Comparing the iPhone XS vs iPhone XS max isn't much good as they share the same camera. But how good is the iPhone XS for video. To test it out we compared iphone xs vs cinema camera and we used the Canon C200 and shot in Canon Raw lite.
To be honest the results were pretty impressive and without zooming in its hard to tell which is better. This would be pretty similars in a iPhone xs vs red cinmea camera or iPhone xs vs arri Alexa. Basically we looked at the iPhone XS vs Hollywood cinema camera.

The dynamic range on the iPhone is damn impressive! They went completely overboard with sharpening however.

[@clearlyed]

I agree 100% with you here. The iPhone XS camera footage its so impressive I just wish you could turn down the sharpening.

[@curtiswrigley]

Dynamic range was the dead givaway. Many Tree trunks and shadows black on iphone, lots of texture with the canon. And as he pointed out the iphone blew out the sky also. How is that good dynamic range? I guess good dynamic range for a phone

[@Wonder380]

Not really a fair comparison. One is graded and the other is straight from the camera. IF the iPhone footage was shot on a flat profile and graded afterward, the results will be a lot more comparable.

[@Djk0t]

Owen Wong fair comparison? To what? If you use both cameras to take just raw un processed clips there will be no base for any comparison. Can you compare a Ferrari with a golf gti? Well they are both cars. Now let’s see what is fair. iPhone is grading the images in the phone, while the cannon image is graded post. Which of the two is not fair? I will let you decide. You may argue, yeah why is the cannon image not graded in camera then? Well when people make movies they take 100 of clips during day, night, sun, clouds rain etc and they want to bring out variou emotions according to their script, in order to do that they need to have raw footage which they can adjust. By the way if you project an iPhone taken movie on a movie screen then you will see the shortcomings, like the golf vs Ferrari on the track.

That was in 4K 60. And the dynamic range still looked awesome.

I think computational photography/Smart HDR is what mostly differentiates the XS camera from the X. If you tried 4k 30 FPS instead, you'd get even better results. Would be interesting to see how the highlights look at 3:05 with Smart HDR working.

[@kermitrehab]

try changing the setting to 30fps, you will get more dynamic range, iPhone will activate smart HDR in video and that might help you with the loss of detail in the highlights.

Easily Camera 2 is the Cinema Camera... (Commented pausing at 2:14 while watching the video..) Here's what I noticed in camera 2... More Dynamic Range Accurate/true to life color Subject seperation/depth of objects Details No over-sharpen/ no over-saturation Leaves.... There is something about leaves and textures... Looks great.... And cinematic.... Note that I watched this, at 30% brightness on a 1080p Full HD+ IPS screen 6inch phone... Device Pocophone F1...

[@colingregg]

I’d like to see the same comparison with The Filmic Pro App.

[@yedijaluhur]

That sharpness though.. i wonder that at aleast iphone should include the setting in the phone to tune the sharpness, contrast, and many more. It doesnt matter if that menu included in the setting itself just for occasional professional use though. The dynamic range for high end phone camera this day was so good that sometimes i'd rather grab my phone for everyday use rather than DSLR camera.. i think thats because their small sensor enable the processor to work in background to process the photo, unlike full frame or apsc camera that produced high bit rate and large file so the processor speed cannot keep up with the processing and your shot is great, love it :)

[@elsamuel695]

Yeah, a lot of phones shoot way better videos and pictures if you turn off sharpening or use a third party camera app. It's sad, but it tricks people into believing there's more detail, but only when watching on the phone.

Sorry but your video seems to have more compression than many others on youtube, macroblocking is destroying it. I guess you should have uploaded at a better quality, bitrate or codec, this is looking too bad for any comparison.

I’m thinking that KZbins compression is killing it for you. Did you select the 4K version.

[@MarceloTezza]

@@clearlyed yes, 4k version on a 4k monitor at the refresh rate of the video frame rate, with no gpu noise reduction or color correction, compared to the "potato" channel it looks substancially more compressed, i noticed that your shots are really pushing the cameras since there areas with great amount of detail and relatively quick movements but i think it's substancially more co.pressed even when you take account the c200 scenes that shouldn't show as much.

@@clearlyed on the iphone i suspect you shot at 4k 60? Smart hdr is probably not working

Iphone dynamic range comes from 2 or more combined frames with different shutter speed.

[@clearlyed]

Which is completely amazing considering this is on a video and processed by a iPhone processor. So crazy. Imagineer if a cinema camera could do that.

[@Djk0t]

Photos In Color the processor you need to do such a thing will cost another 2-3k plus the extra ram before you consider the power required. That’s double the price. In 5 years though when 7nm chips are mainstream it will be possible at max 5 k. This is actually what has held photo companies back, processors. That’s why Sony and Panasonic are so much ahead. The problem with cameras is that their lifecycle is very long so tech development cannot compete with phones or tablets,therefore they cannot refresh fast enough at reasonable cost. For example gopro wich is not such a demanding device got in real trouble once they completed on product cycle . Who needs to buy a new GoPro every two years?

[@RayValdezPhotography]

You have the biggest tech company so of course their processing should be amazing. They cant compete with the sensor at all. So imagine what is in the future for bigger sensor cameras plus this processing. I could imagine a sony a7r6 with like 20 stops of DR and good colors

I could be wrong, but from reading through tutorial from guys who shoot landscape photography. They use ND to tone down reflection and sharpness of leaves, water, and other objects during bright sunlight. The footage does seem to be overexposed, but maybe due to sunlight and wrong setting. Moment lens do carry ND filter attachment for some of their lenses for selected popular phones. As in phone vs professional grade cameras/camcorder, only people in that profession or OCD people can tell a difference.

[@alexlubensky]

You've killed the footage with compression. Just compare your studio shots with your live footage - there's absolutely no detail on the live shots and a ton of detail on the studio ones. Dunno, was it KZbin issue (too many trees are a nightmare for low bitrate), or you did kill the footage with compression on purpose, but it's a really bad example to tell the difference. When exposed properly lots of cameras nowadays show a little to none difference, even an iPhone 6s can be matched to Arri Alexa Mini in ideal conditions (sunny day on a beach, sunny day in the snowy mountains). Unless you underexpose your footage a tiny bit, or overexpose - that's where all the hell of a difference comes out. Cinema cameras (which Canon is obviously not, hence the naming) contain color accuracy across the range. And, at last - cinema cameras are meant to be viewed on a cinema screen. Size hugely matters, you see tons of details on a big screen, while viewing on your phone or tablet - you mostly see none at all.

Yeah that was easier to tell apart than I expected honestly. The dynamic range visible through the clouds in the sky gave it away. If it wasn't for that, you'd have to look a lot closer. Cool comparison!

I could tell because of the artefacts in the leaves. On the Iphone they looked all mushy but on the C300 they looked crisp and nice.

Note that the XS Max doesn't use the close-up camera for taking video (unless you zoom in, maybe?) but this video looks like it was shot with the XS Max's wide-angle lens, which is the exact same lens found in the iPhone XR for like half the price, if any of you are thinking of getting one.

Amazing and very educational. Thank you

[@leonik3932]

I be honest..this is a great video ...thanks for doing this kind of stuff...now I’m gonna grab an iPhone XS 👍

I think many people down in comments took the video in the wrong way: i don't think anyone here wanted to tell us that an iphone could replace a professional camera, it's just amazing that it can record something that is COMPARABLE to anything shot by a Canon c200 (in daylight). Of course we will never see a blockbuster recorded with all iPhone XS, but still the result showed here are amazing for a camera phone and i think that's the whole focus of this video.

That was impressive, that A12 Neural Engine is doing a lot of work!!

So simple, great comparison. I/we appreciate it! Thank you.

Greetings from Germany. Great Video, thanks 🙏🏻. I tried to do this with a 6DM2 in my last Video and the one the comments was: why?! Why the comparison? So i‘m glad I found yours. I find it helpful. Thanks again. ...and I would be very happy, winning your LUTs. I would make a Video about it! 😉

Very good comparison I have to make a decision what I am going to use.

[@dubstreet07]

Awesome really bro, wanted exactly this... Keep it up 👍

[@stianthomassen6693]

I guessed right :) it was the sharpness and blown out highlights that gave the iPhone away for me. But as someone else commented, I would like to see how well the iPhone do night 😉
