iPhone 15 Pro Anamorphic Experiment – “What Makes a Cinema Camera” by Michael Cioni/Strada
For Michael Cioni, a cinema camera has to fulfill five requisites:
- Cinematic resolution
- Intraframe encoding
- High dynamic range
- Wide color gamut (10-bit or more)
- Removable lenses
For now, the iPhone 15 Pro meets four out of these five requirements, all except the last one.
