    How different is the 5x optical zoom on the 15 PM vs whatever the 15 Pro has?

    I’m considering the 15 Pro so I can pass down my XS to my mom. The one thing that sucks about the XS is the inability to take low light night photos. I can’t take pictures of the moon or night sky. Zoomed phots look pretty bad too.

    How much better are the 15 Pro cameras in low light? How do the cameras on the Pro vs PM compare? I don’t understand all the jargon with camera lenses and lengths.

      I’m in the same position. I’m been asking for a new mini for ages. If it doesn’t, I think I’ll bite the bullet and upgrade to the Pro next year

    I will miss the 3x lens a lot. It’s by far the best for detailed pictures of small things. The 0.5 distorts angles if you get close for macro mode and the 1x cant get close enough without blurring the image.

      Ya, I would way rather a 3x with the sensor the size of the 1x and an increase to the maximum aperture
