Video Description

I feel like most iPhone camera comparisons are only between 1 generation, where it honestly barely changes for the most part, so before I trade in my iPhone 11 I thought I'd use it to show how much iPhone camera's have improved within 6 generations while comparing it to my new base model iPhone 17. Also again, thank you fellos and fellas for the recent support 😎 very cool stuff and I appreciate it -- 🎵 Where I get my music (30 days free): https://share.epidemicsound.com/wx8uzb 📸 Gear I use: https://kit.co/CarterNolan/my-gear-for-creating 📲 All of my links: https://linktr.ee/CarterN Carter Nolan is a participant in various affiliate programs - the creator may earn a commission when there's a purchase from the links.
