Main Cameras
Wide Camera The 48 MP main camera on the Apple iPhone 15 Pro Max features an f/1.8 aperture and a 24mm wide lens, offering high-resolution images with excellent detail. The 1/1.28" sensor and 1.22µm pixels allow for improved light sensitivity, resulting in better performance in low-light conditions. Additionally, the camera includes dual-pixel PDAF for fast and accurate focusing, while sensor-shift OIS helps reduce camera shake for clearer, more stable shots and videos. The 50 MP main camera on the vivo iQOO Z10 captures detailed photos thanks to its high resolution and a wide f/1.8 aperture, which allows more light in for better low-light performance. Its 1/1.95" sensor size and 0.8µm pixel size help balance detail and noise, especially in well-lit conditions. With PDAF (Phase Detection Autofocus) and OIS (Optical Image Stabilization), the camera locks focus quickly and reduces blur from hand shakes, making it great for both stills and video.
Telephoto Camera
Ultrawide Camera The 12 MP ultrawide camera on the Apple iPhone 15 Pro Max features an f/2.2 aperture and a 13mm focal length, offering a 120° field of view to capture expansive landscapes and group shots. The 1/2.55" sensor and 1.4µm pixel size allow for better light capture, ensuring clearer and more detailed images in various lighting conditions. With dual-pixel PDAF (Phase Detection Autofocus), the camera delivers fast and accurate focus, even in wide-angle shots.
Periscope Telephoto Camera The 12 MP periscope telephoto camera on the Apple iPhone 15 Pro Max features an f/2.8 aperture and a 120mm focal length, enabling 5x optical zoom for sharp, detailed long-range shots. With a 1/3.06" sensor and 1.12µm pixels, it captures clear images even at zoomed-in distances, while the dual-pixel PDAF ensures quick and accurate autofocus. The inclusion of 3D sensor-shift OIS helps stabilize the camera, reducing blur and ensuring steady photos and videos, even when zoomed in.
Macro Camera
Depth Camera ​The TOF 3D LiDAR scanner on the Apple iPhone 15 Pro Max is a depth-sensing technology that enhances photography, particularly in low-light conditions, by measuring the distance between the device and objects to create accurate depth maps. This improvement facilitates faster autofocus, better Night mode performance, and enhanced augmented reality (AR) experiences. Notably, Apple has transitioned to sourcing LiDAR components exclusively from Sony for the iPhone 15 Pro models, aiming to reduce power consumption and potentially improve performance The 2 MP depth sensor on the vivo iQOO Z10 is used to capture depth information, helping create more natural-looking portrait shots with background blur (bokeh effect). With an f/2.4 aperture, it doesn’t capture much light but is sufficient for its supporting role. It works alongside the main camera to improve subject-background separation rather than capturing standalone photos.
Night Vision Camera
Features The main camera on the Apple iPhone 15 Pro Max features a Dual-LED dual-tone flash, which provides more accurate and balanced lighting in low-light conditions, reducing harsh shadows and highlights. It also includes HDR (High Dynamic Range) for both photos and panorama shots, helping to balance the exposure between bright and dark areas for more detailed and natural-looking images. These features enhance overall photo quality, ensuring clear and vibrant shots in a variety of lighting scenarios. The main camera of the vivo iQOO Z10 includes features like LED flash for better lighting in dark scenes, HDR (High Dynamic Range) for balanced exposure in high-contrast environments, and panorama mode for capturing wide, sweeping landscape shots. These tools enhance versatility, allowing for better photo quality in a range of lighting and scenery conditions. While basic, they provide essential functionality for casual and everyday photography.
Video The Apple iPhone 15 Pro Max offers exceptional video recording capabilities, including 4K video at multiple frame rates (24, 25, 30, and 60fps) for stunning, high-quality footage.
