This is a great ad for a feature that I bet a lot of people don't know about, although it doesn't specifically point out it needs to be one taken with depth information. Pre-iPhone 15 Pro, that was just a Portrait Mode photo but now the iPhone will detect these scenarios and capture the data anyway for manipulating later.
When the feature was announced alongside the iPhone 15 Pro, it came across as a feature for only that device but turns out it works retrospectively with photos that have the depth info. I tried on photos taken with the iPhone 8 Plus, which has Portrait Mode but no LiDAR sensor. Nothing changed there, but Portrait Mode photos on my iPhone 14 Plus worked a treat.
I know I'm asking for too much now, but it would be great if you could specify two points. Sometimes you want the depth of field at the back but the object is bulbous and so choosing a single spot doesn't cover the situation adequately and then adjusting the depth via the ƒ button just brings everything into focus when it's just a large subject you're trying to focus on.
