iPhone 16 Pro, iPhone 16 camera specs leaked ahead of launch: Here are the new features, upgrades to expect

Apple is set to release the new iPhone 16 series as the tech world is even boiling with buzz. It will be released worldwide on 10th September 2024. Apple wants everything to be kept under wraps, but it cannot deny online that many rumours and leaks have popped up in this regard.

What is leaked

Other highly debated rumours are that the new iPhone 16 series will see big improvements in the camera sector. According to reports from AppleInsider, Apple is about to introduce an ultra-wide camera refraction, further increasing resolution, and a new capture button to really improve mobile photography.

The iPhone 16 lineup is also expected to boast JPEG-XL support, a new format that would be included among the existing HEIF, JPEG, HEIF Max, ProRAW, and ProRAW Max options. This format could improve overall image quality and allow greater flexibility in editing.

Both the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus are expected to feature a dual-camera setup at the back. The primary one is set to be a 48MP wide camera lens capable of 1x/2x zooming. The f/2.4 ultra-wide lens will improve to f/2.2 to gather more light and thus guarantee better photography in low-light conditions.

The cameras in these models are also expected to be vertically set, a design that is likely to resemble the iPhone 11 closely. The layout of the past has proven to be a favorite and might be making its way back on the iPhone 16 series.

Camera improvements on the iPhone 16 Pro and 16 Pro Max

The iPhone 16 Pro and 16 Pro Max are said to include further improvements in their camera systems. Although the design as a whole might seem familiar from older models, the hardware changes are quite interesting.

The Pro models will retain the 48MP primary sensor, which can take up to 2x optical-quality 12MP telephoto shots, with an f/1.78 aperture. The 12MP telephoto lens remains unaltered in the f/2.8 aperture.

Improvements will mostly focus on bringing the ultra-wide up to 48MP. This means it will feature packing pixel-binning technology that allows the lens to dynamically change the size of its pixels depending on lighting conditions.

For example, in low light, it can switch into quad-pixel mode, which combines pixels for better image quality. This is expected to make quite a difference in how the iPhone 16 Pro models deal with tough lighting conditions.

This could also mean having a 48MP ProRAW lens for options in post-processing and editing photos, thus giving its users more control over their captures.

New Capture Button

The most buzzing rumor concerns the new “Capture” button on the iPhone 16 lineup. This rumored physical button will be located in the bottom right of all models to make clicking photographs more user-friendly. If you hold the phone in landscape shutter mode, the button naturally aligns with your finger for easy and prompt use of the camera system.

The Capture button could eliminate the need to access the camera from the lock screen, providing a faster and more convenient way to snap photos. It’s also hoped to give users more control over focus and zoom, making it easier to capture the perfect shot.
