Is the dual lens camera on the iPhone 7 Plus good, or outstanding? Brooks Kraft International Photographer of the year claims that the iPhone 7 Plus camera with its 28mm wide angle lens, F1.8 aperture, and additional 56mm lens make this a great choice for smartphone photographers.

Having received his new iPhone & Plus from Apple before the official release in Septemeber, Kraft was able to really run the new dual lens camera through its paces.

Whilst the conclusion is that optical zoom gives far better resluts than didgital zoom, Brooks Kraft belives that Apple have acheived a major step forward in both iPhone and Smartphone photography

The new dual-lens camera of the new iPhone 7 Plus is possibly the most significant upgrade to an iPhone camera ever.

The iPhone 7 camera’s 28mm wide-angle lens now has an aperture of f1.8, which allows 50% more light to reach the sensor. And the additional 56mm lens, Apple says, will have a number of implications for photo quality.

The improved aperture and the new lens, taken together, make the iPhone 7 Plus camera a far more capable tool for both amateur and pro photographers. But they also make it a more complex one. So we went to photographer Brooks Kraft for help testing the performance of the camera’s new features. Kraft covered the White House for Time from 2001-2011 (spanning both the Bush and Obama administrations) and was named International Photographer of the Year in 2013.
