Apple seeded the iOS 15.1 beta 3 to developers, today and the new beta update includes native support for ProRes video recording in the Camera app. The advanced video capture feature is exclusively available on the high-end iPhone 13 Pro models.
It is found that the latest beta update also includes a new ‘Auto Macro’ toggle to disable automatic camera switching to Ultra-Wide lens to take magnified images. Both of the new features will be available with iOS 15.1 public update; currently, the features are available to only users registered with Apple’s beta program.
