Is Apple's 5s mobile phone the same as Apple's 6 mobile phone camera?

It is difficult to find the difference between iPhone 6 Plus/5s only from the pixel hard parameters. Although the same pixels are maintained, the iPhone 6 Plus has added many new things. IPhone 6 Plus adopts a brand-new iSight sensor this time, with a single pixel area of 1.5μm, supporting the maximum f/2.2 aperture, and adding Focus Pixels technology (pixel-level focusing), that is, phase detection autofocus. Compared with the traditional contrast focusing method, the focusing speed is faster, which is twice that of iPhone 5s.

In addition, the iPhone 6 Plus also supports dual color temperature flash, but it has changed from the original two flash with different color temperatures to one. In other respects, iPhone 6 supports digital anti-shake just like 5s (quickly taking multiple photos to synthesize one for anti-shake). For the first time, iPhone 6 Plus has added optical anti-shake technology, which can effectively compensate the image anti-shake when taking pictures in dark environment and improve the success rate of taking pictures.

As for the front camera, the iPhone 6 Plus is still equipped with a front-facing camera of 65438+200,000 pixels like the 5s, but it adopts a brand-new sensor, supports a large aperture of F/2.2, and increases the light input by 8 1%. And iPhone 6 Plus supports continuous automatic zoom of video shooting and video shooting at 120 frames per second or 240 frames per second.

Photographic performance

Although the two cameras use the same pixel sensor, what is the difference between the actual photos? Next, let's take a look at the photo sample comparison of iPhone 6 Plus/5s:

iPhone 5s、iPhone 6 Plus

In terms of picture resolution, since both iPhone 6 Plus/5S adopt 8 megapixel cameras, there is no obvious difference in resolution, with similar performance but different imaging styles. The imaging of iPhone 5S is cold, and the imaging of iPhone 6 Plus is a little warm. In terms of perception, the iPhone 5S is better and more suitable for shooting scenery.

In terms of screen color, the performance of iPhone 6 Plus/5s is very similar. Both proofs are rich and full in color, which is very eye-catching, and the photos give people a bright feeling.

In the scene of Gao Fancha, we can find that the purple edge performance of iPhone 6 Plus is much better than that of iPhone 5s. IPhone 5S has a certain degree of purple edge phenomenon, while iPhone 6 Plus can hardly see purple edge in the picture, which shows that the camera of iPhone 6 Plus has improved a lot in optical quality.

iPhone 6 Plus

In the dark environment, the performance of iPhone 6 Plus can be said to be much better than that of iPhone 5s. The dark proofs of iPhone 5s have obvious noise, and the smear phenomenon is more serious, and the image quality is also significantly reduced. In contrast, the iPhone 6 Plus equipped with new sensors and optical image stabilization performs much better, and the noise control is also ideal. Thanks to the fact that there is no obvious blur in the optical anti-shake picture, the picture quality in dark light has been greatly improved.

In terms of white balance, it can be seen that the iPhone 6 Plus has also improved. IPhone 5s is a bit yellow, the white balance of iPhone 6 Plus is better controlled and the transition is more natural.

In terms of tolerance, the iPhone 6 Plus has also improved significantly compared with the iPhone 5s S. In this set of proofs, the dark details of iPhone 6 Plus are obviously better than that of iPhone 5S.

In terms of depth of field, because it also supports the aperture of F/2.2, the performance of iPhone 6 Plus/5s is similar, and there is no obvious difference. It is also suitable for taking photos with vague atmosphere.

abstract

After reading the photo comparison above, I believe that everyone has a good understanding of the camera ability of iPhone 6 Plus. IPhone 6 Plus's brand-new sensors and new technologies make it more capable of taking pictures, surpassing the previous generation iPhone 5s in many aspects. It can be seen that Apple's camera optimization skills are in place. Even if it is not the top hardware, its camera effect is still the benchmark in the current mobile phone industry. Finally, we also expect Apple to continue to optimize and improve this generation of iPhone 6/6 Plus in the future, bringing users a better photo experience.
