For the first time, users can take portraits without having to switch to Portrait mode.

Also, for greater creative control, users can adjust the focus point after the photo has been taken. Apple also offers improvements to Night mode, including sharper details and more vivid colours. When lighting is bright or uneven, new Smart HDR captures subjects and the background with more true-to-life renderings of skin tones, while ensuring that photos have brighter highlights, richer midtones, and deeper shadows when viewed in the Photos app.
