Apple introduced various striking features in iPhone, like larger and faster sensors, live text in videos, safety check, etc. To help iPhone 14 users capture better videos, Apple introduced Action Mode in the camera settings. If you want to capture a smooth-looking video, then you no longer need stabilization tools and equipment like Gimbal. Instead, Apple’s Action Mode in iPhone 14 will lend you a helping hand to serve the purpose.
What is Action Mode on iPhone 14?
Action mode in Apple uses a hyper smooth technology that performs advanced digital stabilization in videos. When you turn on Action mode while recording the video, this technology will crop the camera view to a wide-angle view, and leaves the outer edges of the frame free for correcting significant shakes, vibrations, and unintended motions.
The feature also employs the full sensor with overscan and advanced roll correction that helps to capture incredibly stable videos in the middle of the action. Thus iPhone 14 with iOS 16 promises to deliver the video with a smooth look with great quality results.
It is to note that the Action mode feature is included as an additional feature on the camera app. When you get into video mode, you can access this feature by enabling the toggle in the upper left of the frame. The feature is similar to Cinematic, Slow-motion, and Time-lapse modes. Unlike Gimbal, you can enable the Action mode by simply toggling on without needing to carry extra gear. Additionally, the feature also supports HDR with Dolby Vision. Action Mode feature is designed to record videos up to 2.8K at 60 fps. When toggled off, it records in 4K.

To avail of the Action Mode feature, you don’t need to go for a Pro version of iPhone 14 models. The list of Apple iPhone Models that supports Action mode features includes iPhone 14, iPhone 14 Plus, and Pro models such as iPhone 14 Pro, and iPhone 14 Pro Max.
