The NEW iPhone 15 Pro Max

By now, you must know there is a new iPhone.  It’s the iPhone 15, and I ordered as part of my yearly trade-in plan an iPhone 15 Pro Max phone.  It will be delivered in early October; frankly, I can’t wait.  I have over 115,000 images and 650 videos on my iPhone.  These days it’s the camera I have with me all the time.  And contrary to what many believe, the iPhone camera is quite the camera.

I would dare say with this new upgrade to the iPhone 15 that, I bought a camera that has a phone.   In the video below, I highlight a few of the changes.  I think what I am excited about is the 48MP camera and the always-on portrait system.  You can now shoot with the main camera a 48mp ProRAW file as well as HEIC.  The video specs are pretty impressive, too.

Check out the video; when I receive my iPhone 15, I’ll have much more to share about it.  I plan to do real-time photography and make prints from the files.  It’s going to be fun.

Photography is my passion and has been for 45 plus years. My career in photography has allowed me to travel the world, meet some of the most interesting people on the planet and see things I could never have dreamed of. My goal is to share the passion of pictures taking through photographs and teaching with as many people as I can hoping it brings them as much joy and happiness as it has me. I do this through Rockhopper Workshops and other projects as well as teaching at my Gallery in Indianapolis.
