After four years with an iPhone 12, I finally upgraded to an iPhone 16 Pro. Thus far I love the new phone and especially love the camera functionality. The zoom feature is amazing! While standing on my back deck a couple of days ago, I took this closeup of the moon. Came out sharper than I expected.
