iPhone 8 vs iPhone 8 Plus: Camera Differences You Need To Know By sakitech

Hey there's sake here from sake ticket in today's video. I want to talk about the iPhone eight pluses and iPhone eight cameras. It seems a lot of people seem to think that both of the cameras on either smartphone is the one and the same. However, that's not true, so, let's dive in and clarify the exact differences and also the exact similarities between the two cameras, so you can make an intelligent buying decision or simply educate yourself now before we dive in. If you do use, Instagram or Twitter, make sure to follow me on both at Sakai tech online. Now, first and foremost, I need you to understand that the smaller iPhone 8 only has one primary camera, while the larger iPhone 8 plus has a dual camera system, a primary camera, as well as a secondary, telephoto camera.

The primary cameras on both smartphones are identical and generate equally high quality photos. They are both 12 megapixel cameras with an aperture of f-18 with optical image. Stabilization. Most people will be using this primary camera to take photos on a daily basis and the picture quality will be identical both on the iPhone 8 and the iPhone 8 plus you, but then the iPhone eight plus has a secondary telephoto lens. That is also 12 megapixels, with an aperture of f28 and without optical image stabilization.

So what does this secondary camera get you? It has two primary functions. First, one is that it allows you to zoom in on objects, two times optically, which is certainly a good feature, because when you zoom in optically, you do not lose image quality. On top of this, you can combine the optical zoom with the digital zoom and get up to 10 times hybrid zoom, while on the iPhone 8, you can only zoom in five times. Digitally number two is the fact that the secondary camera allows for some really cool portrait effects, specifically the fact that it can duplicate the both effect, which allows for a primary subject to be in sharp and clear focus, while the background blurs out into a creamy haze. As you can see in this picture, it's a very important effect in real photography, as you can see in this photo I'm using a mug as the primary subject, but you can replace that with anything, including a person, a pet or another object altogether.

The idea is to have a sharp and clear focus on the primary subject: the mug in this case, while the background blurs out this does produce some really great portrait shots of actual people. So those are the two things that become possible with the added secondary telephoto camera on the iPhone 8, plus things that will not be possible with the iPhone 8, the optical zoom, and the portrait mode now, iPhone 8 plus also has some additional portrait lighting effects that attempt to reproduce real time studio lighting effects. This is just an extension of the portrait mode. These effects can be accessed via the camera app under the portrait mode. The first option is the standard natural light mode, and then you can access the studio, light, contour, light stage light and the stage light mono.

These effects are really designed for taking shots of people to create some unique portrait, shots that replicate effects otherwise only possible in a real studio, setting. Ok, so again, the primary cameras on both of these smartphones, which I suspect most people will be using, are one and the same. They will produce identically stunning shots and offer the same video recording capabilities, including 4k, at 60 frames per second. But if you think you need the optical zoom the two times optical zoom, if you want to play with the both mode, if you like to take a lot of shots of your family friends, pets, etc. , and you want those cool studio effects, including the portrait effect, then you should consider getting the iPhone 8 plus instead of the iPhone 8.

As far as the camera is concerned, and that's basically all you need to know in relation to the camera differences between the eight and the eight plus alright.
