Now I saw this twitter thread thanks to Scott Simmons at ProVideoCoalition and this post.
And here is Jan Kaiser’s eskocz channel on YouTube.
Now you need to look at the thread and see more than just the first post.
Wow, I am blown away that the depth map is only 320×180, and only works so close up.
I was also wondering why the Pro didn’t use Lidar to enhance the depth map, but while it shows allot more depth than the cinematic mode, it is also fluttery and noisy, so I can see that it would cause some serious issues in a depth map.
And the true depth on the front camera would be useless for a depth map.
Between the 1080 30p and low resolution depth map I think I am OK with skipping the iPhone 13 and seeing what the 14 will offer. The technology is impressive, but I want to see future generations.
