For the photography geeks

People are commenting on the camera in the iPhone 14 pro.
iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max offer this range with a single camera system comprised of three lenses:
13mm at 0.5x with ultra wide lens;
24mm at 1x with main lens;
48mm at 2x with main lens;
77mm at 3x with telephoto lens.I'm not enough of an enthusiast to appreciate all the stuff outlined here, but all 4 of these photos were taken without moving an inch.

Nice. My 12 Pro has 3 lenses (0.5, 1, and 2) and I do use the 0.5 and 2 sometimes. It's nice to have just in case... the pinch/zoom (even if digital) is also pretty good too.
I use the Portrait Mode a lot when taking pictures of the kids. It's really great to focus on them and have the background blurred (bokeh).

Yeah, pretty cool.
We really should start considering that there are three branches of photography these days:
- film photography
- digital photography
- computational photography (phones)
They've each got their strengths and weaknesses, and none can really cancel out the others.
