iOS editing makes an image that’s on your phone already and it’s ready to share out weighs the fact that a big pro camera is slightly better. The camera phone tech is way out pacing slr technology.
I feel like portrait mode is what black and white TVs were in the 50s. Look at the crazy 8k oled TVs we have now. That’s where computational photography is headed
@@LeeZavitz Yes there's a lot of potential here. You should have tried out close up shots, the LiDAR is super low resolution, but at close ups it results in a much more natural bokeh, see the shot here: czcams.com/video/w3B3-qlxfi8/video.html
@@LeeZavitz This is an excellent analogy to make. I'm far from saying that phones take bad pictures or that portrait mode is bad. It's gonna keep getting better and better and high end digital cameras are gonna be much more niche products in the (not so distant) future. Or products that only enthusiasts really want to take advantage of.
Even at this point, there's almost zero reason for the average person to buy a camera. Unless you want to learn about the craft or the process or want to do stuff like wildlife photography or some other sort of specific photography based hobby.
The areas where phones still lack is in resolving fine detail (ie. the models skin and eyebrows, etc) and in the hyper HDR and sharpening they tend to apply to photos, as well as recreating the same perspective as a long focal length lens (ie. 135mm and above), especially for headshots or close ups.
HOWEVER, if you're posting a pic at 1080 pixels or 1350 pixels (the max supported by insta), that fine detail isn't able to be resolved anyway. I'm all for smartphone cameras getting better! I use my smartphone a hell of a lot for day to day stuff.
If your only posting your photos in social media, phones are already good enough, even for pros
I believe that IPhone 12 pro max held its own up against that sony a7
Appreciate your work mate..
Gud 1👍
❤️❤️❤️very good shoot mr
To see them side by side shows to me that it depends on light or motiv which of both cameras has the better photo,
to me 50 : 50. With a portrait often the camera shows a more natural colour, but as far as i know, that
also depends on the camera. An iphone would be better for me because of the weight and easy handling.
3:35 I literally thought you want to swap outfits with her... I was like: Ok, that's going to be fun!
Great Video man
Sick photos man. GJ
These pro cam v phone cam videos make me laugh. You're NEVER going to go better than the pro cam, but who is going to carry one with them at all times? the iPhone comes extremely close, and the best thing about the iPhone, is that you can do a multitude of other 'things' on it that you can't with the pro cam, it's quarter the price of the Sony, and you can take it anywhere.....great video btw :)
Dang, smartphones get mindboggingly good... I really can’t believe what I see. Dang Dang Dang...
Superb portrait photos, bravo to Madame. The similarities are so close between the 2 devices. here we have the reference standard and the jewel 💎 maybe in my pocket.
Great Video! Very useful
Hahaha! Watching this video on my 12pro max 😂
In the next iPhone software update, you'll be able to shoot in RAW, so post processing should be improved as well!
Yeah I have it installed :)
@@LeeZavitz Did it make a big difference for you?
No. It’s not really any difference over shooting raw with other apps. Only thing I noticed was more noise reduction baked into the raw file. Kind of disappointing. I need to try different scenarios though
@@LeeZavitz I've heard you can shoot RAW using the camera in Lightroom. That might be another option for you to try.
@@LeeZavitz This would be surprising. Did you try raw in low light conditions? Google's HDR+ raw is definitely totally different than 3rd party app dng files with the same exposure time and gain.
Great work. Thanks!
Thanks for your video, that help me a lot for choosing.
Wait for the new ios update. It will enable iphone to shoot in raw 👌🏼
Dope content bro! Photos area really good! The iPhone is oversharpening the face. What are you thinking about the size of the iPhone, Lee? I haven´t had the chance to test it in person but it seems that this phone is more like a mini tablet... thats crazy. I can see it by how you are holding it in your hands :-)
And btw the girl is awesome!
It’s massive. I’m personally not a huge phone guy. But I know some people love them. The iPhone mini is more my thing to be honest
I have been using A7III for a year and now waiting for my 12 pro max to come! Very good comparison. Thank you!!!
Very good comparative study.
wow. without pixel peeping, it is looking good. i know 99% of my friends will not even notice and will be very happy. will be interesting when pro-raw comes out and see how much flexibility does it really give in post.
I'm actually shook with how good the iPhone has improved with taking photos.
So good see these long and cool little differences!!! I’m really really impressed by the pro Max!
Everyone needs a photographer like he 👏
put a 85mm lens on and say bye to iphone
But U still cant watch this video on Sony A7ii, 12 Pro Max can 🤣
I'm impressed. But I don't like that sharpness of the Iphone. It's a bit too harsh for my liking :) But yea it's definitely useable!
raw may solve this issue
@@jessiewald4076 You dont know Apple if you think that. the RAW thats coming to iPhone is RAW + Apple’s horrifying sharpening. Thats what Apple is bringing. theyre not bringing raw RAW
@@Mistygio You can soften the photo in post easily already in Lightroom. Pro Raw will make this even more effective just for you :)
A great comparison.
I’m really surprised by just how good the iPhone images were.
It will never replace my pro gear, but knowing I can get great images with a device in my pocket is awesome.
“Go change outfit and then we’ll go to the alley” sounds like something from a scary movie🤣, love the video.👍
The image quality looks identical, can’t tell them apart!
Then you need to get your eyes checked
@@rafael6693 or maybe you just can’t stomach the fact that the iPhone 12 Pro Max is as good as the expensive Pro Camera camera you paid thousands for!
@@grahamsavage2270 i bought the iPhone 12 but i am not blind. The camera is better then the iphone more crisp, better detailing and shadows.
@@grahamsavage2270 agree
I think iphone camera feels pro when handled with pros
Awesome comparison. Superb
Incredible photos! The amount detail you see on the coat in all the iPhone photos is probably Deep Fusion doing its thing.
I don't know but I'm seeing more details on the iPhone..
Lol same
Sharpening my friends
yes oversharpening and compression artifacts - the sony camera captures the full skin complexion and has soft color and shadows > its more realistic. The light in the pictures is well choosen, if you have less light the iphone falls apart
Photographer should Be Pro: camera is pro or not doest matter that much
It does matter.
A pro photographer needs a pro camera to match his skills.
Thanks fir the great video. How do you fake a regular shot look like portrait mode on the iPhone settings. Is it the regular photo app settings or are you using another app for that.
Wow!! The images from the pro max look super good! Great to be able to have that in your pocket to use anywhere. But I would always prefer to shoot with the real deal. Were all these images SOOC with no edit?? I’d like to see your edits on them if so... Great vid 👏🏼
If the iPhone camera got more pixels it would look closer to the Sony DSLR wish it would come with 24 Megapixel
I think 24mp would be perfect
@@michaelmiller6013 yah specially if you want to print the photo or even view it on a tv or laptop it would look amazing
impossible because the sensor is too small
I mean the iPhone has a Sony sensor after all 😂
Why can't sony release flapship killer and beat iphone ....
1:1 ratio, the iPhone is pretty savage. But coming from an A7rIII, there's no match when it comes to cropping. Probably one of the best comparison videos out there though. Thanks for putting the effort and showing what pictures actually look like zoomed in on the pro max.
Thank you for this video
1:55 iPhone does a good job but still we can see the fine hairs blurred in iPhone at back below her cap and in front fine hairs which are blurred too.
That’s it! Selling my a7iii
Excellent, thank you
I'm impressed with the iphone photos. Pls make MOMENT 58MM lens in the future bro.
