Modahaus has posted a macro photography comparison of the iPhone 5 vs. the iPhone 4S.

The brief reveals we have over 30 pieces to shoot including necklaces, bracelets, earrings, rings and vintage & rare watches. Now we've arrived at the location I have 1.5 days to set up studio and shoot the lot. The images will be used in a printed catalogue and online. I'll be using a 'focus stacking' technique with my DSLR and I'm going to experiment with that technique using the iPhone 5 and 4S using Camera+ App. * The reason I'm not using a tripod with the iPhone's is, as yet I don't have one to fit the iPhone 5 and I want the comparisons with the iPhone 4S to be on a level playing field. I literally had to sneak in these shots in-between the DSLR shots when my client was away making coffee or taking calls. So let's have a look!

The report finds that although both devices take good pictures the iPhone 5 comes out on top. Notably, the iPhone 5 appears to have a wider color gamut that helped differentiate the different colored sapphires.
