2024 here. And just bought a 16 Pro Max. Will be returning it because there isn’t so much to upgrade to, even though I’m coming from a 13 Pro Max. Came here looking for 15 Pro Max camera reviews.
Honestly, comparing these tiny cameras to a normal professional camera is mind blowing. That goes for all other flagship phones as well. We are getting insane photos and video out of cameras 1/10 of the size. Great review 👍🏼
Yeah but you can also get a 400 dollar camera and make similarly good fotos. What makes professional cameras so good is how adaptable they often are with different kind of lenses
Bro.. phone photos might look good on RUclips. But if you compare a DSLR pic and phone pic on the same phone, then you'd say phone photos are from the Stone Age. I'm a Wildlife Bird photographer by the way.
@@skandhaprasath2767 Well, nothing compares to full frame with good glass - that's for sure. Just curious as to your opinion: I know that years ago there was a market for point-and-shoot digital cameras because they were better than cell phone cameras. Is there any role for the compact camera anymore, even by the likes of Fuji, Panasonic and Sony?
You may didn't read about it but: iphone 15 pro uses the same main camera sensor that is in iphone 14 pro, imx 803 which is a year old small sensor that uses old tech by Sony. Sony nowadays advertises a brand new family of mobile sensors which is called LYTIA. In fact O neplus 12 will be the 2nd phone to use it this year. iphone 15 series only advances are fixing the 14 series image processing issues which are over sharpening and crushing the shadows + new processor and colors. Apple is so much about lowering the cost so this is really what they did, a software update, aka smart hdr 5, that could be available to the 14 series via ios 17 to solve its cam issues but they made it the selling point for the iphone 15 series.
Apple did a good job hiding this in the keynote. They said that the iPhone 15 got a 48MP sensor and the 15 Pro got an even better sensor than the iPhone 15 - but they didn't compare against the 14 Pro as they usually do. So, the iPhone 15 got a 48 MP sensor, but not the one from the iPhone 14 Pro.
Apple uses the 90-90 rule with their camera app. They please 90% of the people 90% of the time. Those of us in the 10% range will definitely use a third party camera app so we can control the shutter speed, ISO and white balance. I’d like to see a comparison between the R5 and the 15 Pro Max where you use Reeflex Pro Camera and both cameras shooting RAW. And of course using the 48MP sensor in the 15 Pro Max, therefore it would all be wide angle shots.
Exactly. Adding a third party app is not expensive, and for anyone thinking you shouldn't need to (or don't want to) do that, well, that's your choice. Presumably you also only shoot JPEG on your fancy camera and don't ever edit in a 3rd party app, like Lightroom! There are so many photo apps for the iPhone that you should not have any trouble finding one that extracts that little bit more than the standard Apple consumer App does. Like you you say, 90% of the time it does a great (amazing) job. For the other 10% I do use Reeflex Pro.
It's 2024, adding an option to enable advanced features will not make anyone unhappy. They have this option in Safari, you can enable advanced/developer options or use it out of the box as it is. iOS camera app needs an update to control basic/essential pro photography adjustments like ISO, shutter etc.
Fantastic! I look forward to your review every year. I often wonder why I'm carrying so much stuff!! Do you carry a 24-70 also? Lastly if I may - when you do the print comparison, could you pls zoom in to show the differences. Would really help understand why people make their choices. Thanks for all you do!
Alex - I just found your channel - and I love your work. As a photographer myself, I appreciate how you cut through all the BS and get to the point, all while making a fun to watch video, with great editing and music to boot. Nice work sir - and I am now subscribed.
Incredible video man! I can see how you tried your best to keep the images looking similar to each other and came up with the best camera comparison I came across. I watched more than 15 so far.
Some people misunderstood the message of this video and says only professional grade DSLR can beat an iPhone. No, even a budget kit can beat an iPhone image... Or any other phone ofc
I think ability to shoot H265 LOG is the primary improvement in the 15 Pro, it's so big I initially bought a 15 and took it back just to have LOG. It allows you to use the iPhone as a real second camera, that's huge and shouldn't be dismissed as a small difference - I use h265 LOG with the black magic app.
Thanks for sharing! While watching this video I was thinking maybe I should get the iPhone 14 Pro? However I would like to try shooting in log and not have ridiculously huge files. Also I am Mac based which I think I read that H265 works well with? What size iPhone 15 pro did you get, 128 GB, 256 GB, 512GB? Do you use an external recording drive with your iPhone 15 Pro?
@@PeterSchramm3 14 Pro can't shoot in log. I got the 15 Pro 128GB but I wish I got 512GB, I shoot H265 log internally using the blackmagick app, external recording is a bit clunky.
My biggest concern is keeping the coating on my iPhone lens from wearing off and causing haze. My last iPhone (12) had significant haze by the end of its use life. Any recommendations to protect the lenses on the iPhone?
Great video! I'm going on vacation next month and was trying to pack light and bring only one lens, but I was struggling to choose between my 35 or my 24-70. This video made me realize that my smaller, lighter, and faster 35 is the best way to go since I've already got a great zoom on me in the 15 Pro.
Fantastic video! Is there any change you can provide the comparison pictures in higher resolution? Judging image qualitfy just from a youtube video is quite different to looking at the file itself in my experience
The biggest problem with cell phone cameras is that they are just horrible to hold and to control the settings, not to mention that it is a problem if you get a call when you are composing a shot. There is no doubt that professional cameras can be made smaller, but what is really important for the pro photographers are the grip and the setting controls, and a cell phone is just "anatomically incorrect" for taking photos - or even to make calls. As an amateur photographer, I will continue to use cameras designated for that, and will only use a cell phone when I do not have a proper camera with me, or when only taking snapshots.
You're not a pro photographer but want to tell them what they need. A pro photographer with an iPhone 7 would blow your face clear off the body if you had the latest tech in photography
@@3DaysInWith 1500 you can buy a Nikon Z30 + a couple of good lenses,the more you pay the more features and quality you get(but not Leica), a Pro is not going to a wedding to take photos with iPhone but a non pro will use the iPhone and is enough
It's literally the same camera hardware. The only differences are in software (Apple scam) and the possibility to shoot in LOG on external storage with the 15 pro
Had the 14 Pro from last year september till this years release of 15 Pro Max. Been using my 15 Pro Max and the images and videos are stunning. Still a bit better than the 14 Pro, which is pretty nice. After viewing your shots it really impresses me, that my 1500€ Phone can shot pretty much 95% of the Quality of the R5. Thats so insane for its size. Great video. Don't know why you "only" have 40k Subs :(
The fact that we have to try and guess which photo is which really shows how amazing phone cameras have become. Okay, phone cameras have artistic restrictions, but they win hands down for convenience.
Yea, but i dunno. Thats just not how my experience with them has been. Use an iphone 13pro. Ive always taken images with them before ever getting a camera recently, but i gotta be frank with you. My trouble starts when enlarging the images, even a little bit. It always gives me that abhorrent “smushed” look as a results of that tiny sensor. Even before having ever owned a professional camera, i hated it. I want wallpaper worthy, grand images that i zoom a bit into and enjoy, something that looks real even before any editing happens. A camera can give me that. An iphone? Im just not sure if what im seeing is the same image i took. I have no control over what it has done to my image after all.
You mentioned that you lived on the road and couldn’t use Apple log video because of storage space. USB C cable and an external SSD drive are all you need to off load your large files from the iPhone 15 Pro Max. This is actually a great upgrade. I do agree with your comments regarding the camera being similar to the 14 Pro Max. Thank you for the great content!
Oh it's not a matter of having the space to record. It's how much the footage takes up in total. Having to backup and manage those files. Simply not worth it.
The difference between HDR at 12:37 and LOG at 12:38 is amazing. I wish there was a setting in photo mode too on the iPhone camera to disable that HDR look you see at 12:37 and in most heif photos to obtain more neutral photos like your edited log file
I went from the 13 pro max to 15 pro max as it was upgrade time for me. It really impressed me. Watching your video I remain impressed. I honestly expected the R5 images would have been very obvious. I didn't pay attention to the 14 at all so I assumed the images would be a little more noticeable, at least some of the time. I use my iphone for wider shots instead of buying a wide lens for my camera. Great video!!
Hey Mark, thanks for posting. I still hold a 13 pro max and I'm on the fence to switch to 15 promax. For all I've seen, the only reason to switch from the 13 is the new Zoom, but I regret it's still on 12MP... any further comments why you're so happy to have switched? Cheers! and thanks!!
Just found your channel, and I love a challenge. I have not watched past 18:36. Here are my thoughts. First, I was not necessarily trying to discern which unit took which shot. I decided to simply pick the images that I thought looked most natural to me as follows: For the first set taken in the rock arch, I picked B; For the second set taken of the autumn leaves, I picked C; For the third set taken of the fjord, I picked B; For the fourth set taken of the people on the boat, I picked B; For the fifth set taken of the seascape, vertically, I picked C. Now, I'm going to watch the end of your presentation and see what is what... I am prepared to be surprised.
So, I wasn't as surprised as I was prepared to be. It looks like I picked the R5 exclusively. I think the biggest determining factors for me were sharpness (digital sharpening artifacts, and colour). Colour was noticeably poor in the people shot on the iPhone image. Haloing was obvious in the fjord shot, and in most of the other images, edges were simply too hard on the phone images.
@@AlexArmitage I turned the resolution up and then looked for the things I like: smooth (soft) transitions, more subtle tones, and a less sharpened feel. I will say that I really had to look hard on some of the images, and I flipped back and forth between pictures quickly, which really showed the differences. Honestly though the Fjord shot, and the people photo were easy. Look at the mountain to sky transition on the Fjord view, and the magenta colour cast on the shoulders of the man in the people picture. The photo that was hardest to sort out was the one of the autumn leaves. They were all very very close.
I'd love to see a comparison with RAW+ app or some similar app for iPhone to get the professional aspect of shooting the image. I didn't see much differences between the images and actually preferred iPhones when they stood out.
I'm only halfway through the video so far, but it's not clear (unless I missed it) - are you shooting raw with any of the cameras, or just SOOC jpg's? I have a Fujifilm X-T5, and a Pixel 7 Pro phone. I find the Pixel's jpg's are over-sharpened, and I can't get the raw files to look anywhere near as good as my Fujifilm files.
I’m switching from the 13 pro to the 15 pro so a bit of an upgrade I guess (ironically doing that today). Glad to see you made it to Gros Morne…what an amazing place! 📸😎
Hi Alex, great video I enjoyed the comparison. I have noticed the image at 12:15 indicated that it was taken at a focal length of 120 mm, did you zoom in digitally to 5x to achieve the 120mm or you used a different device?
The 5x lens is amazing because it's not to zoomed in and the sensor is actually bigger than the 3x sensor you get on the regular pro model, with 3-D stabilization, I love how the HDR is mind-blowing on the 15 compared to the 14. Love this video amazing work ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉.
I prefer the old 3X 77mm focal range for portraiture and the 5X being a 120mm equivalent makes that more difficult (you have to be significantly further from your subject for the same framing)... the problem is now the iPhone 15 Pro Max uses the main camera with a digital crop to shoot in the 77mm focal range the quality is significantly worse than the old optical 3X lens on the previous years Pro models. I know its subjective and people wanted more reach... but at what expense?
@@canyonblue737-8 It's not that far relax I don't get that problem with my phone I like the compression. But I get it it's about far it's atleast better than what Samsung gives you no good sender small lens and no portrait mode.
@@canyonblue737-8 I have the 15 Pro Max (upgraded from an older Xs) and am thinking about picking up a 14 Pro refurb as well because I really do miss that 77m range. I've just returned from 4 weeks vacation and so many times 2x was too wide and 5x was way too long. I think the 14 Pro and 15 Pro Max would make great companion cameras.
I also shoot with the R5 and iPhone 14 Pro Max. Even before I watched your video I decided I would not be upgrading my phone this year. I do like shooting more video with my iPhone than the R5. And if I'm out doing a long hike or riding my bike I won't be lugging the R5 around that's for sure. My iPhone is used when it's most appropriate for me and unless I'm needing to share the photo right away I shoot in raw mode. I just downloaded the Blackmagic camera app but haven't spent much time on it. Thanks for sharing your detailed analysis.
I use the apps Halide and Spectre on my iPhone when shooting RAW. These two apps allow more user control over the image. Spectre is great when shooting waterfalls or streams. Still not on the same level as my DSLR, however, I don’t have a pocket big enough to carry my DSLR like I can my iPhone.
Great video, thank you! Certainly is amazing what the phones can do. You mentioned that using video and log with the iPhone was impractical because of the amount of storage use. How about using a small Samsung T7 or T9 with usb-c while you are recording?
That ends up kind of defeating the purpose of convenience. Also it still doesn't help save storage as my limit isn't the phone storage. it's the amount of storage I have with me living in my car :P
Im a bit confused, videos that are come from log are washed out, professional videos, usually have mellow editing also, so in reality is very little editing I have to do to a log footage. I still have my 14pro, Im thinking on using Moment's log option for those days with crazy contrast in Florida, I do lots of videos of me kayaking, it'll be nice to have less blown out videos. Thanks, lets hope 16pro makes a great comeback!
Another banger Alex. I love these comparison videos you do. Looks like the only reason to move to iPhone 15 is the usb c (I think I can manage to carry an extra cable for a while longer and save the AUD$2,050). I think I would print the photo of the people on the ferry. I love that shot. The only thing that I could tell were the hairs on the back of the gentleman's neck - so although I guessed right, I think I could easily haver gone the other way. Oh, and by the way I bought a couple of the maven magnetic filters you did a video on. They are wonderful and I love them - great quality and so easy to use compared to filters I've used in the past.
If i'm upgrading from an iPhone SE (2020), in your opinion which phone would you suggest, the 14 Pro Max or the 15 Pro Max? (I'm accutely aware that either is a helluvan upgrade)
Would be pretty great if you get s23 ultra and pixel 8pro and do this same text ... I think cellphone comparo vids are more in demand since more people own cellphone than r5 or something professional. My 2 cents ... Hate the nose ring otherwise you're beautiful ❤️
I just switched from the s23 ultra to a 15 pro max and I’m absolutely blown away with the cameras. To be honest I haven’t even turned my dslr since I got my s22 ultra.
@@abobonickname5696ultra does NOT have a better camera… the ultra doesn’t even have a better camera than the iPhone 11… time for you to take your dose of facts this morning.
@@abobonickname5696 it definitely has a higher zoom than the 15 pro max but the cameras seem to be way better on the iPhone for most pictures I’ve been taking. Well to be clear me saying s23 was a typo I meant s22.
I tend to upgrade every 2 years, more or less. If I owned a 14 Pro, I'd have waited to see what next year holds. As it is, I was on the 13 Pro, and the upgrade was warranted. I also tend to prefer a smaller form factor and have never owned a Pro Max as it's too big, too unbalanced for me and not warranted; with the 15 it was the right combination of extra battery, larger screen, reduced weight, curved edges and stabilised 5x lens that pushed me up to a Max and it's great. Zero issues from the first morning of release, and I love it.
Remember, you are looking at both images after going through Google's compression and downsizing. So trying to do real comparisons is off the table. Phone cameras can be pretty good at their native focal lengths, but anything special (long telephoto particularly) is strongly limited. While the sensor is technically 48MP, the Airy limit due to diffraction on that small lens means you do NOT have a true 48MP image in terms of actual detail. It does, however provide some assistance the the software image processing, so the image LOOKS better than it actually is.
very relaxing video, love this calmer style compared to the other reviewers. Not much of a photography guy, but you earned my sub - looking forward to your other content!
For me as a non professional watching it on a phone with RUclips compression, the photos look almost identical. I could guess the pro camera only in this shot: 22:26. But IMO Pro in the name of the iphone is misleading. Iphone Pro is just an Iphone and Iphone Standard is an Iphone Limited without one camera and some features. To make a Pro Iphone they need to give all these controls over shutter speed and so on, then it will be Iphone Pro. But even as it is, having such a camera in a phone is cool.
It was great to watch that video and to make the test. I have done it to see which camera made the picture that I prefer! And it was the 15 for me! It was in my project to buy one!
The difference is very much seen on large screen and the compression ratio in the final output for both and color depth .. even though smartphones gone wild and specially iphone 15 using davinci resolve language is just crazy
would be interesting to see a similar test with older professional dslr's since most phones are $1000-$1500 now, would be interesting to see how they compare to older dslrs that cost way less than the phone. Modern phones are amazing at wide open 1.7, if your old and were around when 3MP cameras were new and the first DSLRs came out, its crazy how far we have come. Pro cameras are still better with physical buttons, start up speed, zoom, changeable lenses, durability(cant drop your iphone lol), etc, etc, but phones have come so far its pretty awesome.
Love my iPhone 15 pro max. Takes great pics. You can change the aperture in portrait mode. Works great. I’ve even blown up pics to 16x20 on metal & they are spot on. That said though I just bought a canon R6 mark2. Love it & still learning slowly
Computational photography is really closing the gap on the big camera manufacturers. R5 is $3,500 for camera body alone and the images and video is about the same (in most circumstances).
Yeah but the difference in the kinds of photos shown in this video between an R100, R10 or R5 will be marginal at best. Professional and prosumer DSLRs and MILCs will really mainly improve upon lower and middle priced cameras in focus performance, burst speeds, burst buffers, low light performance, dual card slots, build quality, weather sealing, viewfinder quality, video performance, etc.. They really shine in tough shooting conditions - tracking something fast, shooting in poor light, being out in the weather. Like, an R100 or an iPhone will struggle shooting a bird taking off at dusk, an R5 will track it without problem, and will likely give you a burst of mostly in focus shots that have enough dynamic range to resolve everything you'd want. Professionals mainly need these cameras because they are reliable, if you know how to use them 99% of the shots you take will be good. Just shooting landscape in decent light you'll get 95% of the way to the R5s quality with a 10 year old DSLR. The value proposition of any professional camera or lens is miserable compared to entry level gear, but people earn a living with them so it's not that big of a deal.
These are pretty controlled situations. If you try to shoot something at the limits like indoor sports, or for example my kids trick or treating at night, a high level body with the fastest lens possible is going to blow away the iphone.
@@ChaplainDMK Which means a phone will meet 80% of people needs and cameras will be further pushed into smaller and smaller niches. Which means a lot of things if you are talking about the camera industry. Some players will exit, less choice, higher prices, no innovation.
@@jasonblevins9327 Controlled, but they are common situations. No one is going to buy an R5 so they can shoot their kids trick or treat for $6,000 body and lens. That is the point I was making. Camera manufactures have failed to delivery innovation that would keep them relevant in the 80% rule. I say this has a person that likes cameras and prefers a camera over a phone.
Beautiful video. However I do not agree that there are no differences between the camera. The showed examples were all in pretty bright conditions. The 15 Pro excells in lower light situations and in portrait mode visibly from the 14 Pro.
Hey! I wanted to start by saying that I really like your photographic sensibility and it's clear that you really enjoy what you do. As for the depth of field on the iPhone - just take a photo in Portrait mode, click Edit and there is an option to adjust the aperture, so you can blur or sharpen the background ;) Cheers!
I love seeing the accessibility of such powerful technology become more and more widespread... I have recently been reflecting on the advancement of communications technologies over the past decade as most everyone now has a camera in their pocket. And for those of us who are keen and excited about exploring photography and videography, watching these technologies become so powerful and able to fit in our pockets is mind-blowing! I would be blown away if it ever worked out that we could get clear 400mm shots from a phone, or a phone with global shutter! It truly is incredible to think of the stories and content that may be shared 30... 60... 100 years from now 😍
The 15 pro has a little bit more detail…same sensor but different internal processor…so yes it does have an overall stronger processor to get out a little bit more detail on the same sensor….so they are different just not that much
Love your content! I think the camera upgrade from 14 Pro to 15 Pro is reasonable amount. It’s a phone, not a camera, although it can do a lot of things that camera does… so still don’t forget there are other things for a phone to upgrade. Also, we don’t change our phone every year, just like photographers don’t change cameras every year😅
I love Newfoundland, I worked there for a while some time ago. I need to tell you that it's pronounced so as to rhyme with understand, or as they say locally, (with a wink) reprimand. Emphasis on the last syllable.
RUclips algortihm took me here and I am blown away by the quality of content and production. Very nice, informative and fun video to watch, subscribing right away! :)
Thank you for filling us in so acurately with all the 'real' advantages of the new iPhone compared to the 14Pro Max and your R5. That was fun to watch and made me think again before moving on to the next purchase. .
Alex, Just came across your channel on RUclips. Have a 13 mini and am considering an iPhone 15 Pro. Love how you selected these comparisons, with the variety of conditions, light, using a polarizer, etc. Well done! We though out here in RUclips viewer land, even watching on a 27" iMac, don't see all the details you do, before it goes through the RUclips compression business. I'd welcome expounding more in future videos on what you are able to see/distinguish from one model versus the other, as we may not be able to see much or any of those via RUclips. Thanks again, I've subscribed.
Alex, Supposedly when we switch the main camera of the pro and switch it to 28 or 35mm field of view, the camera up-resolves the photo file to the same file size as the original 24mm view. By any chance did you compare how the photos look at those different settings to see if image quality changes? Thanks, Craig
Thank you Alex for this comparison. I am about to buy an Iphone 15 Max pro, I am just wandering if the camera can catch the northern lights? Your reply is highly appreciated.
Thank you for taking the time to do this! That boat image of the people was also the one I struggled with the most, phone did a great job! Got the other ones right BUT its certainly close! Great points and very honest that there is basically no difference between the 14 and 15
I have an iPhone 15 Pro and whilst I can take some fantastic photos with it, it’s also extremely limited when it comes to action photos, wildlife, etc when it just isn’t any good at all.

Yes! Thank you so much. I will do a better job this year shooting detail shots of the prints
Alex - I just found your channel - and I love your work. As a photographer myself, I appreciate how you cut through all the BS and get to the point, all while making a fun to watch video, with great editing and music to boot. Nice work sir - and I am now subscribed.
Welcome Ryan and thank you!
I have the 15 pro and I have no complaints. It’s beautiful, fast, bright, has pro camera’s, pro features, usb c and great speakers. Winning!
haha pro cameras? Sure
Mine overheated and i had to return it
@@explorewithfestus
You should've updated the iOS. It's a known bug with an old version 17 that causes it to overheat. Problem is fixed now.
Incredible video man! I can see how you tried your best to keep the images looking similar to each other and came up with the best camera comparison I came across. I watched more than 15 so far.
Thats a lot of videos and these are kind words. Thank you!
Some people misunderstood the message of this video and says only professional grade DSLR can beat an iPhone. No, even a budget kit can beat an iPhone image... Or any other phone ofc
Thanks!
thanks so much for this Randy. Helps much more than you know!
just got my iPhone 15 Pro. Your video does a great job comparing it to a larger camera with real images! Many thanks!
Thanks!
I think ability to shoot H265 LOG is the primary improvement in the 15 Pro, it's so big I initially bought a 15 and took it back just to have LOG. It allows you to use the iPhone as a real second camera, that's huge and shouldn't be dismissed as a small difference - I use h265 LOG with the black magic app.
Thanks for sharing! While watching this video I was thinking maybe I should get the iPhone 14 Pro? However I would like to try shooting in log and not have ridiculously huge files. Also I am Mac based which I think I read that H265 works well with? What size iPhone 15 pro did you get, 128 GB, 256 GB, 512GB? Do you use an external recording drive with your iPhone 15 Pro?
@@PeterSchramm3 14 Pro can't shoot in log. I got the 15 Pro 128GB but I wish I got 512GB, I shoot H265 log internally using the blackmagick app, external recording is a bit clunky.
My biggest concern is keeping the coating on my iPhone lens from wearing off and causing haze. My last iPhone (12) had significant haze by the end of its use life. Any recommendations to protect the lenses on the iPhone?
might be the best irl test to see the capabilities of the 15 pro yet, impeccable content right here
Great video! I'm going on vacation next month and was trying to pack light and bring only one lens, but I was struggling to choose between my 35 or my 24-70. This video made me realize that my smaller, lighter, and faster 35 is the best way to go since I've already got a great zoom on me in the 15 Pro.
Fantastic video! Is there any change you can provide the comparison pictures in higher resolution? Judging image qualitfy just from a youtube video is quite different to looking at the file itself in my experience
The biggest problem with cell phone cameras is that they are just horrible to hold and to control the settings, not to mention that it is a problem if you get a call when you are composing a shot. There is no doubt that professional cameras can be made smaller, but what is really important for the pro photographers are the grip and the setting controls, and a cell phone is just "anatomically incorrect" for taking photos - or even to make calls. As an amateur photographer, I will continue to use cameras designated for that, and will only use a cell phone when I do not have a proper camera with me, or when only taking snapshots.
You're not a pro photographer but want to tell them what they need. A pro photographer with an iPhone 7 would blow your face clear off the body if you had the latest tech in photography
@@3DaysInWith 1500 you can buy a Nikon Z30 + a couple of good lenses,the more you pay the more features and quality you get(but not Leica), a Pro is not going to a wedding to take photos with iPhone but a non pro will use the iPhone and is enough
Nice video comparison! Beautiful locations 🤩 so would you not recommend upgrading from 14 Pro to the 15 Pro purely for camera upgrades?
It's literally the same camera hardware. The only differences are in software (Apple scam) and the possibility to shoot in LOG on external storage with the 15 pro
Probably not
@@AlexArmitagewhat about 16 pro 😮🎉and
Amazing video Alex! I appreciate the breakdown of composition and framing in some of the shots you’re taking. Also lovely bg music
Thanks so much Gabriel
Had the 14 Pro from last year september till this years release of 15 Pro Max. Been using my 15 Pro Max and the images and videos are stunning. Still a bit better than the 14 Pro, which is pretty nice.
After viewing your shots it really impresses me, that my 1500€ Phone can shot pretty much 95% of the Quality of the R5. Thats so insane for its size.
Great video. Don't know why you "only" have 40k Subs :(
Because of the annoying music, he has been using. He also needs to speak up a bit clearly and slow down a bit. The rings are also one of the reasons.
@@NewWalls98 huh? the music he uses fits perfectly and really enhances the atmosphere, and his microphone is really good and its clear what hes saying
The fact that we have to try and guess which photo is which really shows how amazing phone cameras have become. Okay, phone cameras have artistic restrictions, but they win hands down for convenience.
Yea, but i dunno. Thats just not how my experience with them has been. Use an iphone 13pro.
Ive always taken images with them before ever getting a camera recently, but i gotta be frank with you. My trouble starts when enlarging the images, even a little bit.
It always gives me that abhorrent “smushed” look as a results of that tiny sensor. Even before having ever owned a professional camera, i hated it. I want wallpaper worthy, grand images that i zoom a bit into and enjoy, something that looks real even before any editing happens. A camera can give me that. An iphone? Im just not sure if what im seeing is the same image i took. I have no control over what it has done to my image after all.
You mentioned that you lived on the road and couldn’t use Apple log video because of storage space. USB C cable and an external SSD drive are all you need to off load your large files from the iPhone 15 Pro Max. This is actually a great upgrade. I do agree with your comments regarding the camera being similar to the 14 Pro Max. Thank you for the great content!
Oh it's not a matter of having the space to record. It's how much the footage takes up in total. Having to backup and manage those files. Simply not worth it.
Best review yet. Actually unbiased. 👍
Would love to try the new pixel
Do you think the camera's and video in the iphones are better than the samsung ultra phones?
best video on iphone cameras I seen so far, great work mate!
thank you!
The difference between HDR at 12:37 and LOG at 12:38 is amazing. I wish there was a setting in photo mode too on the iPhone camera to disable that HDR look you see at 12:37 and in most heif photos to obtain more neutral photos like your edited log file
Actually there is. Just go to iPhone settings and find there camera tab, then set it up as you wish
4:28 when hes snuck up on in a "natural moment" by the camera he set up a tripod, with no one for miles 🤣
I went from the 13 pro max to 15 pro max as it was upgrade time for me. It really impressed me. Watching your video I remain impressed. I honestly expected the R5 images would have been very obvious. I didn't pay attention to the 14 at all so I assumed the images would be a little more noticeable, at least some of the time.
I use my iphone for wider shots instead of buying a wide lens for my camera.
Great video!!
Thanks so much Mark
I did upgrade from iPhone SE2020. Definitely worth the upgrade😂
Hey Mark, thanks for posting. I still hold a 13 pro max and I'm on the fence to switch to 15 promax.
For all I've seen, the only reason to switch from the 13 is the new Zoom, but I regret it's still on 12MP... any further comments why you're so happy to have switched? Cheers! and thanks!!
Just found your channel, and I love a challenge. I have not watched past 18:36. Here are my thoughts. First, I was not necessarily trying to discern which unit took which shot. I decided to simply pick the images that I thought looked most natural to me as follows:
For the first set taken in the rock arch, I picked B;
For the second set taken of the autumn leaves, I picked C;
For the third set taken of the fjord, I picked B;
For the fourth set taken of the people on the boat, I picked B;
For the fifth set taken of the seascape, vertically, I picked C.
Now, I'm going to watch the end of your presentation and see what is what... I am prepared to be surprised.
So, I wasn't as surprised as I was prepared to be. It looks like I picked the R5 exclusively. I think the biggest determining factors for me were sharpness (digital sharpening artifacts, and colour). Colour was noticeably poor in the people shot on the iPhone image. Haloing was obvious in the fjord shot, and in most of the other images, edges were simply too hard on the phone images.
You somehow did better through RUclips than I can in Lightroom!
@@AlexArmitage I turned the resolution up and then looked for the things I like: smooth (soft) transitions, more subtle tones, and a less sharpened feel. I will say that I really had to look hard on some of the images, and I flipped back and forth between pictures quickly, which really showed the differences. Honestly though the Fjord shot, and the people photo were easy. Look at the mountain to sky transition on the Fjord view, and the magenta colour cast on the shoulders of the man in the people picture. The photo that was hardest to sort out was the one of the autumn leaves. They were all very very close.
I'd love to see a comparison with RAW+ app or some similar app for iPhone to get the professional aspect of shooting the image. I didn't see much differences between the images and actually preferred iPhones when they stood out.
I'm only halfway through the video so far, but it's not clear (unless I missed it) - are you shooting raw with any of the cameras, or just SOOC jpg's? I have a Fujifilm X-T5, and a Pixel 7 Pro phone. I find the Pixel's jpg's are over-sharpened, and I can't get the raw files to look anywhere near as good as my Fujifilm files.
Raw on everything :) (@1:41)
@@AlexArmitage Thank you!
Just found your channel today…. Subscribed. Going to be watching this channel a bunch. 🤙🏻
Welcome aboard!
I’m switching from the 13 pro to the 15 pro so a bit of an upgrade I guess (ironically doing that today).
Glad to see you made it to Gros Morne…what an amazing place! 📸😎
thats a big jump
Just went from the 12PM to the 15PM. It’s a pretty nice bump. Did some testing yesterday, and I’m pretty impressed by that main sensor.
Why aren't you using Lightroom app to take RAW (DNG) images while having full manual iphone camera control?
Hi Alex, great video I enjoyed the comparison. I have noticed the image at 12:15 indicated that it was taken at a focal length of 120 mm, did you zoom in digitally to 5x to achieve the 120mm or you used a different device?
Edward, the 15 pro max has a 120mm lens instead of 77mm ☺️
@@AlexArmitage Did you use the 15 pro for the shot at 12:15 because I noted on the image info it stated 120mm.
Edward. They were taken with the iPhone 15 Pro Max 120mm lens, yes.@@edwardmhlongo3341
The 5x lens is amazing because it's not to zoomed in and the sensor is actually bigger than the 3x sensor you get on the regular pro model, with 3-D stabilization, I love how the HDR is mind-blowing on the 15 compared to the 14. Love this video amazing work ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉.
thanks buddy
I prefer the old 3X 77mm focal range for portraiture and the 5X being a 120mm equivalent makes that more difficult (you have to be significantly further from your subject for the same framing)... the problem is now the iPhone 15 Pro Max uses the main camera with a digital crop to shoot in the 77mm focal range the quality is significantly worse than the old optical 3X lens on the previous years Pro models. I know its subjective and people wanted more reach... but at what expense?
@@canyonblue737-8 It's not that far relax I don't get that problem with my phone I like the compression. But I get it it's about far it's atleast better than what Samsung gives you no good sender small lens and no portrait mode.
hdr5 is just software as well!!!!
@@canyonblue737-8 I have the 15 Pro Max (upgraded from an older Xs) and am thinking about picking up a 14 Pro refurb as well because I really do miss that 77m range. I've just returned from 4 weeks vacation and so many times 2x was too wide and 5x was way too long. I think the 14 Pro and 15 Pro Max would make great companion cameras.
Your videos are amazing and your soundtrack is always a 10. And you are a great professional! Its a joy to see your work
Thanks pedro. I put so much time into the music for these things, so comments like this are great
I also shoot with the R5 and iPhone 14 Pro Max. Even before I watched your video I decided I would not be upgrading my phone this year. I do like shooting more video with my iPhone than the R5. And if I'm out doing a long hike or riding my bike I won't be lugging the R5 around that's for sure. My iPhone is used when it's most appropriate for me and unless I'm needing to share the photo right away I shoot in raw mode. I just downloaded the Blackmagic camera app but haven't spent much time on it. Thanks for sharing your detailed analysis.
Nice comparisons! I'd be great if you can compare 15 and 14 video, since photography, as you've shown, is virtually identical.
Just find one of the other 1000 comparisons out there…
Hi, great video, thanks, can you please tell me the references of the supports that you are using for the iPhone?
All the gear is in the description if that’s what you’re asking about :)
@@AlexArmitage Thanks !!
I use the apps Halide and Spectre on my iPhone when shooting RAW. These two apps allow more user control over the image. Spectre is great when shooting waterfalls or streams. Still not on the same level as my DSLR, however, I don’t have a pocket big enough to carry my DSLR like I can my iPhone.
Please do the samsung galaxy S24 Ultra. I think it is also a better sensor to compare with the R5
Great video, thank you! Certainly is amazing what the phones can do. You mentioned that using video and log with the iPhone was impractical because of the amount of storage use. How about using a small Samsung T7 or T9 with usb-c while you are recording?
That ends up kind of defeating the purpose of convenience. Also it still doesn't help save storage as my limit isn't the phone storage. it's the amount of storage I have with me living in my car :P
Does iOS have an app where you can do super resolution, what for example a Panasonic S5 can do?
Great video, and awesome content. I need to watch you more often. Thank you for your hard work.
Thanks so much!
you should show the tele and wide to show the difference between iPhones and pro cameras.
Perfect getting started video, all in a short video. Thank you.
You make me wanna be better at taking photos of everything. I love it
Im a bit confused, videos that are come from log are washed out, professional videos, usually have mellow editing also, so in reality is very little editing I have to do to a log footage. I still have my 14pro, Im thinking on using Moment's log option for those days with crazy contrast in Florida, I do lots of videos of me kayaking, it'll be nice to have less blown out videos. Thanks, lets hope 16pro makes a great comeback!
Good job. Above all I admire your lifestyle. It's very hard work to be Landscape photographer. Much impressed. Good luck.
Thanks Chip!
amazing comparison❤ keep doing what u love ❤
Always!
Would be possible to focus stack with iPhone 15 Pro to achieve the depth of field for landscape photography?
For the video, were you using Apple log ProRes 422?
For the specific clips that were recorded in log, yes. Whatever the default ProRes is for apple. 422 sounds right
Another banger Alex. I love these comparison videos you do. Looks like the only reason to move to iPhone 15 is the usb c (I think I can manage to carry an extra cable for a while longer and save the AUD$2,050). I think I would print the photo of the people on the ferry. I love that shot. The only thing that I could tell were the hairs on the back of the gentleman's neck - so although I guessed right, I think I could easily haver gone the other way. Oh, and by the way I bought a couple of the maven magnetic filters you did a video on. They are wonderful and I love them - great quality and so easy to use compared to filters I've used in the past.
Glad you like them Dave! Thanks for the kind words ☺️
Low light photography is amazing with the 15 PM
If i'm upgrading from an iPhone SE (2020), in your opinion which phone would you suggest, the 14 Pro Max or the 15 Pro Max? (I'm accutely aware that either is a helluvan upgrade)
If you’re gonna spend money. Might as well just get the newest one
@@AlexArmitage Yeah that makes sense. Anyway helluva review btw, I’m a new subscriber, keep up the good work 🤙🏿
Would be pretty great if you get s23 ultra and pixel 8pro and do this same text ... I think cellphone comparo vids are more in demand since more people own cellphone than r5 or something professional. My 2 cents ... Hate the nose ring otherwise you're beautiful ❤️
So are you saying that the iPhone 16 will be a Cannon R5 killer, if the 15 is so good currently?
Almost 😅
I just switched from the s23 ultra to a 15 pro max and I’m absolutely blown away with the cameras. To be honest I haven’t even turned my dslr since I got my s22 ultra.
ultra still has the better camera though
@@abobonickname5696ultra does NOT have a better camera… the ultra doesn’t even have a better camera than the iPhone 11… time for you to take your dose of facts this morning.
@@abobonickname5696 the ultra has better zoom, but the iphone's main camera is better
@@abobonickname5696 it definitely has a higher zoom than the 15 pro max but the cameras seem to be way better on the iPhone for most pictures I’ve been taking. Well to be clear me saying s23 was a typo I meant s22.
I just made the same switch as you. Really enjoying it but I really miss the 10x zoom. Apart from that, I am so happy with it!
In your personal opinion, what is the best compact travel camera? Thank you!
The most update phone you can afford
I tend to upgrade every 2 years, more or less. If I owned a 14 Pro, I'd have waited to see what next year holds. As it is, I was on the 13 Pro, and the upgrade was warranted. I also tend to prefer a smaller form factor and have never owned a Pro Max as it's too big, too unbalanced for me and not warranted; with the 15 it was the right combination of extra battery, larger screen, reduced weight, curved edges and stabilised 5x lens that pushed me up to a Max and it's great. Zero issues from the first morning of release, and I love it.
Remember, you are looking at both images after going through Google's compression and downsizing. So trying to do real comparisons is off the table.
Phone cameras can be pretty good at their native focal lengths, but anything special (long telephoto particularly) is strongly limited.
While the sensor is technically 48MP, the Airy limit due to diffraction on that small lens means you do NOT have a true 48MP image in terms of actual detail. It does, however provide some assistance the the software image processing, so the image LOOKS better than it actually is.
where do you get your photos printed large. like panoramas?
Lots of options online. Ill be ordering from nfma for this years comparison
Hi Alex, what is the phone mount you are using on the R5 hot shoe?
geni.us/MantisPod
it's the top part of this.
very relaxing video, love this calmer style compared to the other reviewers.
Not much of a photography guy, but you earned my sub - looking forward to your other content!
Welcome aboard!
For me as a non professional watching it on a phone with RUclips compression, the photos look almost identical. I could guess the pro camera only in this shot: 22:26.
But IMO Pro in the name of the iphone is misleading. Iphone Pro is just an Iphone and Iphone Standard is an Iphone Limited without one camera and some features. To make a Pro Iphone they need to give all these controls over shutter speed and so on, then it will be Iphone Pro.
But even as it is, having such a camera in a phone is cool.
It was great to watch that video and to make the test. I have done it to see which camera made the picture that I prefer! And it was the 15 for me! It was in my project to buy one!
Great to hear!
The difference is very much seen on large screen and the compression ratio in the final output for both and color depth .. even though smartphones gone wild and specially iphone 15 using davinci resolve language is just crazy
would be interesting to see a similar test with older professional dslr's since most phones are $1000-$1500 now, would be interesting to see how they compare to older dslrs that cost way less than the phone. Modern phones are amazing at wide open 1.7, if your old and were around when 3MP cameras were new and the first DSLRs came out, its crazy how far we have come. Pro cameras are still better with physical buttons, start up speed, zoom, changeable lenses, durability(cant drop your iphone lol), etc, etc, but phones have come so far its pretty awesome.
Love my iPhone 15 pro max. Takes great pics. You can change the aperture in portrait mode. Works great. I’ve even blown up pics to 16x20 on metal & they are spot on. That said though I just bought a canon R6 mark2. Love it & still learning slowly
Thanks for sharing!
It’s not just software, it is also hardware. But not the camera hardware, a lot of improvements come from the processor.
Where is your driving scene in front of the video taken?
All in Newfoundland!
Computational photography is really closing the gap on the big camera manufacturers. R5 is $3,500 for camera body alone and the images and video is about the same (in most circumstances).
Yeah but the difference in the kinds of photos shown in this video between an R100, R10 or R5 will be marginal at best. Professional and prosumer DSLRs and MILCs will really mainly improve upon lower and middle priced cameras in focus performance, burst speeds, burst buffers, low light performance, dual card slots, build quality, weather sealing, viewfinder quality, video performance, etc.. They really shine in tough shooting conditions - tracking something fast, shooting in poor light, being out in the weather. Like, an R100 or an iPhone will struggle shooting a bird taking off at dusk, an R5 will track it without problem, and will likely give you a burst of mostly in focus shots that have enough dynamic range to resolve everything you'd want. Professionals mainly need these cameras because they are reliable, if you know how to use them 99% of the shots you take will be good. Just shooting landscape in decent light you'll get 95% of the way to the R5s quality with a 10 year old DSLR. The value proposition of any professional camera or lens is miserable compared to entry level gear, but people earn a living with them so it's not that big of a deal.
These are pretty controlled situations. If you try to shoot something at the limits like indoor sports, or for example my kids trick or treating at night, a high level body with the fastest lens possible is going to blow away the iphone.
@@ChaplainDMK Which means a phone will meet 80% of people needs and cameras will be further pushed into smaller and smaller niches. Which means a lot of things if you are talking about the camera industry. Some players will exit, less choice, higher prices, no innovation.
@@jasonblevins9327 Controlled, but they are common situations. No one is going to buy an R5 so they can shoot their kids trick or treat for $6,000 body and lens. That is the point I was making.
Camera manufactures have failed to delivery innovation that would keep them relevant in the 80% rule. I say this has a person that likes cameras and prefers a camera over a phone.
Completely off topic, but do you use the splash guard filter on your lens when you're shooting close to the water?
Yes but I always have something in front of my lens.
Beautiful video. However I do not agree that there are no differences between the camera. The showed examples were all in pretty bright conditions. The 15 Pro excells in lower light situations and in portrait mode visibly from the 14 Pro.
I haven't had this experience in the nightscape images I've taken but haven't really tested it enough yet
@@AlexArmitageand also the hardware for the camera system itself is better if you look at the full details itself
@@JackmanJackman-kk6tvlol nope same camera hardware
Hey! I wanted to start by saying that I really like your photographic sensibility and it's clear that you really enjoy what you do. As for the depth of field on the iPhone - just take a photo in Portrait mode, click Edit and there is an option to adjust the aperture, so you can blur or sharpen the background ;) Cheers!
Thanks so much Peter!
Can you do the same comparison with Samsung. There you can control the manual setting also in raw format.
I think an nd filter is essential for good video on the iphone. The motion is smoother with 25/50 fps
Any apps you can recommend to control iso and shutter speed?
Not in raw sadly :(
I love seeing the accessibility of such powerful technology become more and more widespread...
I have recently been reflecting on the advancement of communications technologies over the past decade as most everyone now has a camera in their pocket.
And for those of us who are keen and excited about exploring photography and videography, watching these technologies become so powerful and able to fit in our pockets is mind-blowing!
I would be blown away if it ever worked out that we could get clear 400mm shots from a phone, or a phone with global shutter! It truly is incredible to think of the stories and content that may be shared 30... 60... 100 years from now 😍
The 15 pro has a little bit more detail…same sensor but different internal processor…so yes it does have an overall stronger processor to get out a little bit more detail on the same sensor….so they are different just not that much
Love your content! I think the camera upgrade from 14 Pro to 15 Pro is reasonable amount. It’s a phone, not a camera, although it can do a lot of things that camera does… so still don’t forget there are other things for a phone to upgrade. Also, we don’t change our phone every year, just like photographers don’t change cameras every year😅
So nice song😮!please tell us the name of the song!!👍👍

Really interesting video, but I kept being distracted by all the juicy landscape images. Your work is absolutely breathtaking....
Thank you for filling us in so acurately with all the 'real' advantages of the new iPhone compared to the 14Pro Max and your R5. That was fun to watch and made me think again before moving on to the next purchase. .
Thank you!
Alex, Just came across your channel on RUclips. Have a 13 mini and am considering an iPhone 15 Pro. Love how you selected these comparisons, with the variety of conditions, light, using a polarizer, etc. Well done! We though out here in RUclips viewer land, even watching on a 27" iMac, don't see all the details you do, before it goes through the RUclips compression business. I'd welcome expounding more in future videos on what you are able to see/distinguish from one model versus the other, as we may not be able to see much or any of those via RUclips. Thanks again, I've subscribed.
Be on the lookout for the print comparison coming soon!
Alex, Supposedly when we switch the main camera of the pro and switch it to 28 or 35mm field of view, the camera up-resolves the photo file to the same file size as the original 24mm view. By any chance did you compare how the photos look at those different settings to see if image quality changes? Thanks, Craig
Thank you Alex for this comparison. I am about to buy an Iphone 15 Max pro, I am just wandering if the camera can catch the northern lights? Your reply is highly appreciated.
Thank you for taking the time to do this!
That boat image of the people was also the one I struggled with the most, phone did a great job!
Got the other ones right BUT its certainly close!
Great points and very honest that there is basically no difference between the 14 and 15
The giveaway on the boat was the detail in the fibres of the guy's plaid shirt. The R5 produced much more detail.
I was going to say the redness of the guys face was the obvious giveaway @@QuicknStraight
