How to shoot with the iPhone 7 Plus's telephoto lensThe iPhone 7 Plus lets you shoot images at 2x magnification with its 56mm-equivalent lens. Here's how!
When you pick up an iPhone 7 Plus, you're also getting a great multi-camera system to take photographs and shoot video. By default, you shoot with the iPhone's 12-megapixel wide-angle f/1.8 lens, but you can also amp up the magnification and take photos with the new 56mm-equivalent "telephoto" lens — both in the Camera app, or in a variety of great third-party apps.
How to shoot with the telephoto lens in the Camera app
Open the Camera app and select Photo mode.
Tap on the 1x button to switch to 2x mode.
Frame and shoot your photo!
As long as you're shooting in a brightly-lit area, the Camera app will automatically select the 56mm-equivalent lens when you switch to 2x magnification; if you're in a dimly-lit area, however, you won't be able to use the it and it will automatically switch to digitally-zoomed wide-angle shot.
