The biggest upgrade for photography this year is the telephoto camera on the iPhone 17 Pro now has a larger 48mp sensor. This is my 5th year in a row comparing the newest iPhone to my daily professional camera, the Canon R5 in real world situations. The telephoto isnโ€™t the only upgrade this year, Apple also introduced a brand new selfie cam which weโ€™ll also take a look at. But, as a photographer, the $1100 dollar question is, will this years camera upgrade impress like they did three years ago. Is the iPhone 17 Pro worth the upgrade from last years iPhone 16 Pro or previous? We'll answer all of that right here in this video.
