Apple thinks buying an iPhone 16 Pro will turn you into a Hollywood movie maker

08 October 2024
Its latest ad tries to make this point.

Sort by:

Provided one can adapt cinema lenses, has the perfect lighting, a complete audio recording equiment and appropriate set pieces, there is literally nothing that would stop a contemporary iPhone from shooting profressional-looking feature films.
It's amazing how much current cameraphones have developed and advanced technologically.
Actually, nobody needs tens of thousands of Dollars to buy or rent a professional film camera anymore.

    Anonymous, 08 Oct 2024Does it have swipe left for camera on lock screen. If it do... morenobody is forcing you to buy one. besides you can change lock screen shortcuts in ios18, and if you want a separate row for numbers, just download another keyboard

      xperia has been doing this for ages. lol

              Anonymous, 08 Oct 2024Funny thing with iPhones is that the videos look cinematic ... moreBecause the disclaimer at the end, saying third party software was used to create the video is the only real thing on the commercial. The obvious fact is fairly well visible if you pay attention, looking at the extreme dynamics in the video. It was shot in a studio with so much light they had to wear sunglasses. It was likely mounted on a studio dolly, the phone running custom firmware forcing a desired framerate and disabling everything else on the phone. Very likely with "infinite" depth of field, to get as much data to work with. Then they ran the raw data through professional post-processing hardware to give it the full cinematic look. Including extrem cropping and digital upscaling and fake bokeh. It's more of a promo for the people creating the ad than the phone itself.

                whatuthink, 08 Oct 2024lets rephrase that title to "Apple users thinks buying... moreOr "Apple author thinks buying an iPhone 16 Pro will turn them into a Hollywood movie maker"

                  You can make most videos from smartphone cameras / digital cameras to look cinematic / film-like if you just really want to do so.

                  Oh also, if anyone thinks that you can be a Hollywood movie maker with a phone, then LOL, you have been fooled by Apple in their brainwashing tactics to cheat you into buying an iPhone 16 Pro / Pro Max.

                        Whatevs, 08 Oct 2024The hate is really showing, GSMArena. LOL Funny thing with iPhones is that the videos look cinematic but I saw some Youtuber run with a top end model and there's still a few jumping parts.

                        Why is that?

                          😂

Idk why they are stubborn to allow to put a numeral line on top of keyboard. Maybe wait for another decade and then make the change. Like they did with calculator app on ipad. At this point there is no innovation at apple. Atleast make things convenient for end user.

                                  Does it have swipe left for camera on lock screen. If it does, I don't want an iPhone. The only way to disable is to disable the camera. So annoying...
                                  By the way, did they add separate number row on the keyboard or not? If they haven't; I don't want it...

                                    Anonymous, 08 Oct 2024Or maybe Apple marketing is just getting ridiculous.It is ondeed getting ridiculous to the point of being a bit pretentious. Even in some Apple forums, the users and fans out there have been expressing their exasperations since this model launch.

Apple also marketed that the 28 Years Later was filmed entirely using a 15 Pro Max using some "add-ons" when in reality the add-on camera lens alone cost at least US$25k.
