The iPhone 16’s rumored new Capture button is said to be capable of recognizing various levels of pressure to imitate the two-step shutter button found on dedicated digital cameras, as per a leaker on Weibo.
Last year, MacRumors was the first to disclose the existence of a new button on iPhone 16 models called the “Capture Button.” According to Mark Gurman of Bloomberg, the Capture Button will have the capability to record video, and The Information mentioned that the Capture Button will bring additional features such as the ability to zoom in and out by swiping left and right on the button, as well as focusing on subjects and adjusting lighting. Now, Weibo user “Instant Digital” has verified that the primary function of the Capture Button will be to initiate photo or video capture, while a light press will facilitate adjustments. This is akin to the functionality present on most DSLRs and mirrorless cameras, where the shutter button serves a dual purpose: half-pressing locks focus or exposure, and fully pressing captures the image. The source also stated that the introduction of the Capture button reinforces the ergonomic design of the iPhone during video recording. As previously reported when examining iPhone 16 prototypes, the Capture Button will be located at the bottom right of the iPhone 16. It will replace the mmWave antenna on US iPhone models, with the mmWave antenna being relocated to the left side of the device underneath the volume and Action buttons. Non-US models do not feature the mmWave antenna that would necessitate relocation to accommodate the Capture Button. Instant Digital has a mixed track record in terms of accurately revealing details of Apple’s plans. The source was the first to mention the return of the Yellow color option for the iPhone 14, the addition of Spatial Video recording on the iPhone 15 Pro, and minor refinements to the Apple Watch Series 9, as well as being the sole source of rumors suggesting that the iPhone 15 Plus might feature a tempered glass back. However, the source also mentioned various features of iOS 17 and the release of the new iPad Air in October 2023, which have not yet materialized.
