How many years before smartphones will be able to create video of approximately this quality without all the extra equipment?
We talk about computational photography; I suspect we’re moving to a time when our phones will have enough compute power to completely virtualize the act of taking photographs or shooting videos—that is, they will capture the 3D environment in total detail, then allow any change to lighting or camera position after the fact. Like portrait mode taken to its logical conclusion. So you could create videos like Apple’s but with zero extra equipment.
I’m guessing it’s at least 10 years but less than 25.
