The company Apple has seriously set itself the goal of creating a smartphone with a camera that is not inferior, and in the future even superior in quality, to professional devices. Camera iPhone X allows even a person who does not have artistic skills to get high-quality photos at the right time. According to statistics, the camera is a popular feature in a smartphone. It is used every day, so manufacturers pay attention to such technologies.
Specifications
The iPhone 10 did not become another model, the release of the gadget marked the beginning of a new era in the development of digital technology in the company Apple. The 2017 model comes with two updated modules with a traditional lens and a wide-angle lens. Learn more about the characteristics of the iPhone X:
- How many megapixels in an iPhone 10 – 12 megapixels.
- Aperture f / 1.8, creates ideal conditions for night photography.
- Optical stabilization of the TV camera. Now the picture is clear and not blurry.

TrueDepth
The TrueDepth function consists of several components, each of which is responsible for the action when taking photos and videos on the front of the smartphone. The purpose of each of the elements:
- 7 megapixel camera.
- Light sensor.
- Proximity sensor.
- Point projector. Responsible for creating a projection of the owner's face. The device reads 30,000 points and creates an ultra-accurate map of the 'owner' appearance, which will later be used for identification.
- Infrared camera. Security component. The sensor reads the structure of a person's face in the infrared spectrum and sends this data to the SecureEnclave. If the information matches the previously created model, the smartphone will be unlocked. Face ID has replaced fingerprint protection, and according to smartphone owners, Apple is far superior to legacy security.
Fragments of the new A11 Bionic processor convert the face shot into mathematical values, so the camera recognizes the owner even in difficult conditions. The infrared emitter emits a beam of invisible light and sees the face even in darkness or twilight.
TrueDepth is responsible for unlocking, in addition, using the option, the owner pays for purchases in online stores, and also takes selfies in difficult conditions: at night, at dusk, in bright light. The front camera detects facial data in three dimensions, so applications with masking during shooting have become more technological and more accurate. The mask “sits” on the face, repeats facial expressions and emotions.
Portrait lighting
Until recently, only professional photographers knew about the bokeh effect. With the release of the iPhone 8, 8+ and X, users are introduced to this portrait function. The dual camera takes photographs where light and focus are concentrated on the foreground subject, while the background is blurred. Moreover, in iPhone X the option was given to a regular and a front camera.

According to the developer, 'Portrait Lighting' is not only about special filters. The program analyzes the object and external factors, selects the appropriate mode for a particular case. AI controls lighting, adds softness, shadows or changes the background.
Portrait Mode
You can activate Portrait mode in the Camera app, then adjust the composition and choose the appropriate effect, then click on the camera button at the bottom of the screen. The program uses machine learning, the chip in the A11 Bionic processor remembers and processes the user's decisions, predicts his popular actions and helps when working with photos and snapshots. Portrait mode includes 4 styles:
- 'Daylight'.
- 'Studio Light'.
- 'Contour Light'.
- 'Stage light'.
Studio light deserves special attention. The photo is obtained in black and white, the contours of the face are emphasized, the subject comes to the fore by darkening the background. If the picture was taken in Portrait mode, the Portrait Lighting effect can be canceled. Go to the 'Photos' section, select the desired image and click the slider icon. A scoreboard with a setting will come out at the bottom, turn the wheel and select the appropriate effect.
Portrait mode features are available for the front camera. Selfies are now captured with all Portrait Lighting styles.
A year has passed since the release of the iPhone 10 smartphone, and it is already safe to say that the option was tested in a positive way. In the process of using beta versions of the OS, lags were detected, which were fixed by the developers at the time of operation and eliminated in the final program.
Double stabilization
Starting with the iPhone 10, the company has equipped both cameras with optical image stabilization. The picture and video are smoother during shooting. Additionally, the 'Pendulum' and 'Long Exposure' options are used. The latter feature helps you shoot clear video in the dark.
