Announced last week, Apple's new iPhone 7 Plus is packed with numerous new features. But one of the most well-received upgrades is its dual camera system.
Apple claims that the smartphone will offer the 'best photography ever in a smartphone.' Of course, no one can support that claim since reviews of the phone are yet to be published.
**But thanks to these first real-world images from the device, we can now get a look at the sort of images the iPhone 7 Plus can produce.**

Photos looked bright and colourful thanks to the phone's 12-megapixel camera that offers some pretty impressive zooming capabilities

The iPhone 7 Plus uses two separate cameras to address existing flaws in iPhones' photo quality. **It has one 12-megapixel camera with a 28mm f1.8 lens and another 12-megapixel camera with a 56mm f2.8 lens.**
The latter lens has been referred to as a 'telephoto' lens. **It prevents distortion and shrinking of the subject in images which sometimes happens with the normal wide-angle (28mm) lens.**

**The device is reportedly capable of performing better in low light situations and producing photos with more accurate colours.** Of course, we don't see that in these photos because they were shot in daylight.
