APPLE SPECIAL EVENTThe Night Mode indicator
on the iPhone 11 Pro MaxWhile I got my hands on this feature, I was in a
brightly lit demo room at Apple Park – so I had to cover
the lens of the iPhone 11 Pro’s cameras until it thought
things had darkened. As a result, I wasn’t able to take
any test images. Apple’s sample images look promising,
but of course they do. I look forward to trying this
feature out in person.
Oh, another fun note: according to the Apple
employee I spoke to in the demo area, Night Mode isn’t
just for quick handheld shots. If you put the iPhone on
a tripod so that it’s stable – and it’ll know, because it’s
equipped with plenty of motion sensors – it will let you
take even longer exposures, which would be handy for
outdoor night shoots, for example. So there’s more to
Night Mode than you might have thought.
