Apple is planning to include a more advanced image stabilization component in the high-end 2020 iPhone models, Digitimes reports today.
The iPhone has included optical image stabilization for a while now, and sensor shift hardware improvements continues that trend. Whereas optical image stabilization shift around the lens element, sensor shift moves the sensor inside the camera module directly.
On iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Pro, the telephoto and wide angle cameras have optical image stabilization but the ultra-wide lens does not.
MacDailyNews Take: Photography is obviously, uh… in focus at Apple — and rightfully so, as it is a major selling point of pocketable computers misnamed as “phones” worldwide.

A take I can agree with.
That’s good to know.
Thank you.
Apple should make a dedicated camcorder that runs iOS, but has a larger lens then can be in an iPhone.
One star? Really?
Apple’s imaging technology is so amazing, but you can only use it on cameras with tiny 1cm lenses! a 10 cm lens would let in 100 times as much light! Meanwhile DSLRs are a total pain in the ass to use. Steven Soderbergh made a film using an iPhone 7 Plus. The market is wide open.
