iPhone 16 Series Camera Specifications Leak
In a video posted online by AppleInsider, the camera units and action button of the iPhone 16 series were leaked. As per the hands-on video of the dummy units, both iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus will feature a dual rear camera setup comprising a 48-megapixel primary wide camera with f/1.6 aperture and up to 2x zoom and a secondary ultra-wide camera with f/2.2 aperture and .5x zoom out. The f/2.2 aperture will be an upgrade from the f/2.4 available on the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus.

Further, the standard iPhone 16 series is said to feature a vertically stacked camera unit instead of a diagonal setup. The non-Pro iPhone models are likely to support macro photography for the first time.

The iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max are said to carry a triple rear camera setup including a wide camera, an ultra-wide camera, and a telephoto camera. The telephoto feature was earlier exclusive to the iPhone 15 Pro Max. They could retain the 48-megapixel primary sensor with an f/1.78 aperture and 2x optical zoom from the current lineup. They are said to feature 12-megapixel telephoto sensors with 5x optical zoom and f/2.8 aperture. Further, the ultra-wide camera could be upgraded to 48-megapixel with a pixel-binning feature that would use .7 micrometre pixels while shooting at full resolution or 1.4 micrometre when used as a quad pixel. The iPhone 16 Pro models are anticipated to support capturing ProRaw photos.
