iPhone 12 Camera Features & Upgrades: LiDAR, Dolby Vision, And More Explained


Apple has launched its new iPhone 12, iPhone 12 mini, iPhone 12 Pro, and iPhone 12 Pro Max with a more improved and enhanced set of features. Due to the increasing attention on photography in the last few years, Apple has mainly focused on the iPhone 12 lineup camera and its powerful A14 Bionic processor chip. The new iPhone 12 comes with an improved camera technology along with the latest 5G connectivity. It also comes with the fastest mobile phone processor ever by Apple.

If we talk about the camera features of the four newest smartphones from Apple, the iPhone 12 has an identical camera to the iPhone 12 mini. On the other hand, the iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max share similar features in the camera area and are equipped with a more advanced set of features. Each phone has more capabilities as they can capture better pictures and also have the ability to record better videos. The iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini have two rear cameras and a TrueDepth front camera. All three cameras are enabled with Deep Fusion and capable of supporting Portrait Mode and Night Mode.





The ultra-wide camera has the same previous generation’s lens as well as the sensor but with faster processing due to Apple’s powerful A14 processor, which enables the camera to show brighter images, even in the dim-lighting situation. The wide-angle camera plays a vital role in delivering more impressive edge-to-edge sharpness and has a larger f/1.6 aperture to receive 27% more light by the sensor. If we talk about iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max, they are considered the first smartphone from Apple to record 4K resolution Dolby Vision HDR videos at a frame rate of 60FPS. Apple also confirmed that the film industry also uses the same Dolby Vision for color grading. The Smart HDR3 from Apple can recognize scenes and intelligently optimize them.

The iPhone 12 Pro and Pro Max come with another excellent feature of LiDAR, which can be expanded as Light Detection And Ranging. In this feature, the scanner will measure the time taken by the fired laser light to return to the sensor to detect the distance. With the help of the fantastic speed of the A14 chip, the iPhone 12 Pro and Pro Max are capable of reconstructing a 3-D map, which can be used for more accurate photography. It also allows you to take the Portrait Mode photos with the combination of Night Mode. LiDAR also plays an important role in providing the best Augmented Reality experience.

More features from Apple are expected to hit very soon, such as Apple ProRAW. It will be a new storage format from Apple, including the information of RAW photos and some new softwares for editing photos and videos.

After discussing and exploring all the advanced and newest features of the iPhone 12 lineup, we have concluded that the new iPhone 12 has top-class features, especially in the field of cameras. Apple has introduced one of its best iPhone lineups in terms of camera-quality with the new iPhone models.
