For many years, iPhones have offered some of the best cameras available in a smartphone.oneto find. However, competition is Applu on the heels, which is why they are constantly working on improving the cameras for iPhones. However, at least according to the patents, this is definitely happening. It should be noted that many of them are really very interesting and if they were to be implemented, Apple would add an interesting revolution to his credit. We will share one of them with you now.
Apple as of last week, he owns an interesting patent that deals with the exchangeability of the rear camera lens. The patent itself, although its text is ambiguous and confused, has several versions. The first of them is rather simple and describes an additional lens with adhesive tapes that is placed on the additional lens of the iPhone. Another option is somewhat more interesting and describes a kind of separate module in which individual lenses are placed. It should have built-in coils and other sensors that would ensure, for example, automatic focusing. The entire system would be attachable to an iPhone. You can see the graphic form in the gallery on the side of this paragraph.

The entire patent sounds like science fiction, so as always it is appropriate to say that it is only a patent application for which Apple may never start working. However, it can offer us an interesting insight into the fact that Apple constantly thinking about improving cameras. And who knows, maybe in a few years we will actually see removable lenses and in another few years we will see them as a completely standard part of smartphones.
This will never work with mobile phones. People are too lazy to keep changing things (in this case, using different lenses for different shots), and this is actually indicated by the fact that most amateur photographers use a single universal lens on their SLR camera and do not consider anything else, only that it is as easy to use as possible. Yes, the lenses are quite large and some are heavy, which is not a problem with mobile phones, but they are also easy to lose, the user accidentally drops them, etc.
You have a brother, Mark. But he is not an amateur photographer as an amateur. I'm an amateur photographer, I've been taking pictures for several years, it's my hobby, and I have x lens at home that I change and change regularly. Universal lenses such as the 17-200 are very useful. If they are not bright. But it's completely unnecessary for mobs.
I think it's stupid. The new iPhones have IP68 protection, I filmed underwater with the XS at the seaside this summer, rode kamikaze slides, etc. So I can't imagine that iPhone 12 or 13 had some removable lenses with adhesive tapes.
I'm more of the opinion that Apple This is how you have competition. Probecause most of the patents and prototypes were copied and modified by the "Chinese spineless rat" competition. Whether it was 3D / Force touch, curved display or the type and system of cameras on the iP11 Pro.
There will probably be screw-on lenses, the question is whether those lenses will meet the water-resistant standard, etc. It's like a mirror. Just because the body is durable does not mean that the lens is too. Some are with others not.
But to be honest, just useless crap on the back of a mob will never replace an SLR
