and this is what we're doing on iPhone 7 plus it's plus a second camera there's now two 12 megapixel cameras built in the iPhone 7 plus one has the wide angle 28 millimeter lens the same as the iPhone 7 the other is a telephoto 56 millimeter lens but why have to complete cameras with two lenses well to explain it let me show you a traditional point-and-shoot or DSLR and how the lens can work as you know and we have many of these cameras in our lives you can change the focal length of your lens to zoom in that's how we get a zoom feature and that works great when you have a large camera where the big lens on it you can move in and out that isn't so great on the lens you want to put in something that goes in your pocket or your purse so how does it work the same as before you go into the camera app to take a picture but now there's a new button right there on the screen let me blow it up a teeny bit it says one X it's right above the shutter and when you go to take a picture it's using the wide-angle lens and taking a picture just as always but now with this button you can do one of two things first you can just tap it and it jumps to 2 X now you're taking a picture with a telephoto lens you're getting the same high quality 12 megapixel picture or the beautiful optical lens no software needed the second thing you can do is you can put your finger on it and drag across it and you can zoom from 1x to 5x as you go beyond 2x you're doing software zoom but now since it's starting with that telephoto lens the quality that image is four times better than before with software zoom in fact it's so much better we decided to push it even further all the way up to 10x so now
