Review: We Filmed This Entire Video Using the iPhone 7 | WIRED

The iPhone 7 Plus is touted as *the* mobile low-light camera. It’s got dual lenses, an f/1.8 aperture, image stabilization, and an even brighter flash. But how much better is it? We tested it out by filming this entire video with iPhone 7.

Review: We Filmed This Entire Video Using the iPhone 7 | WIRED

As a photographer, there is much wrong with this review. You can't have low light on even a dslr without noise. Also, if you didn't see any difference between RAW and jpeg, then they clearly didn't try editing the pictures which is what RAW is for. I'm not standing up for the phone per se, but if you going to do a review based of photography, at least know what you doing.

Only thing this video Taught me was that lighting is fundamental in photography..

[huntrrams]

Nothing will beat the Nokia 1020 back in 2014 and that was amazing for a 42 mp lens on a small phone, but like all phone cameras nothing will be perfect and there will be things that will have some pros and some cons.

1:40 I know that spot... it's damn near impossible to shoot anything there unless you're rocking a prime lens wide open

[FannyFound]

But yet, when I record with a Galaxy S7, Note 5, or LGV20 I look like a GTA character off of San Andreas. :, ( #iPhone

I did a cinematic video with the iphone 7 as well and it turned out absolutely perfect!

[kendallarroz]

No phone will ever be as good or better than a DSLR or point and shoot. Just to little room to fit the hardware to create a decent picture in every situation. You've got to compromise.

[mrila-xe]

is this the 7 or the 7 plus? the description says plus

[KushtyGD]

For all the people saying the camera is bad..just get some knowledge about the camera and your pictures will actually look a lot better. Settings, Focus & light are the most important things imo.

[dongrose]

There was a GoPro ad before this video. Suck it.

[Theraulespinosa]

Seriously I highly disagree. The cameras take really amazing photos, it is actually the best feature on the 7 plus. It is also a very noticeably difference from my 6 plus. Highly recommend it to anyone who wants a honest opinion

[Toastednuts]

The intro for this video should've been " hey I'm a white hipster and I live in San Francisco now"

[kellcoleStyleEnt]

What program you editing this video with I will like to no ???

[najmi]

in low light, the 2x zoom only use digital zoom, it did not use the 2nd camera.some youtuber did a video about this but i cant remember who, so thats why the image is noisy

[nikigeorgiev]

So much hate about the IPhone makes me sick....spread Love and positivity bitches its just a fucking phone!😂

[lucashermann]

2:14 no shit, no phone will ever be as good as a REAL camera that's only made for taking pictures

[somebodyelse]

for an iphone, this is excellent. they have made it more powerful with the same user friendly anorexically light software that allows for great real world usage...but for a 2016 phone in general. only thing apple did that was new was removing the home button and making it a home force touch circle. the hardware is weak by comparison, they force you to spend more money on bluetooth headphones rather than just give you some cheap ones in the box, and they still lack things like nfc and fast charging, AND NO using an ipad pro ac adapter does not count as fast charging...

[Brandon-qrzz]

You should've tried the pro apps to show those results also.

[MrTaylorfenoglio]

Don't blame the phone for your lack of photography skills. If my iPhone 6 takes better photos than what u showed then the problem is u not the phone

[johnnytampocao]

It is the best video a cellphone can do. Great!
