iPhone camera reviews: "In Tyler We Trust"

[inthetrees]

Love that you dedicated a significant portion of your review to covering JPEG XL.

[JohnAliakiozoglou]

Always wait for this man's review of the iPhone every year to decide if I buy it. Most decent reviews.

[seecraig]

It's gotten to the point where as long as shallow depth of field isn't needed and you're not in a seriously problematic low light situation, iPhones are fine professionally.
Remember there was a time when it was "professional video shooters don't use DSLRs" or, "professional photographers don't use mirrorless cameras." The nay-sayers say nay while competitors pick up more clients who appreciate speed, efficiency, and portability.

Finally the only review that matters. Instead of all that endless YouTuber “commercials” we get.

[kenadams]

Perhaps labelling this as an iPhone 16 Pro review would be better.

[saca.technology]

Man you're simply the best at this! What a great review. Love it!

[DVinstapics]

I am yet to find one review where "studio" audio sounds better than standard. For me it's plain awful

[ak_hoops]

You are actually the first person to show a more practical use of Studio mix mode vs. cinematic being good for on the street. Also the mentioning the quality of the 120fps footage! That’s a huge reason why I rarely use it on my phone, yea it’s slowed down but it looks pretty bad! So great upgrade

[ZeroYouOut]

You, sir, showed me the potential of the ip16pro camera better than most of those that compare it to the pixel and galaxy phones. Your channel deserves to step into the million subs club! Thanks for the quality content!

[DaddyMaverik]

Was literally in the process of commenting to ask for an in depth guide for how you use and configure an iPhone for professional use and then you said you’re working on one at the end of the video haha. Looking forward to that video

[priultimus]

1:16 the exact way everyone else should’ve handled this too! its not out, nothing to talk about, cover it later

[joshuagraves]

It’s here! I kept searching “pro photographer iPhone 16” on YouTube since you hadn’t released a video yet, and this just popped up 🙌

[Muhammed.Yaseen]

Why did I enjoy this review more than MKBHD's video? So good, Tyler. Keep going.

[Sankew]

I used to shoot with an iPhone and I switched to a Sony Alpha for my Videos just because of the overall quality+lens options

but the first video camera I always recommend everyone is the iPhone, there’s a lot you can always do with the iPhone Footage+the flexibility of it being with you everywhere and it being tiny

I still occasionally shoot with my phone

[TristanPope]

Thank god someone said everything about the button placement I have wanted to but haven't done yet. ONE Focus Group woulda solved this and if there is a mechanical reason it cannot be further down then don't put the button on the phone imo. Great phone overall, the button is a shame. ISO, EXPOSURE, and WHITE BALANCE as the three ONLY functions it pulls up, woulda been perfect!

[olddogruffs]

Thank you, thank you, thank you! Such a good review really focusing on what matters as a professional

[JPSanders]

My favorite camera review each year! Great stuff.

[craigcarlson]

Super helpful review focusing on what those of us considering it for photographic purposes care about. Well done!

[WillzyxTheZypod]

I really enjoyed the detailed yet engaging presentation. Well done, as always!
