Like he did last year for the iPhone XS, Sebastiaan de With, co-founder of the iOS camera app Halide, has again made use his app`s technical readout feature to obtain additional camera specifications above and beyond what can be found in the official spec sheet. He`s broken down the data and compared the new iPhone 11 Pro to last year`s XS model. Let`s have a closer look at his findings:
The 11 Pro main camera comes with a 6-element lens that offers a 26mm equivalent focal length and F1.8 aperture. The chart below details the changes between the XS and the new model. As you can see the maximum shutter speed has been increased from 1/22,000 sec to a whopping 1/125,000 sec while the maximum ISO has been expanded to ISO 3072 vs the previous ISO 2304 limit.
It`s not quite clear at this point what the blisteringly fast shutter speeds could be used for. The increased maximum ISO doesn`t necessarily mean that the new iPhone will produce lower levels of image noise at a given ISO setting but it should be able to achieve better exposures in very dark settings.

As before, the telephoto cameras features a 52mm equivalent focal length but now comes with a faster F2.0 aperture. In combination with the increased maximum ISO value (ISO 2016) this should improve low light tele photos and should also produce a more visible `natural` bokeh than on the iPhone XS.

The iPhone XS did not come with an ultra-wide camera, so we can`t compare but the new camera offers a 13mm equivalent field-of-view, an F2.4 aperture lens and phase detection AF.

The front camera has been updated, too. It now features faster shutter speeds, a higher maximum ISO, larger image output size and a wider field-of-view.
