Apple 4S is a Point-and-Shoot Contender

The Apple iPhone 4S is very much like the iPhone 4 in appearance, with all the changes taking place inside from the new Apple A5 dual-core processor.

So what does the iPhone 4S camera and video give you?

The camera on the 4S is now at a respectable 8MP, up from the iPhone 4 camera of 5MP. The pictures from the 4S are now more colorful and clearer. There is now a sensor to determine what the illumination is like and the aperture is larger at f/2.4 giving you more depth of field and the 4S is much better at those close shots than the iPhone 4. Many using the camera are delighted with the picture detail against rivals. There is ‘face detection’ for those portrait shots along a number of advanced color improvements with auto white balance and accuracy. Comparisons made around the web of the pictures against the iPhone 4 are very positive, with the image quality much improved. It is seen that this camera is competing now against many midrange cameras on sale, with a more rapid operation taking photos. The iPhone 4S is managing to take pictures with a more responsive half a second delay, definitely a point-and-shoot contender.

The video on the iPhone 4S is going to be a hit with the new high definition level, from the iPhone 4′s HD 720p to a watchable HD 1080p. It still maintains a frame speed of 30 per second, like its predecessor but the increase in resolution means for normal shooting a larger video can be displayed. One point that is clear is that if you do a lot of video shooting
you will need the space, especially with the higher resolution. This might be a factor of whether you will choose the 16Gb, 32Gb or 64Gb version of this smartphone. A lot of web and YouTube videos will be made using this, filmed, corrected and uploaded, as the iPhone allows you to edit the video in the phone itself. Everything you need for on the road video production.
