For example, it would be possible to finely control the exposure, the white balance and the development, but above all to finally adjust the shutter speed and the ISO.

Film with several cameras at the same time, the other asset of iPhone 17 pro

Finally, Apple would also tackle applications specializing in video, by natively offering Multi-camera recording. The opportunity to film simultaneously with several cameras from a simple iPhone.
