When Apple introduced the iPhone 12 series, there were differences in the camera functions of the two Pro models. With the iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max, this is all changing. This means that both devices have the same camera functions.
Users who are interested in the camera features of the iPhone 13 Pro models don't necessarily have to buy the Max model this year to have all the features. The reason is that both Pro models have the same camera features. Here's an overview:

The information comes from Apple's product page Some will remember, for example, that optical image stabilization in the iPhone 12 series was reserved for the Pro Max. That means the iPhone 12 Pro missed out. This year, both Pro devices have the feature. Since the camera is now identical, the two models only differ in screen size (6.1″ and 6.7″) and battery life - cool, right?! All four iPhone versions can be pre-ordered from Apple from Friday, September 17th. Delivery is scheduled to begin on September 24th. (Image: Apple)
