A place for Apple news, rumors, and discussions.
Hey! I recently bought the iPhone 15pro and when I use the „focus“ in the camera App by tapping with my finger on the screen a „f“ appears in the corner. I can activate it, but I can’t find out what for. It looks like the sign for „camera aperture“ (I don’t know if this is the right word, it’s „Blende“ in German). What does it do? I didn’t find anything on the apple help pages.
Can’t believe no one said „f” around and find out.
Because that’s lame af
Yes that’s just what Reddit needs, more terrible dad jokes and lame puns in a thread where someone’s asking an actual question lol
You can pay respect with it
Think of it as the control of background blur (bokeh). The smaller the number, the higher the blur. Play around with it to see the effect. Personally I like higher f-stops (less blur)--it looks more natural.

F stop (It is a camera suture measuring unit )
Aperture.
“fake” aperture setting. it adds blur artificially after the photo has been taken to mimic the aperture thats been chosen since this has a fixed aperture

It’s the Fanta button
It’s camera aperture. Smaller numbers mean a larger aperture that lets in more light, bigger numbers mean the aperture is smaller and lets in less light
The iPhone doesn't have an adjustable aperture. There is no change to the amount of light being let in.
Aperture
it means FIGHTING GOLD
That’s the “I can’t take photos” button. Apple makes you admit your inadequacies by putting an F in the chat before taking over and taking the photo for you. /s
i love how most don’t realize phones have fixed apertures lol. anywho the f means it’s saving the depth info so that you can apply the portrait effect after taking the pic
do you know where this is? It looks amazing
Sure. It’s in Hurghada. Egypt.
As people said.. aperture. F stop. Lower number = more blur (portrait) Higher number = less blur (landscape)

In case you want to pay respects

Aperture
Takes photos in french
On the 15 series, you can capture photos with depth data in non-portrait mode. The icon turns yellow to indicate depth capture during regular photos when either a person, dog, or cat is detected, or when you tap to focus on a subject, prompting the camera to use portrait mode for depth.
You press it to pay respects
It’s the Fanta button
F is for focal length. F/stop= focal length / diameter of aperture. Example f stop is 2.8 so 2.8 =50mm/ diameter. 2.8/50= .056, 2.8 at 100mm is 2.8/100 = .028
Good book called digital photography for dummies It makes it easy to understand these new technologies As well as standard photographic concepts and methods Highly recommended
The “f” in f-stop means finestra, Italian for window. The larger the f-stop opening (1.4, 2.8) the less depth of field. The higher the f-stop (16,22) the more depth of field. F8 is probably your sharpest focus
Aperture!!!
F
It means Apple is paying respect to you
it will solve algebra equations such as f(x)=3(0.54)^x
Click it and you’ll know
