The iPhone 16 is just around the corner. After a last-minute leak revealed everything Apple is expected to announce at the Monday keynote, 9to5Mac‘s Filipe Espósito reveals the company’s plans for the iPhone 16 Pro camera.
People familiar with the matter told the journalist that several changes are coming to the iPhone 16 Pro camera. Some of them have already been rumored, and others are brand-new information that Apple was likely saving for the keynote.
- 4K 120 fps recording: According to this iPhone 16 Pro camera leak, the iPhone will be able to shoot 4K at 120 fps. The iPhone 15 Pro can shoot 4K at 60 fps;
- 4K 120 fps recording with ProRes 4K: When connected to external storage, users will also be able to shoot ProRes 4K at 120fps;
- QuickTake upgrade: Apple might upgrade QuickTake from 1080p to 4K. This feature allows users to shoot video without switching out of the default photo mode;
- New Photographic Styles: First available with the iPhone 13 Pro, Apple might give it another chance with new Photographic Styles with “better machine learning to preserve skin tones;”
- Camera Button: Internally, Apple calls the long-rumored Capture Button the Camera Button. Users will be able to press it to open and shoot inside the Camera app, which could let them remove the Camera toggle from the Lock Screen for another option;
- Spatial Photos support: As visionOS 2 will bring Spatial Photos support to Apple Vision Pro, it seems iPhone 16 Pro users will be able to take those photos, in addition to the current Spatial Video option;
- JPEG-XL support: 9to5Mac reveals that Apple might support the JPEG-XL format for “capturing lossy and lossless photos;”
- Pause and resuming record in the Camera app: According to the iPhone 16 Pro camera leak, users will be able to pause and resume a record inside the Camera app, a first for iPhone users;
- Wind removal: Apple is working on new features to remove wind noise from videos.
Lastly, Espósito discovered that Apple tested 8K recording with the iPhone 16 Pro. However, it’s unclear if Apple will add this feature, as zooming in would drop the quality to 4K. The journalist hints that this function could be saved for next year’s iPhone 17, when all three main cameras will have a 48MP resolution
