Here’s how future iPhones could use camera depth data to create impressive Portrait Mode videos<div class="feat-image">
</div><p>One of the headline features of the dual camera system in recent iPhones is
Portrait Mode, an effect that simulates a
DSLR-style shallow depth of field by intelligently blurring the background of your photos. Apple took the
feature a step further with the
iPhone X, adding Portrait Mode selfies and introducing simulated
Portrait Lighting.</p>
<p>While these features are currently limited to still photos, future iPhones could someday use the
same technology to bring the depth effect to videos, a stunning look currently only possible with high-end video gear or a considerable amount of work in post-production. This feature could be a game changer for videographers, editors, and consumers alike, who have already
embraced the iPhone as a
serious filmmaking tool. With some effort, the effect is actually possible with today’s iPhones. Here’s how it can be done.</p>
