Photos taken with iPhone 5s
Apple has unveiled today the new iPhone 5s. It features an upgraded camera which was tested by taking different photos.
The all-new 8 megapixel iSight camera features a larger f/2.2 aperture and a new, larger sensor with 1.5μ pixels for better sensitivity and low-light performance, resulting in better pictures. These improvements, along with the Apple-designed image signal processor in the A7 chip and the new Camera app in iOS 7, provide up to two-times faster auto-focus, faster photo capture, automatic image and video stabilization, and better dynamic range. iPhone 5s introduces the new True Tone flash—the world’s first for any camera—that variably adjusts color and intensity for over 1,000 combinations, so photos taken with a flash appear more natural. iPhone 5s also includes a new Burst Mode, Slo-Mo video with 120 fps, a new FaceTime HD camera for better low-light performance and audio-only FaceTime calls with iOS 7.

What iPhone 5S Home button might look like
A few days ago the photo of iPhone 5S packaging was published. The new device is expected to feature a new Home button - with a ring around it. According to rumors, this part is indeed the long-awaited fingerprint sensor.
A 3D artist Martin Hajek has rendered what the coming iPhone might look like if the image of Home button is correct. Martin's high-resolution picture features a LED illumination ring surrounding the Home button. However, no official statements have been made on this component, so we can only guess about its real appearance.
We will remind you again that Apple is expected to unveil the iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C on September 10. The iPhone 5S device is likely to boast dual-led flash for better low light pictures, fingerprint sensor, improved processor, new champagne/graphite color options, and more.
